I'm bowing out at $3750 on this one (thought $2500 would take it)

Wow, Andrew, beautiful card, sorry you didn't get it. According to the latest message, 18 minutes to go in REA

itchy fingers, maybe just one more bid. :--)

Don't think the card would command this much if it appeared again.

"We don't anticipate the auction extending beyond 2am EST."
GRRRRRR. Now 2:03, going to bed, hoping to wake up and find the set is mine.

Notice the change of description now...hmmmm....



"We do not anticipate the auction to remain open past 3:00 A.M. EST (technically the morning of April 29, 2007)."

It said 2:00am earlier.....

I can't for the life of me figure out why not only does each lot not close individually, but you can't even see any time clock at all. Makes no sense.

I got outbid on the t207 Lowdermilk 9.5 hours after extended bidding kicked in. These things always drag on forever... I wish there was some practice that was better than the others, but it's not obvious. Maybe the best one is the 15-minutes-per-lot, rather than waiting for the whole thing to close at once. I can vouch that it's a lot easier being on the West Coast, for what that's worth.

If anybody is still awake or paying attention, the lots now have a closing time of 3:15 A.M. est.

When they find that guy Bill they should hang him by his feet and let you beat him with a stick! Seriuosly what kind of a guy would do that???

All joking aside sorry Bill, if it makes you feel any better I got stomped on all my other lots.

Yeah, this is an insane way to end an auction. I know bids were still coming in...but still. It's just unfair to the East Coast guys, painfully long, and ends in a subjective way. The fact is, you can keep an auction open for a month and bids will still come in.

Picked up the 1898 Cameo Pepsin Gum Pin Hugh Jennings, his earliest collectible aside from the unique 1894 Alpha Photo Engraving card which I can never afford.

The Cabal went 1 for 2, losing the e97s but winning the lot of 25 E94s.

I can't imagine a much worse way to end an auction. Started to have hopes that I might win my lot after 7 hours of inactivity but those hopes were dashed this morning. Discouraging and another catalog off to auction wasteland.

Changing the anticipated end time is not cool.

Frank,

Agreed it’s one thing to take it down to the wire, it’s another thing to change terms and conditions in mid-auction.

I’m in 100% agreement with Jeff, I still don’t understand why there is no 15 min rule per item.
