Eric BI'd be interested to know how this ended up. While everyone says they get a lot more when the auctions run to the end, I've heard many times that's not the case.
The only time I requested one to end early (mostly as a pre-emptive move to let the seller know I was interested so he wouldn't end it early for someone else), my fair but still below-market offer was actually higher than I ended up getting it for.
