I, too, agree that the Leland's lots never seem to close.
Watched the end of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim-
Yankee game and Lelands went on well past the game
and the replay of the game. I checked at 3:30 AM and the
auction was still open.
On the plus side, I managed to win 3 of 4 lots
and two of the three lots were at less than my maximum
bid.
My experiences with maximum bids varies with the auction
house. At Robert Edwards Auctions and Goodwin Auctions
when I have won it has always been at less than the maximum
Winning at Mastro is such a rare thing, that I have had
to go to the maximum. However, I believe that Doug Allen
runs a fair auction...and I have never worried about being
bid up.
There are a few other companies, where this was clearly
not the case.
