Well ebay is going to make everyone snipers . They now have a beta program called countdown that allows you to watch the countdown to the end without refreshing anymore.

Myself ,I simply research the item, see what the going rate is, figure out what the max I'm willing to pay is and wait till the end . If the price is over what my max is, I dont bid . If it is under my max, I stick a bid in with a few seconds to go and hope for the best. Sometimes I get a bid in with 3 seconds left and find that 5 other people got bids in too !!!!! And I have missed too when my computer took an extra few seconds to load the page !!! DOH !!!
I've also seen 2 morons bid something way up on the first day bidding against each other to be highest and niether winning at the end .
