I have to take exception.. you haven't experienced a late night auction until you bid from the UK. . 9pm closing time = 2am UK time. Normally, I have to just put my best bid on a few items and go to bed.

But on the rare occasion where I'm chasing a card that I "have to get", I've set an alarm to wake up at 4am to check on things in extended bidding.

I was just going to say that. I bid on alot of auctions from SE Asia where there is a 12 hour difference, which puts auction ending between noon and 2pm on Monday or some auctions on Sunday. Those Monday afternoon closings can be very difficult trying to juggle everything else going on. Sunday afternoon closings are great as I know I will win the battle of attrition.
