So did the internet work for some, but not others? Or were all of those bids during the last hour entered by phone? Very frustrating, but I realize there was no clear-cut "best solution" for REA. I was just surprised it ended at a time when the site was still completely frozen. Knowing REA, I bet the next auction runs like a charm and that this was a one-time occurrence. But I'd also bet that more people will utilize ceiling bids next time around!

I had intermittent access on and off during the last hour or so...I thought I placed a updated bid, but didn't know if it when through...because the site timed out... turned out I did when I got access again, but when I went to check on it again a minute later, it timed out again, turned out I got sniped for which I didn't get to see until it ended a short time later. I wanted to stay active until the end, but gave up too.
