Im an auctioneer (real estate) and understand that they have a responsibility to their consigners. However first and foremost, they have a responsibility to abide by the terms and conditions of the auctions aka "THE RULES". If the auction says it ends at 11 oclock with a 30 minute rule to follow, these are the rules. These rules set the parameters for everyone. If we do not follow these rules than whats next for these auction houses and what do we have rules for?!?! Its bothers me when i see things like this happen...it just keeps hurting the hobby and integrity of some of the major outlets that we buy and sell cards through.
