Somehow I don’t know many people complaining about how Heritage ends theirs. But perhaps I’m mistaken. And for me if it doesn’t change I’ll have to make a decision whether or not I choose to engage any longer. And I suspect I won’t be the only one.

Sort the auctions results by recent bids, pretty sure I did it correctly.
# of items with bids AFTER 11:58PM - 93 = 3.2% (2907 total lots)
# of items with bids AFTER 11:59PM - 72 = 2.5%

Of those 93 lots, 14 were top 100 items in prices, at $473k. The rest of the 93 were $212k. I'm sure some would get reallocated, but not all as the majority of that money was chasing very specific cards/lots. If you were after an E107 Lajoie, you weren't about to just pivot into eight T206 Ty Cobbs. Maybe another 5% of the auction would have been exposed to reallocation of funds? It's doubtful it's even that high, meaning well more than 90% of this auction was DONE well before "snipe" time.

There is no best way to end, otherwise everyone would do it like that and it would just be called "the way". "This way" works just fine.
