Maybe...
So you go in and put in your max bid 5 minutes before the end of the
auction,
it's it basically the same?
I'm not trying to be argumentative, I just don't understand how it'd
really work
any better. Is the idea that you're doing it so close to the end that
nobody else
has a chance to outbid you? If so, what about the person that DID enter a
larger
"max bid" and the Ebay system automatically outbids you?
