Location: Phoenix AZ | I don't understand how it's at $1600. The first bidder put in a max of $1000. How can the second (and only other) bidder have jacked it to $1600? Even if the second bidder put in $1600 as his maximum, wouldn't the high bid currently only be at listed as $1005. ??? |

I don't know... |

Location: Latitude 39.56819, Longitude -105.080066 | First bidder might have entered a high bid of $1599, second bidder enters a high bid of $1800 so the system jumps immediately to $1600 as the 2nd bid (that beats the 1st bid).
or something like that. |

Location: Florida Central Gulf Coast | I think stephent28 is correct. The $1000 bid was his/her last valid high bid. eBay doesn't show the intermediate automatic bids to avoid pages of bids. |

I'm sure it wasn't yellow when they put it on, but they shoulda known it was gonna turn that way...
Isn't carbon-fiber bulletproof? |

Correct. The reserve was $1,600 and the second bidder put in at least that much for his high bid, so it automatically went to the reserve amount. If the second bidder's high bid was less than the reserve, then it would only be showing $1,005. |

Location: big island | confession time: i was the second bidder on this guitar. i have requested the seller to cancel my bid because my wife really needs a new computer for her business and we cannot afford both items at this time. not only that...but i was overcome with guilt as i did not first inquire with her about bidding on this one. the seller is a gentleman. i hope someone here will buy and enjoy it. |

| So now the bid is 'one cent'... why do people do that? Sheer boredom?... That couldn't be any kind of rational strategy on a $2000 guitar?... :rolleyes: |
