At midnight Eastern sharp it stopped taking my bids, cannot currently get back into auction. Seems the 10-minute rule is overwhelming the server(s).

I got bids in at 9:02 and 9:04 (EDT). But feared this would happen.

Just got off phone with REA
System is down for everyone even them
They plan on sending email with closing procedures once up

Hope this helps

No idea said they were working on it and to check email

I'm watching a movie so I will be up for a bit since tomorrow is a State holiday...Confederate Memorial Day (Yes Alabama still recognizes this as a holiday...go figure)

I will check email once movie is over

Just got this in an email:

There have been reports of intermittent access issues to the site. We are aware of these issues and are working to resolve them rapidly. The auction will be extended for the amount of down time. Lots will temporarily display as closed. They will be reopened once resolved.

Please stay tuned to your email for updates.

Now I got back on but all the lots (at least the ones I was bidding on) show as closed now. I got sniped on one too right before the outage.

They sent a message saying that bidding would reopen shortly. (Bit that all lots would appear “closed” temporarily.

All the closed notices for the individual lots indicate the auction ended at 12:29 A.M. Perhaps that's when it will re-open for bidding with the 10-minute clock.

There's got to be a better way to close these auctions...basically, the auction doesn't really even start until midnight...and then everyone who's serious about winning is gonna wait until about 3 minutes left in the "10 minute window" to all place bids at the same time. Who couldn't have seen the site crash at 12:07 coming?

Their auctions have always worked this way and I don't remember them having any problems like this before tonight.

REA should just follow the Heritage approach. Divide the auction into 2 or 3 days, which will reduce the number of bidders each day. Start the extended bidding at 11pm EST and use the 30 minute clock instead of 10 minutes. With the 10 minute clock, everyone is rushing to get their bids in, right at midnight EST because they are afraid their time will run out, and then they are constantly refreshing their bids. The 30 minute rule puts less pressure on this.

I hope REA considers moving their auctions to Saturday night. Staying up this late to start the workweek is tough enough as it is before technical problems.

Oh, don't worry. They'll push the closing to tomorrow and squeeze more bids out of everyone.

These outages benefit the AH and consigners.

Can someone post the new bidding instructions here when they come out? I don’t have access to email right now, thank you.

I am back on but all lots are displaying as Sold so I don't think bidding has resumed yet.
