I'm pretty sure my $31 bid wins, because I got it in first.

32

instant replay will determine the winner! I missed out!

Well, looking at the time of each post, I'm pretty sure I won....
Don't feel bad, though. I missed a Ripken rookie for $30 below market the other day by a few minutes.

It's all yours Brendan...

I agree you had the first $31 bid, but ctank80 had a $32 bid at 9:00.

I'm not sure which way is the right way... His bid is listed as 9:00, but does it technically end at 8:59:59?

I want to do the right thing by both of you. Do either of you have input on this?

I don't mean to be pushy, but when an item ends at pretty much any auction (eBay, auction house, etc.) at a specific time it means you have to get in your bid before that time. When you say 9 PM, I assume that means 9:00 exactly, not 9:00:59. Technically speaking, for his bid to count, the auction must end at 9:00:59. Unless he got in his bid at 9:00:00 exactly (where he could then make the case that you can make a bid on an auction with exactly 0 seconds left - not that I've ever seen that happen before) I'm not sure if there even is an argument at all. Most likely, he bid when the clock was at -0:30 or something along those lines.

Again, I don't mean to be a prick about it, but this is the way I see 99% of auctions orchestrated. But heck, some people may have different opinions on what 9:00 PM really means. However, once you start bending its definition, where do you draw the line? Seems like a slippery slope to me.

i don't mean to be an ahole and obviously Brendan really wants the cards but unless your clock captures the seconds how can anyone prove my bid was made after 10:00 exactly?

I would suggest it would have to be after because yours is the 2nd post listed at 10:00 eastern. He had a post at 10:00 eastern stating, "I'm pretty sure..."
