If your bid is lower than the current person's max bid, the log will show your bid + I believe the current max bidder's bid moved up to whatever you bid + increment (or they add a new bid for the max bidder, I don't remember which). Could still be someone using a sniping service, but having it attempt multiple bids instead of 1 max bid seems kind of odd.

Thats what I figured, but it seemed SO automated going up $10 every half a second and it started with like 10 seconds left. Like I can understand reentering a max bid 3 or 4 times, but over 10? Anyways I lost the auction
Time to move on!
