Default eBay auctions

How can you make sure that you win an item during like the final seconds of the auction. I was just wondering because I don't want to be 0wn3d.

I usually make the go ahead bid like a minute before the auction ends, then with like 5 or 10 seconds left place my maximum bid so no fucktard outbids me at the last minute.
