High bids push the price up.
If I'm keen on an item then I snipe manually within the last 10 seconds.
Say an item is up to £75.00, the guy thinks it's his, (might have a hidden max, who knows).
I think the item is worth £120.00 max so snipe this in at the end.
It might go for £80.00 it might go for more.
The point is, the more bids you put in, especially your highest earlier on will raise the price of the item.

Totally agree.You should NEVER bid on an item till the last minute. No point in bidding 2 days, 2 hours or 2 minutes before an item ends as you reveal your interest and give folk an opportunity to think about their next move.
