I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. I'm pretty sure that IF your bid gets entered at all then the eBay software WILL run it up to the max if needed. The auction-end time is simply a cutoff for bids to be entered. Once your bid has been entered it will be incremented as necessary until it reaches your max bid. That's my understanding. (even if it did work as you might be thinking, seconds is an eternity for the eBay server).
