Outbid - what's the reason?

[Roger]

dear admin of gixen,

I have lost 2 of these auction under item number 190466555428 and 250723448838. May I know what was the reason I was outbidded and what does bid under asking price mean? Also by how many seconds was I outbidded?

TQ

hello..

I already understand what 'bid under askign price' mean. What I'm confuse is that the amnt that was palced by gixen is the exact amnt that I placed as 'bid' in the gixen main page. But does not that mean the maximum bid I were willing to bid? Does not gixen bid the lowest amnt (according to the last price) but below the maximum bid I had input?

Roger, Gixen submits your maximum bid to eBay seconds before auction end, and then eBay proxy bidding takes over to determine the amount needed to win. Gixen does not bid incrementally, eBay does that.
