Memory Lane Auction - 15 Minute Rule Lasted Forever?

[Archive]

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

Amongst the seemingly 30 odd emails that I get from Memory Lane every day in the days leading up to their auction and during their auction, I couldn't help but take notice the final 2 that I received TODAY, in which it was claimed that the auction that purportedly closed and began the "15 minute rule" last night at 11 pm EST was STILL OPEN TODAY AT ABOUT 4 PM. That's a record, huh? Boy, it's a good thing that auction received bids for 15 hours after the initial bidding closed or it would have been impossible for Memory Lane to get TWO emails to me and everyone else on their mailing list during that period. Is this a record for the longest amount of time for an auction to close?
