It was brought to my attention by a respected board member (at least in his own mind

....just kidding) that the auction did have a blurb about NOT being able to bid on an item if you hadn't bid on it going into extended bidding, when the extended bidding started....and then 20-30 minutes later that message was changed to reflect the correct ending method. Quite honestly I don't think I even saw the first message as I am usually in a different part of the software than where that would show. Once again, our apologies for any issues that may have been caused by this slight mishap. best regards
