I love auctions, and go to as many as possible.
That auctioneeer is there to bring top dollar to the client, and try to keep peace with the crowd.
And you as a human want the best deal for you no doubt. So my reasoning would go along the lines of the two different bids / combined bids was ---X---amount. If you were selling the units, would you toss that amount in the air to make one bidder happy?
If the auctioneer was not up front, that is a different issue, otherwise high bidder wins at a auction. I understand its kinda like as a child I got the stick of gum, but the bigger kid took it away from me.
The combined bidding can be a different thought process. Why bid, or raise the bid till everything is combined, then get after it.
I think with the spreader deal, the auctioneer sold it backwards, but that is just my opinion. If you buy a package deal, then you should always keep track of the bidders of the seperate unit or attachments if you are not interested in a selected one attachment incase you win the over all bid.
This practice is done at most sales in our area, and everyone understands the value in it.
I hope I was not offensive in my statments, I'm not good at stating my opinion in nice words sometimes.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
