There is no perfect solution for ending an auction. All of them have pluses and minuses.

I know yours does and Sterling does. Outside of Ebay, until now, those are the only two places I have bid. So when I saw this rule today when I was trying to figure out my bidding strategy I was saddened to see that I may lose out on something if somebody decides to be rude and outbid me into extended bidding. If I win my current lot I will be happy even having not bid on the other item, but if I end up not winning either and item two sells for less than I was willing to bid then I will be sad.
