  What caused my bid to get rejected?
Mainly two reasons are responsible when a confirmed bid gets invalid:

-In case you enter an invalid amount in the "Bid Amount" section. Kindly check whether the bid amount carries only numbers. Avoid entering any signs like dollar signs ($) or commas (,) etc. into the bid amount field.

- The amount of your bid is lower than the "Next Bid" value. Check that your bid is equal to or greater than the current "Next Bid" value shown on the listing page. There are times when you will see the next bid at lower price than the actual rate. Like:

Jane enters her maximum bid of $10 for a No Reserve item without bids. If the bid stands at $1, because Jane's bid is automatically reduced to the minimum possible bid, the starting price of $1. The minimum increment is $1 that any other bidders will have to enter a minimum of $2.

Bill enters the bidding of a bid $5. His bid is accepted, till it is lowers Jane's bid of $10. Because at present Jane’s bid is the maximum bid, a bid is inevitably entered from her side at $6 - that is Bill's bid of $5 plus the increment of $1.

Deciding he really wants this item, Bill decides he is willing to bid up to $25, so he enters this bid, and is pleased to see he is now the leading bidding. If no one else bids more than $25, Bill will be the proud new owner of this item.
