$50 HMMWV in a crate?

I agree with you aximony so why don't you divest yourself of all of your worldly MV possessions and begin to aspire toward a more unselfish, incorruptible and morally righteous existence. I would help you in this quest by volunteering myself to unburden you of these possessions at no charge to you. I assure you that as soon as my fully loaded flatbeds withdraw a great sense of relief will wash over you. I, on the other hand, will bear the shackles of unbridled moral turpitude.

I agree with him and its' OK.... I stayed in a Holiday INN last night!

The bid was not at $700 and somebody entered a bid of $5,700 and the bid automatically went up that much. GL doesn't work like that. Somebody else had to be bidding aginst them for the bid to go that high. In other words, somebody else had to have bid $5,600 (or whatever the next lowest bid increment is).

An auction is free enterprise at it's best. Everybody has a chance to bid whatever they wish. To be courteous and not bid on something to let somebody else have it at a lower price is accually illegal if both parties have knowledge of it. It's called collusion.
