Yep....the 9PM deadline was just for "preliminary bidding". You needed to have a bid placed before that time to bid on the lot in "extended bidding" which is going on now. Extended bidding won't end until there aren't ANY bids placed on ANY lot in the auction for a full 15 minutes.
So yeah, this auction will run late. There are other auction houses that work it so that items will close individually if there haven't been bids on that specific item for 15 or 30 minutes, but Goodwin's format is a tad bit different...
