You know its bad when a user bids over 50 times in the same auction and loses! That is exactly what happened in the auction on the USMC captured Japan book. I can't say that I've read about the "incremental bidding" strategy in any of the forums or eBay chat rooms that I have visited. However, some bidders like to just keep dinking their bid up a few bucks over and over thinking that they need to slowly inch over the top. Many of these auctions saw some furious back and forth between just a few bidders in classic eBay auctions.
