The answer will, seemingly, have to be in the way the auction closing is phrased. Maybe it will be wise for future auctions to say something like "All bids must be placed in this thread before 10pm CST" (or whatever you want but you get the idea). That way we know that if the bid is at 10xx then it is too late. Just a thought....I agree that this will be an issue sooner than later if it's not addressed. I (and I am sure the other mods) really don't want to get involved in making any rules or being the deciding factor on a sale....
