Yes these were isolated to me, but possibly happened to many others.

But my point was the fact that in one instance the shortened closing netted the seller and house more money and in the all niter it cost them money. That makes it fairly easy for me to see which one I would prefer as a consignor. We all know the frenzied last minutes on Ebay create higher prices than might normally occur. I would think one would also want this hurried atmosphere in a major auction, not the marathon last one to finish steals the lot.

Again many ideas on this, each persons from their vested interest standpoint.
