I know this may have been explained before, but what kind of F'n idiot does this? |
Hey Todd - the reason may be that the guy is bidding from the Ebay app on his phone. It lets you place the next bid with just a tap and no typing. So if a person is feeling lazy they may just keep tapping each $1.00 increment until they gets to be high bidder. It's a minuscule amount easier than coming out of taping mode and typing 5 characters.
I bid from my phone a lot and maybe if it's early in the auction and I'm waiting for someone and not doing much I will tap and tap my bids. Not too often but I have done it this way.
Not in this case tho. Good luck.
