Need help with site function testing

Guys, I'm wondering if you might be able to help me out with something. I'm in the process of setting up an auction area that will work somewhat like eBay. I have an ad up that I need some help testing with. If you wouldn't mind, please place bids on this item. You're not bound to any purchase on this item, but I do want to see if the bidding is working properly. Your help is greatly appreciated. The ad is here:

hahaha. It's a piece of junk running windows 3.11 but if you want it that bad, then go for it. LOL

Actually, I'm only going to do one bidding category for now. I'll keep it up for a few weeks and see how things go. If it works out, then I'll integrate it with all of the categories.

It seems to have an automatic escalation built in to the bidder's maximum.
Is that correct?

Just a comment... if possible, can the fields be split into dollars and cents? (field dot field) Might be a little more intuitive I reckon.

My 1st bid did not enter the correct amount, and the 2nd bid of $130,00 did not take.

JKM, you win. lol

Just kidding.

Well, if you guys bid on items, you'll be obligated to buy it. So before you bid on a real item, remember that. i'm still working on this guys, so feature requests right now aren't being considered. Once i get it up and running, then I'll consider each request. Thanks for the help.

It's in testing, but you can use it. You'll just have to report any bugs to me so I can fix them. Right now, it's in its own category but if it works ok, I plan on making it a part of the regular classifieds so you can choose to sell your item as an auction or just a regular classified ad. then again, I may separate the whole thing. I'm not sure yet. I have some thinking to do on this one but yes, feel free to use it now.
