Default Mastro & Other auctions..why the 10% bid increments??

Posted By: boxingcardman

instead of the compounded percentages. With the vig included, each raise in Mastro is a compounded 12% increase over the last one. As a plaintiff's lawyer, I can't do anything except divide by 1/3 . It is a lot easier for those of us who are mathematically challenged liberal arts majors to add $5 or $50 to the bid than to try and do all that friggin algebra.
