About a week ago I put a bid on a Micro PDP-11/23 on
ebay. I was top
bidder until the end. Of course the end was when I was asleep (3 AM)
The bidding doesn't start until the end on most items. I prefer not to bid
at all until the end so I don't "show my hand" on higher priced items.
Either bid at the end, and I mean well within the last minute if not the
last 10 seconds or so, or bid the full amount you are willing to pay for
the item.
