WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What happened there ? Are there plugins that these guys are using or is that all automated by ebay ?

I'm confused
People (including me) do this CRC, i always bid only on items at the very last minute as it usually guarantees that i get the item for less money unless the original bidder has bid more than my final amount.

In which case i dont get tempted to bid again at a higher level than i was originally intending to pay.

I've not seen anything that does this automatically though..
