WARNING: YOU ARE THE CONSIGNOR FOR THIS LOT
You cannot place or alter your reserves by bidding in this fashion. All reserves should be placed by emailing or calling_________________(1-800-872-6467x1975).

So it seems to be false that consignor's can bid on their own lots, the rules say the AH may bid on lots, of which that intent I believe is their raising lots to the scheduled reserves that were preset by the AH/consignor prior to the auction starting.
The consignor can't bid on their own lots. Heritage can consign their own lots and bid on their own lots however.
