Yes, go back and rebid a little higher, that way you leave some room for those
guys that like bid a penny or a quarter at the last second. You do risk paying a
higher price, but if the part is really needed, it may be worth the slightly
extra expense. There are folks on ebay that only bid on auctions that have
almost ended, they go down through the list and add penny bids here and there.
Your only defense is to have a little extra down on what you want, and to
monitor things right at the closing. It's a bit of a pain, but it all depends on
just how much you want whatever you are bidding on.
