Set minimum price, set maximum, price, set number of bids and it bids almost immediately at the current price using up your credits and ignores your start and finish prices! The entire site is designed to get the bidder into a bidding frenzy to use up pre-paid for "bid credits" which go to SWOOPO leaving the bidder with a hefty hole where their money was.
