I put all of my "wants" in the "watch" file and save any bidding for the last 3-5 minutes, if there is to be any bidding wars it starts before then and i don't bother. I have had a problem trying to get my bbc p/s pump that one vendor always lists and another "shop" (same one all the time) outbids. Hard to tell if they are scamming together because some guys sell just the brackets. I moved on but still looking.
