Yes, eBay bidding in the final moments is pretty much the norm for desirable
items.  It's sometimes called sniping.

Yes I missed it, Chris Brogden advised a $30-$40 value.  I bid $35 and it
went in the last few minutes for $39. Is this common on Ebay - there seemed
to be a flurry of bids in the dying seconds.  Do people sit and watch these
items until the last minute - is there an art to bidding?

BTW thanks to everyone who responded on the K to screw issue.  ( in
particular Paul Prov, Bill Cass, D.Genn Arthur Jr & Chris Brogden) Really
helped me.

TTFN
