That's the kind of ebay deal where you get on the site and, depending upon how fast your connection is, at the 10 - 7 seconds left mark, put in a bid that is 2-3 times what you think any sane person would pay for the item and hope you're right and take whatever you get. I've gotten a LOT of stuff on ebay using that method. Never bid on something that you just have to have until there's just seconds left when there isn't time for anyone to top you.... and they will try. The less time you give them, the less chance they have of catching up. Electrons are only so fast.
