Judicious use of the auto-bidder can work to your advantage. It is a great tool that I use to great effect.
At the start of an auction, you can use it to intimidate hesitant and opportunistic bidders. But you must set a limit that is reasonable, the average price on previous auctions works fine. But experience is needed to gauge this.
Later in an auction you have to be more active and carefully watch how the bidding is progressing. You can still use the auto-bidder, but beware there are more people trying to snatch a win from you like vultures at a lion's kill. And often they will wear you down and succeed.
