It looks like bidding is off, if I understand bidding correctly.
Someone, on your test bid, named ladym (Mookie?) bid something like $4000.
Current bid is at $42.80. I bid $125.05.  I lose the proxy bidding war,
but the new top bid is $125.05.  Shouldn't that be $125.05 + smallest
increment?

Hrmmm... I'll check into that.  I seem to remember the proxy bidding
stuff being a little funky before.

BTW: I didn't see the increment mentioned anywhere.

Well, it doesn't say "the increment is a quarter (or whatever it is)"
but it does tell you the least amount you can bid, which is the
current bid plus the increment.

Hrmmm... guess it's time for me to change my sig.
