dosent it?
that would mean the winner actually cost himself more money by placing a
covering bid
i have seen an auction end where the winners name appears as the first and
second bidder but with the same amount
so in this case it should read
winner...1150
winner...1150

not a higher price for the same winning bidder

i realize it is not a big difference (only about 3 Euro)espcially after the
price this baby sold for..but its still odd

Outer Limits Regards
