[LMB] AKICOT:L - eBay bidding

[Jacki Knight]

I have a question for those of you who are experienced in eBay usage.

Just recently I have been involved in two auctions where I really  
thought I was winning. I kept clicking refresh every few seconds as  
we got down to the final minutes and in both cases a I was outbid  
with less than 10 seconds to go.

Does anyone know how this happens? And is there any way I can  
overcome it?
