Ebay anti-sniping program?

I have seen the final bid double and triple in the last minute of an auction. I do a lot on Ebay and welcome last minute bids.

"It's Not Easy Bein' Green" (lyrics by Joe Rapposo)

It's not that easy bein' green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves.
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold-
or something much more colorful like that.

It's not easy bein' green.
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things.
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water- or stars in the sky.

But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree.

When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why? Wonder,
I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.

As sung by Kermit The Frog

Evidently, it's not easy posting green pictures either.
Thanks James

More than likely, there were several people waiting until the last possible second to bid on that auction, just as you were. All of you probably had "high speed" internet. Ebay is habitually slow, and their system is frequently overburdoned, especially at peak times (0900, 1630, 1830 etc), so the long and short is that is was probably a case of too many people attempting to bid at the last second, IMO,
