Thank you for your participation!

Brian,

Is REA closing tonight?

spacktrack 04-27-2014 03:20 AM

All done. Thank you to all who bought, sold, and just watched the auction unfold.

Invoices are now finalized and available online in your account. We will not send hard copy invoices so please check your account on our website. Shipping is free (with the exception of international shipments and unusually large or heavy items--charges for those will be invoiced in the coming days as we calculate costs based on location).

We start writing consignment checks Monday, so if you have any special instructions, please let us know immediately.

Thank you again!

Great auction guys!

Woke up to see I had won two lots. A bit shocked as bargains were not a-plenty in this one.

Me too (won two lots), although neither were bargains. That's okay, both are likely "one-of-a-kind" pre-rookie cabinets, so I can't complain!!

Received the dreaded "Outbid Notice" email at 5:05am on the only lot I was going for :( :( :( :(

The D304 Cobb went as nuts as the e90-2 Wags. That Cobb was another card I was rooting for. Congrats to the winners.

Really annoyed, woke up this morning to find out I had been outbid on the only lot I was going for. I'd put in an auto bid that was really quite high, I had been certain it would hold up. Such is REA I guess :)

Outbid on two lots. :(

The sun still came up this morning however.

bwbc917 04-27-2014 08:53 AM

5AM or later
 
Looks like most of us go to bed and get up to see if we won. ( I lost out overnight). I'm wondering who the hardcore folks are that stick it out until the wee hours. OR are there a horde of buyers in Asia/Australia?

lug-nut 04-27-2014 05:37 PM

at least some of you guys got to go to bed winning...i went to bed out bid on all 3 of my items :mad:

the juice and auto-bid increments really took me out of the game

edriskill 04-27-2014 09:53 PM

I feel like I was a winner. Received my catalog Saturday.

If you look at the 'recent bids' list, noting the times of the bids and when the 'fair warning' and 'end is eminent' emails went out, you'll see that a lot of people lost out on some really huge items because of bids that were thrown in after the auction very well could have ended. There really isn't too much rhyme or reason to it.

I showed the above to my girlfriend and her assessment was immediately that a lot of those bidders were drinking.
