There seems to be someone bidding against themselves, sshenkelman20. The last 3 bids were all from this person with bids of $62, $100 and $115.

I noticed that, too--a touch odd, I must say. I will say, that I had placed a bit without using Skymilesshopping and went back, logged in for the link and bid a dollar more right away. I could get the credit for the extra miles by doing so. But those bids are a little mysterious!
Maybe the auction fever spiked?? To each their own method...

Maybe they keep increasing their maximum bid and their bid is posted whenever they're in the lead and the other bids aren't posted.

I don't think the rules for Mystery Auctions permit proxy bidding. So, they are apparently entering each of their bids individually.....not the first time this has happened.
Please note: Promotional codes may not be used when purchasing a Mystery Auction package. Automatic bidding does not apply - if you receive an outbid notice, you must manually update your bid.

CLUES:

Motto: "For the Benefit of the World"

and...

In the movie The Tailor of Panama the character played by Pierce Brosnan stays in this location, and is seen eating at a restaurant here. In the background of the opening shot of this sequence, you can see the iron and wood bridge that leads to this city.

Panama has this motto: Panama: Pro mundi beneficio (Latin, For the benefit of the world) See the link: https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ational_mottos
In the movie The Tailor of Panama the character played by Pierce Brosnan stays at the Gamboa Rainforest Resort, and has a meal at a waterside restaurant in Gamboa.

[LL_Travelfan]

I believe we are talking about the
Gamboa Rainforest Resort in Gamboa, Panama

I believe he also stayed at "El Panama Hotel" in the city. I have never seen that offered as an LL offering though so I have to agree with LL Travelfan's guess.....
