Has anyone ever simply e-mailed the seller to alert them that they would probably have "several" offers to end the auction early and if they did they would most likely leave money on the table?

If you don't try to prevent it, and it's permitted by the system - not much to complain about other than the fact that you don't like it.

I don't like it either but it is one of the factors that you have to account for and deal with. The system as currently constituted permits it and obviously tacitly encourages it.
