I did Bid, as I have in the past, but do not like how they changed the process. It used to be you made your best offer and waited to see if you got it. Now you make what you feel is a "Just" bid and they come back with the "E-Bay" -you were outbid and bid more, and bid more and bid more. At least on E-bay you know what the higher Bid is and can decide how much more you need to bid to win it.
In the NCL bidding system, you have no idea who your bidding against, if you were really outbid or not, and by how much. To me, it's not a game I want to or should need to play. When I make what I feel is a fair bid, my time to too valuable to sit in front of my computer and keep upping my bid over and over again, because NCL said I was outbid. I always understood the bidding to be like a silent auction where you make what you felt was a fair/just bid and the highest bidder would win. It seems that NCL changed the rules of their auction, which they have the right to do, and I was not aware of it until now and was only asking about it. That's why it matters.
