My preference for all of these auctions would be a closing time of 8pm eastern, with 1 hour of overtime (where you can only bid on lots you had bid on prior to 8pm eastern) and then lots close one by one when no bids are made after 15 minutes after overtime. Most of these auctions are open for bids for 14+ days prior to closing, you have plenty of time to get your bids in. I understand that bids can be connected and people have finite budgets, but thats what collecting is all about, picking your spots and time/place.

Anyway, I won 2 items last night, the T205 lot of 44 with a Mathewson (which was right at the top of where I priced it) and this beauty.



Piedmont 42s are tough, and this one is no exception. Got it right at the top of my price limit. Very happy to add this one.
