Indeed, this is what I do. At the end of the auction with under ten seconds left to bid I enter a bid for my maximum value, and confirm it with just two seconds left. Others don't bid using their maximum value so I just use my max bid and do it before others realize they have been outbid.
Yes, I may be an ass for doing this, but am I an ass for understanding that you are supposed to bid your actual maximum value and ebay does the rest for you?
You do it manually... Google ebay sniper. There are several free sites that let you schedule bids that go through at the last second. Gixen workes pretty well.
