another situation
I had a different experience with another MAJOR auction house in an auction that ended recently.
I was bidding on a lot for a friend who was not registered with the AH.
He was watching two lots but could only afford to win one. He bid on both to get started and when bidding exceeded his comfort level on one lot, he had me bid higher on the second lot. We were the high bid most of the day. As it got further along he asked me to up his bid to his top price.
He was high bid at $7500 and asked me to up it to $8000 because his limit was $10K with the BP. I went online and THOUGHT I had raised his bid. I did not check to see if I got a confirmation.
When the auction was over and the lot sold for $8000 we thought he won. But NO!
When I called to inquirer I was told you can not raise your own bid one increment. I had never heard of this before. I was told it was how the system was set up and that there had been other instances like mine in the past.
Anyone else run into anything like this?
