|  BST - Auctions 
			
			The auction portion of the BST is really a nice feature.  There are always neat things in this section.  If it was standardized (just a bit) it could probably make for a better experience for everyone.  Items get lost in the threads as time goes by.  Knowing when the auction ends (from the subject/topic line) will let everyone know what's avaialable, even if it falls down the list of items up for auction.   Just a suggestion. In the subject line put the end date so that people will know when the auction ends. Can we just put up a standard closing time of like 10P (EST) so that everyone knows that all auctions end at 10P (EST). I think it will make things mucy easier for people looking over what's up for grabs. For example: SUN - 30OCT: T206 Wagner (add details, etc)

			Wow I logged on 55 minutes too late   Seriously though, this is a good idea. Makes it easier to navigate and keep track of the different auctions that are ending. |

|  Ending time 
			
			Hi, I have run a few auctions on the BST with varying degrees of success.  I like the idea of a standardized ending time.  10:00 Eastern would work.   It could be taken a step farther so all auctions end on either Wednesday or Sunday, or any other combination of days. Rick

			Having them all end at the same time might get a little messy, no? Maybe have a rule where only 5 or so auctions can close at the same time? Love the subject line idea, btw!
