there has never been an REA auction in which all the lots did not close at once.

It's a new format. It's a hard close at midnight, like an eBay auction. Snipe-fest. They should look at the Bagger's model... Grabbed this one. Nice pick-ups, y'all.

that’s not what the post said. rea auctions have always closed all the lots at once. the hard close is hardly new. i think this was the third or fourth REA auction that used it. not a big deal, especially in a hobby where facts often are considered irrelevant.

Ronnie, I used to wake up a 4 AM and sit around wondering when it might close...4:15, 4:36, 5:17...you cannot snipe, if you don't know what time it closes. I knew it was closing at exactly midnight Eastern, like an eBay auction.

If you bid within the last 5 minutes in Bagger's, the other person has 5 minutes to respond. I'm just giving my 2 cents on how I would do it. They can do it however they want...Rob

I won this Stan Mikita pre-rookie. Pretty cool. I didn't even know this card existed until I saw it in the auction.

In my opinion it is an extremely poor way for an auction to end. With Heritage ending Thursday night, Lelands Friday, and Goldin Saturday, and all having lot by lot closings, you at least have time to decide whether you want to pay more so the guy willing to pay the most gets the item. For me, REA is more of a crapshoot because you can easily get sniped at the end. In last night’s case I wanted one very expensive item pretty badly so I concentrated on that rather than also trying for the other lots I wanted. I ended up getting it but if it was a lot by lot closing I would have likely won more. And the answer of just putting in my highest ceiling bid on each lot doesn’t really work for me because I can change my mind from minute to minute. I know there’s an argument that this way is better but I don’t understand how any closing method which doesn’t get the highest prices is in any way good for the consignor, let alone the bidders.

Got into a bidding war with someone who obviously wanted this as badly as myself. Glad he (or she) finally went to bed!! Three HOFers (Rube Foster, Pete Hill, & Louis Santop (the guy I REALLY needed)).

That was my card. I'm glad that it stayed in the Net54 family.
