We feel that 2 mins should be enough to prevent this happening...

Give a man a fish, and you have fed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and he will continue fishing even if you give him a fish.

Edit: Also, the auction site does not adjust for daylight saving time. You can either choose the time zone +1 from yours or manually add an hour to any time you see.
Just to double check,
Does this mean that when the site says 2 days 7hrs remaining that it is actually 1 hr off?

The site's countdowns are accurate but any specific times (23:00 for example) are off by 1 hour.

At this time, 18:45 GMT, the auction says 5:15 hours left. That means it's finished at 24:00 GMT, not 23:00, I think.

GMT is not BST...

When you posted thinking it was 6.45pm GMT, it was actually 5.45pm GMT and 6.45pm BST. The times Kip posted are correct
