REA is open

[LEHR]

I’m currently winning two lots which is nice, but my consignment seems to be floundering. Ya win some and lose some.

Looks like it is over now.

I believe I was in a bidding war in the extended bidding that ended up in the last item to close in the auction

Hope everyone participated (as a consignor and/or bidder) was delighted with the results

It ended kind of like a Probstein ebay auction. I almost got sniped on one. Had all of my lots received snipes, I could not have recovered in time.

Got out hammered on everything I was bidding on, but my 1 "win" didn't meet the reserve so looks like I'm batting .000 for this one.

That’s a bummer.
I spent the first four hours or so of extended bidding watching my one high bid do nothing, then jump up right at the end. Still landed it though, but I thought I had a steal for a while!

What was it?

I think REA did a great job—some super realizations and everyone gets to get a good night’s sleep.

I placed a slew of "placeholders" the day the auction opened. I actually won 1 lot at the opening bid - first time ever!!! Then I planned carefully and figured out a method of sniping multiple items within seconds. I won a bunch including the top 3 I wanted (63 Clemente Bazoooka box, 62 Mantle Bazooka box and 62 Aaron Bazooka box). Just missed #4 (59 Mays Bazooka box)- can't win em all I guess. Prices seemed all over the place - some stuff crazy high, some stuff lower than I would have expected -full disclosure - mostly post war that I was playing with).

I'm not complaining. I got some good deals on some neat stuff. I would have spent more money had it gone on till 2 AM. C'est la vie.

I didn't know they have lots that have reserves. Interesting...

The lot I wanted most I got outbid on at 11:59 and managed to sneak one more impulse bid in at midnight to win it. Pretty sure the under bidder didn't even get notice that they were outbid until after it was over.

One other thing I'll add, I really wish REA's software would allow you to sort your bids to see which you are winning. If you only have 2 or 3 bids, I'm sure it is not a problem, but if you place a lot of bids to give yourself options in extended bidding, it is annoying scrolling through trying to find what you are still winning.
