That is true. We have tried every different ending and have come to the conclusion that if you make people sh** or get off the pot then they will bid. If not then we had bidders playing the "let's see if we can wait out the other guy until he falls asleep with a measly bid" syndrome. There is NO perfect ending method but we like the each lot ending on it's own, best.

Also, at least one s/w that is employed will not allow individual endings so that is something that has to be taken into account where applicable. Most AH's use SimpleAuction s/w and their s/w can be instructed to end either at once or separately. Hope this helps.
