As far as I am concerned bidders should bid to buy.....not view. They can view or cause an inspection before auction ends.
As for ebayers trying their luck on auctions. As a seller I would politelty make it clear.........bidding is to buy, reserve is not negotiable & auction will not end early in abscence of an accepted B.I.N. price or higher figure being secured.
Only if vehicle was grossly misdescribed with a significant affect on value would I re-negotiate or walk away as a buyer, (assuming no deposit issues).......Otherwise I would expect to receive a strike.
As for the car running in the ebay auction here.....I would expect it to receive some private & trade interest (being a historied, warrantied tidy 2 owner car with remaining AUC warranty & mileage under 100k).
