Spoke with Cust Svc Mgr and she told me that the proxy box was unchecked, so it went to a straight bid, so evidently somehow I unchecked the box, and bid myself up $350. I did explain to her that it was unintentional and I have the proof of email where I thought I was putting in simply a max bid. Confusing to me. One click and I did all this... She is checking with the "owners" to see if there is anything they can do. I reminded her I put in the last 2 bids. ($3200 & $3,550) It was 2:14am, and I wanted to go to bed.... Putting in a max bid was a small measure of protection... Of course no one else bid over $3,000.
