Last-second bids. For how much longer? | Buy on eBay

I'm sure this has happened to all of us on many occasions. We bid on an item and a couple of seconds before it ends someone shows up who outbids us without letting us increase our bid, losing the chance to buy the product by paying a bit more. This practice, which I dislike so much, has no place in any auction that claims to be serious. How do they solve it on other online platforms or at live auctions? Simply, they extend it by one or two more minutes if someone tries to use the aforementioned trickery. In this way, it stops being worthwhile for that kind of person to waste time systematically and bid in advance. How much longer will eBay keep allowing this kind of pirate behavior? Adopting the measures mentioned does not harm the seller, the buyer, or the platform. Please change the last-second bidding methodology.
