Way back in the day befor PayPal when eBay implamented the auto bid feature and it was when other biders could read the users full name of person bidding against them for an item. For instance, say I wanted e-code head lights for the spg and found a set on eBay, with the auction already started and lets say the current bid was at 25$ with 3days left on the auction. I would go in and hit the item with 250$ but the auction would show vvack0matic is highest bid at 26 bucks. This is when auto just started, another buyer would see I'm highest bid and they would bid 27$ and immediately my name would over bid them with 28$ which made the other buyer think I was online and we are physically bidding against each other.
The other buyer would be upping the item in dollar intervals for 3 days thinking I'm right there with them bidding. :)) Oh man' it was a blast. if I won the item for 250 or under I'm good with it or if the other buyer got it for 251$ or more alls good. Becouse the hole auction for the e-codes at the time was vvack and it was 0 so matic. :•) E-bay was fun bidding now a buyer can't see the other bidders full name and everyone knows about the auto bid feature.
Oh and at the end of the auction one could go back in and see the amounts that were bid by each user and at what times. Now they ended all that goodness
Would of liked to say it was a grand idea for a Saab name with some crazy meaning but its not.
