eBay needs to be investigated in it's procedures.

I was in the lead to purchase a vehicle, it said I was highest bidder, I won at end of sale timer, but 1 minute (60 seconds) after end of sale, a bid was put in by someone else and they won,  WHY.

eBay wanted more of a percentage is all I can think, shame on you.

I will notify trading standards and the ombudsman.

It's impossible for a bid to be placed after the end time unless your device clock is incorrect.

Can you post a screenshot of the bidding page or the item number so we can take a look?

This is usually caused by server lag, or by members not looking at the timing including seconds.

No good complaining without showing evidence.  Provide item number or bid history showing a bid after end of auction.

How do you think ebay would know a last minute bid was going to be placed?
