I rarely stay up past 10 for any reason, so I have very little experience with extended bidding. Got a little thrill when I realized ML was in extended and I was still up. Found it frustrating though that (at least on my phone) the system didn't update the 15-minute clock. Made it constantly look like the auction might end which was too nerve wracking for me. After about 30 minutes of that, I put in a final bid on the only item I was urgently concerned about and went back to watching football. Fortunately, my bid lasted.
With respect to prices, my data says prices were firm and a little bouncy after the steady decline of late. Almost nothing I track (pre-war or vintage) was down with most everything flat or up. Not racing back toward the highs but certainly not declining further.
