Drive it up? Exactly! Every time you bid they'll take it back, "get away from MY stuff" mentality. The only time to "attend" an online auction is at the close, because the only thing that matters is who's ahead at the closing bell, so why set there driving it up. Wait, and watch, then bid before the close if it hasn't already passed your max.
PS looks like the university has all new computers, these are not scrap, they've merely been replaced with new ones. 99% of them probably work "right out of the box/pallet". The most likely thing that might be missing would be a good portion of the RAM, which could possibly go to upgrade any of the older ones which didn't get replaced (aside from the hard drives, already noted as having been removed)
I wouldn't be surprised to see that reach closer to 15K, maybe even nearer 20
