This is the amount by which the auctioneer increases the bidding. The increment may be rounded up or down at the auctioneer's discretion. Typically we use bid increments of $5.00 for items under $100.00 and $10.00 for items from $100 to $500. For example, if the bidding starts at $50.00, the next increment will be $55.00. Once the bid reaches $100.00, the next increment will be $110.00. As the bid price gets higher, the increments may get bigger.
