Bid Now on 3500+ Lots in REA's Spring Auction - Register For a Free Catalog!

[wondo]

One of my lots is marked SOLD. The other has had additional time added.

[jayshum]

Here's what I am seeing at 12:51.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Eventually someone is going to get drunk enough to outbid me if this keeps up.

[jayshum]

And now everything is open again until 1:00:19. I should probably just give up and go to bed and see if I won anything in the morning.

[BobbyStrawberry]

Glad I stayed sober for this one.

[bounce]

every new bid keeps extending the whole thing

ok - good luck people

i've had enough

[Casey2296]

[chadeast]

Yep, everything closed around 12:55, even though every lot showed a closing time of 1:00:19.

EDIT: and now every lot is open again closing at 1:06!!

That's what I see on My Bids page. When I look at an actual item page, it shows around 20 hours remaining but also says the auction is in Preview Mode.

[Peter_Spaeth]

Like a presidential election, this one isn't getting called tonight.

Most of mine too, but one of them shows 23 hours and 58 minutes remaining.

[Kaneen]

One of the lots I won a couple of times...then lost a couple of times...and now currently am winning again...says it is open for bidding with 19 hours and 55 minutes left.

I'm betting we get an email that says they are extending this til tomorrow night. And now our high bids are "sitting ducks" for bidders to regroup and decide they want back in.

[jayshum]

I just called REA and there was a recording saying they are aware of problems and are working on them. All communications will be through email and they will extend the auction as necessary. No option to talk to anyone.

[troutbum97]

They really should check the time stamps of the bids, remove any & all bids after midnight sharp tonight (when the server crashed), and resume/ restart the auction at midnight tomorrow w/ 10 min clocks on all lots.

Seriously, there's been plenty of time to bid on all lots, more than usual! They really need to find a way to close this tonight.

[whiteymet]

Now it appears the auction has been extended 24 hours

[sflayank]

now it says 20 hrs

[LEHR]

Everything shows closed now and that I won one lot. Almost afraid to go to bed at this point.

[Sean]

So if it continues tomorrow, can I place an initial bid now?

Thank you for your patience during this time. Access to the site is restored but we understand that some users may still be experiencing issues. As such, in accordance with our Terms & Conditions, we are extending the auction in order to allow for uninterrupted access. In order to effect this plan, the auction servers may start and stop at various points in the short term.

The auction will now end Monday, April 25 at 9 PM EDT. In lieu of extended bidding, the auction will go directly into the 10-minute lot-by-lot closing at 9 PM EDT. Please note that during this extension, only bidders who were qualified to participate during extended bidding will be allowed to participate.

Please stay tuned to your email for updates.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

[Casey2296]

WTH! They closed two of my wins that had no bids in the last 30 min, and just reopened them.

Who gets drunk on a Sunday Night and on the Eve of a Confederate Holiday........actually..........check that................nevermind.

[Peter_Spaeth]

2 minutes until I win for the third time. Deja vu all over again next?

[sb1]

Same here. I just bid on a lot, then got outbid and went to rebid and it's closed., others are still open and extended...

[sb1]

And now it's back open...

[bounce]

i would add

if anyone wins the Sovereign pack lot, or the Sweet Cap/Piedmont pack lot, i'd be interested in buying one of each

i don't want all of them enough to keep bidding

[YazFenway08]

One of mine marked “sold”.

Then refreshed and now open again. I understand acts of God, etc….but not sure how they unwind this

I will go out on a limb, having no contact at all with the AH, and say this will be continued tomorrow night...just a guess

If that really happens, there will be a slew of pissed off people. They've already far exceeded the allotted time to bid on lots with no activity in "overtime".

Man, I hope not.
Every bidder that wanted a chance to bid on an item past it's allotted time could have done that over the last hour of this nonsense.

One auction I'm bidding on has been bid up an additional $500 during this...I'm still winning it but these issues have essentially cost me $500 plus BP.

now says 24hrs left

Wow, who would have thought that? It was the only smart thing to do, imo.

All I can say is I am glad Net54 did not crash...and thank you to everybody for posting timely updates.

Probably, but at the same time depending on how many people who had won tonight get outbid tomorrow, may not be pretty.

[Peter_Spaeth]

It seems odd to me that a site issue would then be followed by what seems to be a software issue, but what do I know.

[Aaron Seefeldt]

it's all part of the hack. Nothing is working right.

Now the SOLD lot is open and I’ve been outbid. Good night all.
