Yes the $1 and $2 bid increases were getting annoying to me too ...
Much welcomed someone who understood business to the thread
Those mainstream boards can be money makers though - I didn't expect it but I got $600 through SP for hostingcommunity.com - not a bad domain, had it in my big head it was worth $1000 easy ... but I am guessing that was end user price.
Then again I am horrible at this domain thing, except knowing even @ $500 someone gets a deal on yourfantasy.com
