If you wanted it you should have stayed up. Many auction houses end at very late (or early morning) times. It's been going on for years. If there is something I can't live without then I stay up and bid or put in my max and hope it doesn't get run up. Sour grapes don't taste good. regards

ps...btw, some auction s/w won't allow auctions to close individually, and I am not sure that is best for consignors anyway....As a consignor I want the auction to stay open so people can continue to bid on my stuff.....it is debatable though.
