okay, at first glance this response makes absolutely no sense. but, let's take it one step at a time:


"The repeated bids that you see there are someone trying to put a number of individual bids in, trying to become the high bid"

unless no one else bids, doesn't it only take one bid to become the high bid?


"but because of the proxy bidding, he kept getting out bid each time he did this,"

kept getting outbid by whom? himself?


"because someone else had a higher max bid amount"

so, someone else was also using a proxy bidder, who had a higher max bid? but it never out bid any of this guys bids... unless it was Spunky1, who outbid him finally, but that still doesn't explain why pubenemy would keep outbidding himself.
