I'm not the expert by any means, but here are some of my ebay observances.
There are snipe programs(that bid in the last possible seconds) and all that stuff, but it really boils down to just one thing. Whoever bids the highest wins. You can wait until the last second and try to steal it, but there is usually a flury of bids in the waning seconds of a remarkable buy. There could be 10 guys thinking just like you are about how to win this auction.
You could try unethical means like emailing the seller and cutting a deal. There's huge risk there on many different fronts.
If you googled "how to win an ebay auction" you may get suggestions, but again it all boils down to who wants to pay more than the rest.
In the long run, you're most often better off simply bidding the highest amount you're willing to spend for the item. If you try to spend the least amount to win, most often it will sell for amount you would have beat if given the chance.
