How can an auction start at $1, have 6 bids, all by the same person for $1
and the high bid STILL be $1???

Can anyone splain this?

I can field this one (having had the same thing happen).

Opening bid is $1. You bid $1.. later, you decide to up the bid to say, $3,
so you do. The bid still stays at $1 because no one has bid against you. You
keep thinking... maybe I'll bid a bit more.. so you go to $5, $8, $10... so
your max bid goes up, but the current bid still stays at $1. But your new
bids show up as new bids in the bidding list.
