what happened with 230302450892 ?

I didn't get it despite the fact that my limit was superior to the winning bid.

The bid increment in that range is $25. Please see http://pages.ebay.com/help/buy/bid-increments.html#how and you will understand.

Thanks. So I misunderstood the following:

"Can I be outbid by less than a full increment?
You can be outbid by less than a full increment. A winning bidder's maximum bid needs only to exceed the next highest maximum bid by one cent. "

I suppose this is only for bids previously placed.

The bid increment applies to the current auction price not to the current highest bid (which you do not know until it is outbid). I think this is the source of your confusion.
