Decided to bid on an auction, no issues there..
Today I see a bid with a user name I had not seen before, so I clicked the name.
Some how it comes up as "No user profile".
I guess they deleted their account ?
But the price still bumped up above their bid amount as I had entered a higher total.

So if there is no user then the bid price should go back down right?

I'm confused.. lol

Hi Charles

Perhaps Herb has already removed it since you posted but I only see 3 active auctions and all 3 appear to be from active accounts.

Do you still see it?

The bid is gone now, but the auto bid is still bumped.
Not that $10 is an issue, but it should revert back to the previous bid.
Don't know if that could be programed in tho ??
Having used other auction sites (fleaBay) where people bid on their own items to raise the prices, I know it can be hard to deal with
