I didn't want to rush around this morning to try to get to Stamm Equipments going out of business auction,the weather wasn't good anyway,so I logged on for the online auction. I'd gone on yesterday and put my maximum bid on 2 items,$500 on the first one,$750 on the second. I had the audio on today so I could hear the auctioneer live. My first item came up and it started out at 500,went up,the screen told me I was out,click "bid now" to bid again. Well,I wasn't going any higher,sight unseen,it brought $1100. No big deal. I lost the audio before the second item came up,so I couldn't hear what was going on live,tried everything I could to get it back,but the item started out at 200. The computer did what it was supposed to,raised my bid up automatically,I had it at 750. Then it said somebody onsite had bid 800,it was making noises at me wanting me to bid again. I didn't,wasn't going to go any higher. It said it sold for 800 to an onsite buyer,then it was like the computer locked up,it wouldn't advance to the next item. Almost a minute went by and it started flashing and making noises and said I bought it for 750. Since I didn't have any audio,I don't know if it was just a trick to try to get me to raise my own bid or what? I HOPE they're honest and just didn't have the live,onsite bid that they thought they had. I hate to think they were trying to skin me.
