Yeah. It's called "sniping." A somewhat controversial method but I do
it and have won every auction I bid on.

"A Java-based application allowing you to monitor auctions you're not part
of, submit bids, snipe (bid at the last moment), and otherwise track your
auction-site experience. It includes adult-auction management, MANY
currencies (yen, pound, dollar (US, Canada, Australian, and New
Taiwanese), Swiss Francs, and euro, presently), drag-and-drop of auction
URLs, a unique and powerful 'multisniping' feature, a relatively nice UI,
and is known to work cleanly under Linux, Windows, Solaris, and MacOSX
from the same binary." -jbidwatcher homepage

Basically, this software will take care of the "snipping" for you...plus
give you a bunch of great information if you ebay much. I have barely
used this software before, but it seemed to work great for me. Enjoy!
