Lol
Obviously, that doesn't happen in a live auction because there's just one lot at a time being bid on. In an online auction where there are sometimes several thousand lots all with bidding available, someone may be trying to monitor 50-100 lots (or more) that they're interested in so some amount of time is needed to make that possible. 30 minutes may seem too long, but it all depends on how many lots someone is interested in.
