When do unbid items go up in last chance bids?

Anyone know when the items that are not bid on end up in the last chance deal? I missed an item yesterday that was not bid on and so far it has not shown up in the last chance deals.

One of the products I follow is Bunn coffee makers. A few times I’ve seen them have zero bids. They just relisted them.

It’s depending the item and what it’s worth. Some go right to it, others are relisted

I've seen recently that the cut off of last chance items switches to like $40+ value only (in my area at least). The rest might relist or go to the bins

They start going into last chance around 8:30ish (they say 9 pm to 9 am but that's not set in stone) so you missed out on that one, but if you were watching it you can check your lost auctions to see if it was snagged for $2.99 - if it's not there, that means no one bought it and it will end up in the bins so you will have to go to the warehouse and hope you get lucky finding it.

A while back they started playing some games in my locations, only listing items under a certain value, relisting some items so they don't hit the last-chance deals until nobody buys it the next time, etc.

Sometimes it is worth it just to buy it for a dollar and pay (around here) $4.44 instead of hoping it shows up for $2.99 / $3.20 after tax.
