That $100 bid in the last 5 seconds of an ebay auction will do a LOT more good than "tipping your hand" with a bid a while BEFORE auction end.
ANYHOW, it works GREAT for me. I bid the absolute most I'm willing to pay in the last 3 or 5 seconds of the auction. If someone who wants it worse than me does the same thing with a bigger bid, so be it.
