I quite often find my self being the one setting the final price - and the item being sold for just a little above my final bid. That is when I choose to back off, rather than go into a hysterical bidding competition. Sniping is much better. When I really want the item, I often get it. Bidding double within the last 20 seconds usually does it. If more bidders do just that simultaneously, the auction goes nuts
