Just about every auction house has some type of 15-minute rule (or similar time frame) along with the statement in their terms and conditions that they reserve the right to end the auction at any time if bidding goes beyond (XX:XX AM). If that was not enforced, I'm sure that other auction house events would be doing the same thing as the one going on right now. To me, this has gone beyond rediculous, I don't really care if it is benefitting the consignors or not.
