They are no longer a good place to sell things. No one actually enters a maximum bid amount anymore - they just enter the minimum amount to make them the current high bidder. There are scads of computer programs that will wait until literally the last few seconds of an auction to place a bid, thus not giving other bidders a chance to raise their bids and therefore depriving the seller of a higher selling price. I work with a guy who is from Japan and returns there frequently. He says eBay in Japan works differently. If a bid is placed in the last minutes of an auction, the auction is automatically extended by 5 minutes to give other bidders a chance. eBay in the US needs to start doing that.
