Hi Martin, My recollection is that there was a jump bid (a bid higher than the Asked for next increment required to bid) and I did accept it and went Right to the next increment called for at that level. Perhaps there was a bid I missed? Or, perhaps you expected me To then require the next bid to be an increment equal to the jump bid? If the latter, I explained some auctions past that while people were Always welcome to jump bid (usually a technique used to "shock and Awe" potential competitors) there would not be a following requirement Of equal degree, but would only be whatever the level increment indicates. If the former, and I really did somehow miss a jump bid, I apologize To all concerned. It is not in the interest of anyone to do so. Sincerely, Michael
