I will add to this when I have a moment.

Pete, I am pretty sure that REA and memory lane use the same software, which I think precludes the AH from seeing a max bid. I also think both AHs forbid employees from bidding in their auctions; however, I think employees can consign.
Categories should be (1) can employees consign, (2) can employees bid, (3) can employees see max bids, (4) are reserves disclosed, and if so, at what point in the auction is it disclosed there is a reserve and at what point do we know what the reserve amount is.
