You are not really announcing it, due to the second price nature of the eBay "bidding agent", but tough luck when two high price bidders happen to bid on the same copy. With multiple auctions, bidding becomes surprisingly tactical.

So you are kind of announcing it. And on similar items, they can work one up to your limit, determine the limit, then return to best it on all the other items at the last minute.
