I don't recall seeing that in the auction rules any where. It may also promote people that think that the initial bid is close to what the market price is, and people rushing to call you to make the initial bid that "purchases" the item.

If I were a seller, I am not sure that I would like that. In general the opening bids are lower than they should be to ensure the items sell, but the side affect is that there is almost always competition to help push the price up.

The prices last night were very weak in my opinion but it is in no way the result of changing the format. The market is saturated and there are some big players that have dropped out. This trend of lower prices will continue on certain cards.

Some people may have gotten caught with their pants down, but I am sure today they will know what happened and why, and on the next auction it will not again. Either way, if you ask me, they have no reason to complain. The people who stay informed don't have issues, and the people that feel they are entitled do. It is up to the person to determine which they are and how important it is to them.
