not that I know of.
skyauction got better - you use to have to know where to place your bid - so it would work to your benefit.
Bid on this item
Bid Amount: $
Quantity Desired:
Yes, I will accept lesser quantity
Set Max Bid Amount with Autobid: $
Place my bid:
use the autobid - and set the max at what you will pay.
get register - then wait until the last few minutes to place the bid.
now sometimes others will get back even then - but most of the time you will be fine - wait to place the bid until the last minute.
if someone else is using autobid and they have put more than you in autobid - then they will get it.
