Frank, I'm with you 100%. I feel that my BPH prostate condition gives me a bidding advantage over younger collectors who can't stay awake all night. When I went to bed around midnight on Saturday, I was winning a few lots in the REA auction. My prostate "alarm clock" woke me up to pee at 4:30 a.m. I checked my REA bids and saw that I was outbid on everything. So, I entered bids on the 2 lots I most wanted that hadn't already exceeded my budget for this auction, and I won them both!

Been there, done that.

As a corollary to the above, if you check the auction the morning after sorted by most recent bids, I guarantee that most of the first page will consist of "prostaters".
