There's a simple cure that eBay could implement.
If a bid occurs in the final 5mins of a auction, then extend the action
endtime by 5mins.
This continues ad-naseum until bidding stops.

Why they don't do this, I'm not sure.....

I just find it a very convenient way to off-load stuff gathering dust
around
my home.
It's money for out-of-use stuff.
