You should always stay awake in the last 3 minutes or so of the auction to avoid this.
rule #1 of eBay: there is ALWAYS some cunt waiting to snipe you at the last second

Someone was willing to pay more than you.
As a rule I always bid a little more than I want to pay, because losing by one dollar sucks, but winning by just a couple extra bucks isnt that bad. Of course this doesn't apply to all items, some things come up so often that it's worth chancing it with a low bid.

fucking this
i set alarms for the auction time so i can be there real-time and i dont put in a final bid until the last ten seconds
>>5554561

whats the difference? lets say it was a figma or something.
>>5554561
Am I the only one who doesn't bid until the last 5-10 seconds? As a buyer wouldn't you want to wait as long as possible to keep the price down?
>>5554761
I do the same.
>>5554561
