I think you lost out here because of a common misunderstanding about eBay. There is absolutely no reason to wait until the last minute to bid on an eBay auction. Next time you see something you want, place a bid right away. Place your bid for the maximum amount you want to pay, but you won't pay that much unless other bidders jump in and push the price up. This is the beauty of the eBay proxy bidding system. Try it -- you'll like it!
