Robert Edward Auctions!

[scooter729]

Last year actually ended around 4:45 AM. I remember waking up early, seeing it was still open, trying to place a bid and missed my chance by a few seconds.

Thanks Scott, was that eastern time?

Just to clarify the ending process for those wondering:

9 PM EST is the deadline for initial bids to be placed. You must have an initial bid placed on any item you wish to pursue during extended bidding.

At 9 PM EST, extended bidding begins and the ENTIRE auction will stay open until no bids have been received on any item for a period of 15 minutes.

We encourage everyone to use the Recent Bids feature tonight to get an idea of the action as the night progresses.

As many can attest, it's a great way to see what's getting bid on and to gauge the activity level. If bids are coming in at 100 per 5 minutes, then the auction is clearly still in full swing. If they start slowing down to 5 minutes between bids, then the auction is clearly slowing down and could close soon.

After 12 AM EST (midnight), we may close the auction any time without reference to the 15 minute rule. Historically, the auction has stayed open until after 3 AM EST (including past 4 AM EST last year), but there is uncertainty after 12 AM EST (midnight).

We encourage everyone to consider using the Honest Auto Bid system to leave bids as it gets later in the evening.

We're in the office all day and night if anyone has questions.

Good luck to all!

They can have my lot.....no value there anymore.

Welp, I'm out on lot 400. If it had managed to stay below $1,000 before closing night, I'd have made one last bid. But $1,305 including the juice is just too much for those 4 cards, as much as I like them.

I'll just have to console myself with my new Johnson portrait. I'm just looking to find one I like.

Yikes!!! I'll hang in there until 2:00am but that's it.

Good luck to all except those thinking of bidding on MY lot.

You too, Rob. I hope you get what you're bidding on.

My biggest (and happiest) surprise is the PSA 4 e90-2 Wags busting out to 9600 right now with the juice. I adore this card and am bummed to be out of the bidding, but also happy for the card itself. I always thought it should break out one day and gain even more stature than it has. I had hopes of getting a few at one point, but as Austin Powers would say, "That train has sailed." Will be happy now with my one and only example.
