Isn't there supposed to be a clock on REA showing if there has been a bid in the last 15 minutes? |

Yes, check the clock on your wall. If it is still running so is the auction. |

As to the lack of an REA clock, we should probably blame PSA. |

Adam, I have a set of diagrams which actually demonstrate that it's both PSA and Mastro's fault for the lack of a clock in REA. I would post my work but I don't have a scanner here. |

Ever had impending buyer's remorse for an auction that was still going? I have, and fortunately, I just got the long awaited "outbid" e-mail! Relief! |

James, man, I am right there with you! (or, where you were!) I meant to buy ONE of the cards I'm winning on, but I'm winning them all. Awaiting that life-saving outbid e-mail... |

Is the thought that the items that haven't received bids since 4pm "may" end at 11pm est? God i'm getting tired already, need to go put on coffee. |

Actually, upon closer inspection they have a "clock" but it actually isn't reflective of anything and is therefore worthless. Each auction page has a line: |

Are you currently high bidder on the lots you are hoping to win or are you waiting it out longer? On one of my lots, I'm waiting for another bid to come in so I get the bidding slot I want. |

I'm not sure I understand, either, Matt. In case of a tie, the person with the autobid wins, so there would seem to be no reason not to place an autobid. |

Dave - on the autobid, you can only bid every other slot. If the lot is currently at $2000 and I want to bid $2500, autobid won't help since with it, I can only set it to $2750, which would put me in the lead at $2250 and then leave the $2500 slot for someone else. |

Well, whether its coffee or alcohol the Old Judge Ward is definately a sought after card. Don't know what else has moved lately but must be something being bid on. |

Maybe we can make our own auction clock. If any of us bid or get outbid, post it here so that we know the auction will go for at least 15 minutes after that. There is no need to post which lot since any lot extends it another 15 minutes. |

I cannot believe the one lot I'm butting heads with someone else on. It's approaching 3x what I thought it would sell for and was the one thing I had pegged as not causing me any angst. Shows what I know. |

I just got the best email from Doug Allen/Mastro making fun of REA for its "discretionay ending" and "offering bidders" yet another hour of sleep by claiming that the 30 min rule will start at 11 pm EST. I have to say, I find it hilarious and don't blame them a bit for twisting the knife. Say what you want about Mastro (and I do) but their ending is like heaven compared to this. |
