And, from my view, an excellent milksop for the buyer. I figured it saved
me $15+ on the $35 '030 accelerator I bought -- most of them usually go

hours away. This is why the buy it now is so
effective, as it puts your
item into play immediately.
Am I missing something? I thought if the item's last bid

until $10 and if someone else bids $6, I get it for $6 plus
the bid auto-increment, right?
