Leland's Strange Lot Results or Software Bug?

If they found an issue with the lot, wouldn't they have written the few bidders that were on it? I will get an email from Sterling now and then and Huggins stating a description has changed on a lot I was active on.

Just seems strange to have it still in my bid list and green as if I won.

I am sure you will get an explanation from them but it really doesn't seem that strange to me. I am not saying this happened, but say you were the high bidder and they found out 2 of the cards were reprints. The consignor says they prefer it be shut down. Then it is withdrawn and you are accidentally not notified. Again, I have no clue but that doesn't seem implausible to me.

Also the reserve on the Jackson scrapbook lot really wasnt $5000 as this says or it wouldnt still have said "This reserve has not met reserve". No biggie as I wasnt bidding anyways

Lot number 240 was pulled as well. I was the only bidder before it was pulled. I'd like an explanation.

Dan,
Strange... Hopefully get an explanation. I am also looking for an explanation.... I had a wierd issue as well. I had the 6th bid on a lot last night, put in another bid and actually bid myself up, but is still showed my next bid as the 6th bid !?! It was about 2:11am, I sent an email to Laura and Cust Svc, and the autobot, reply rejected my emails. The other strange thing was I was just putting in another bid to protect my bid so I could go to bed, but when I put the bid in, it actually bumped me up to the max bid and of course I won the lot with my max bid, essentially outbidding my self. In other, other words, I was the underbidder and the winning bidder but I won on my max bid instead of my 2nd to last bid.

I sent Josh an email last night through Net 54, but have not heard back... Hoping this can get rectified. It's not a huge deal, but I cost myself $300+ due to bidding myself up

Does auction software actually allow a bidder to bid against himself?
