thanks all for such prompt replies! I'm going with Martijn's solution, I'm a
total newbie and it appears simplest (though I realise it's pgsql only)

If you don't mind using a (quite useful) postgres extension, this might
work for you:
select distinct on (auctions.id, users.id) *
from auctions, bids, users
where
order by auctions.id, users.id, created_at desc;
Hope this helps,

Without trying it out, how about something like:
select username, maxbid
from users u, (
select user_id, max(amount) as maxbid
from bids
group by user_id
where auction_id = XXX
) as b
where u.id = b.user_id;
