Some of those bids, but not most of those. You couldn't do those tiny increments that way.

It's basically one guy getting the high bid, and then upping his own max pennies at a time, while HE has the high bid.

Up the bid count, intimidate other bidders, I don't know the purpose. I see it all the time, but it's usually done closer to the end of auctions and then maybe 5 or 6 consecutive max bids at the most, before they peter out.

Looks like this guy had some time on his hands.
