Forty he had a high bid.
Say the bid at the time he bid was $700, and he bid say $900.
Well then his bid only goes $5 over whatever the bid is, the rest is in reserve.
So the showing bid is $705, then next bidder comes along and say adds $5.
then your reserve automatically bids over him and it goes to $715.
Unless a bidder bids more than what you already said your high bid is you will still win.

Does that help any?? Hope I explained that well enough.

Most times if I find something I would like, I just bid what I'm willing to spend and then wait.
On occasion, if it's something I really like I may bid again.

Possible highest price that bidder is willing to pay? So computer will automatically bid up to max. Just guessing, don't know how these online auctions work.

I could see paying that for a entry or mid level competition gun, but for a OTC standard barrel/ sights/ stocks, that's crazy.
