Fascinating last four bids on this eBay lot.

The bids including the last four. How one for the same amount as the other, but made a second earlier, posted later......?

Gixen.

Due to the blocked snipes on occasion, I noticed they have been often placing two from different servers. I noticed this start happening a few months ago. It must have something to do with server traffic as it only happens about a third of the time.

Sometimes, when an auction is ending, I have my desktop computer and phone open to the auction page. It is not uncommon for them to be a second off with respect to time remaining. I wonder if something like that is playing a role?

Gixen lets you schedule a backup bid from a 2nd server. It's only supposed to post the 2nd bid if the 1st one fails, but sometimes both bids get made.

Seems like both of my bids get made every time with Gixen. You do have to have a paid account to get that service. I’m pretty sure with the free account you just get a single bid, and hope it goes through.

Yep, I use Gixen and pay for the service. It registers two bids for me every time.

I set my backup bid to come in one second after the main bid. I am guessing you two gentlemen set both bids for the same time.
