Also, there's the thing with last second bidders, they wait till the very last second to place their bid, thus leaving others without the possibility of bidding higher. You can try that yourself as well, just wait till the bidding is almost over, see what the highest bid is and decide if you want to go any higher. Or, alternatively, you can put in a maximum bid and then autobid. Whenever a bid is placed, you will automatically raise your bid. Until someone decides to bid more than your maximum bid (wich they cannot see beforehand) then you are out of the game.
Example: if you start an automatic bid to a maximum of 200, and the lowest possible bid is 130, then 130 will be your bid. If someone comes along and bids 140, your bid will be automatically raised to 150. Maybe this person tries again and bids 160. Your new bid will then be 170. If nobody bids more than 170 you win the auction with a bid of 170, and you won't have to pay your set maximum of 200. Try not to accidentally place a 'normal' bid of 200, if that wins the auction, that's the money you will have to pay regardless of other bids.
