am not as bright as you guys but one bidder making the price at a public auction going from $1300.00 to $1800.00 does NOT work for me .......can someone draw me a picture ?
The most obvious answer is that the bidder who withdrew bid several times against the bidder who originally bid $1300, but continued to bid the lot up. So when the one bidder had to withdraw, those other bids were nullified. So the lot reverted to the $1300 bid.
