The 'strange bidding' looks like nibbling rather than anything sinister.My TV is broken!

Is it only available at Amazon, its amazing the number of people who buy from Ebay but don't either check or know about Amazon.

Nibbling is when you place lots of tiny bids. It's not a very good bidding strategy and is unlikely to win you an auction.My TV is broken!
