Shootie, Well, with the 15 minutes or even 5 minutes at the end before bids are final ebay would get new life and the snipers would get no more easy meat. In fact there would be no point in sniping since the clock would start again at 5 minutes if you put a bid in at one second.
I think it would be a strong positive move for Ebay to do it.
They could let the sellers decide what kind of auction. yahoo does that.
