ABSTRACT:
Potential bidding errors may be detected using a computer-implemented method comprising receiving a proposed bid for an auction item, the auction item having a current bid and a minimum bid increment, the proposed bid being greater than the sum of the current bid and the minimum bid increment. The method then determines a threshold value, the threshold value being greater than the sum of the current bid and a minimum bid increment. When the proposed bid is greater than the threshold value, then the method validates the proposed bid using the current bid and the proposed bid to provide a validation result. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
