Check out JBidWatcher, a free (libre), cross-platform, auction utility. Here
is a description from the project's website [http://www.jbidwatcher.com/]:
"A Java-based application allowing you to monitor auctions you're not part
of, submit bids, snipe (bid at the last moment), and otherwise track your
auction-site experience. It includes adult-auction management, MANY
currencies (pound, dollar (US, Canada, Australian, and New Taiwanese) and
euro, presently), drag-and-drop of auction URLs, an original, unique and
powerful 'multisniping' feature, a relatively nice UI, and is known to work
cleanly under Linux, Windows, Solaris, and MacOSX from the same binary."
