Simple Auctions Hacked Again

[Shamus]

As a bidder I prefer the nuisance shutdowns to the in-house shill bidding that was prevalent when the auction houses controlled the servers. Lesser of two evils.

As a consignor I wouldn't be thrilled with the stop and go format created by the hacks.

Welcome to the board. Please post your full name since you're making a comment about an auction company.

You may have forgotten (or not known) that many of SAS's auction houses have had the ability to see your max bid. So saying that this way beats in-house software is not correct in this case.

Do they still have that option? That they have to manually turn off seeing Max Bids placed using SAS websites?

Might be a tweener on that one. Not sure he called out a specific company?

You're the boss. I figured since guys like Heritage still have the ability to outbid you on their platform (rule 21), that his comment wasn't all in the past.

I wouldn't try to nitpick and he didn't call out a company to me.

My thought is always, if someone said that in my direction would I want to know who said it? In this case it's not really in anyone's direction, at least to me. It's a blanket statement. Always appreciate the help though. I need it.
