Don't you hate it when that happens?

One thing that I myself forget at eBay is that you can state a maximum bid
and the machine will automagically bid for you in the stated increments
until the auction either ends or your maximum bid limit is reached.

I am writing this on a computer I got there last year at about half the
going price that way. As eBay has gotten popular it is getting harder to
just watch the auctions and bid yourself. In fact, I no longer shop there
anymore as I think the prices have gone postal.
