closing all lots at an announced time is ridiculous as everyone would wait to snipe like ebay
closing all lots when you feel like it like lelands does is ludricous as the door for dishonesty is wide open..thats not saying theyre dishonest just saying the door is WIDE open
you can close an auction at midnite with a 1/2 hr no bid per lot rule and every single person in the country has the ability to bid on that lot and can watch the clock countdown on their lot and jump in again if they chose...no max bids allowed eliminates shilling as the auction house wont know how hi youre willing to go,,if a shill outbids you theyre taking a chance that youll bid again when u may not
