Sniping is impossible on ebay. If you'd bid $40 a week ago, ebay would've auto-raised that $38 bid and it'd be yours (unless that last-minute bid was higher than yours, obviously. There's no way of knowing what the high bid ACTUALLY was).

The only thing last-minute bidding on ebay accomplishes is to prevent dummies who repeatedly raise their bid by small increments from driving up the price that the winner has to pay.
