When you place a maximum bid, you are indicating the highest amount you are willing to pay for an item. The auction system will automatically submit bids on your behalf, beginning at the current bid amount and increasing only as necessary to maintain your position as the highest bidder, up to and not exceeding your stated maximum bid.

Please note the following:

You may win the item for less than your maximum bid if no other competing bids reach your maximum amount.
If you are already the high bidder at the increment immediately below your maximum bid, and another bidder places a bid equal to your maximum bid, the item may sell for the same amount as your maximum bid. This occurs because bidders cannot bid against themselves, and the auction system will not advance your bid beyond your stated maximum.
All bidding activity is handled automatically by the auction system and is designed to ensure fair and impartial bidding.
For example, your max bid is $200 and you are currently winning at $175. If someone places the next bid at $200, they will win that item because the next bid will be beyond your max bid.
