Hmmm ... that's interesting. I never thought of what would happen if you weren't happy with your own max and then made another, higher bid. You wouldn't think that ebay would be set up such that a bidder would compete against himself but then again, any excuse to raise the final value fee and make a little more money for itself I could see ebay doing. In my case, I just thought it fishy that twice, with the same sellers items, my max was exactly matched by another bidder making me the winner but at my max price. But as the other poster pointed out, it had to be coincidence ... I guess.
