Didn't win the bid and don't see it my buy summary with e

[greenparrot14]

Hi,

I tried bidding for 260790656502 and set the maximum to GBP 30. But I didnt win, even though the winning bid was GBP 30

And I cannot even see that I bid on the item (either on the item's bids) or on the Bid Summary in Ebay.

Can you tell me why? This is not the first time this has happened for my ebay bids.

Google for "ebay bid increments" and you will find the page that explains it. It's not enough that your bid is higher, it has to be higher for a certain increment.

When bid amounts are the same, the earliest one wins. That's why you lost and your bid was not accepted by eBay.
