Auction closing methods - individual vs. simultaneous lot closing

Posted By: JimB

I know that is true in some cases. I was guilty of that sort of bidding on individual E93s a few auctions back. But I also know of at least one case (a different auction house) where people stopped bidding on individual cards quite early when they realized the set as a whole was going to be won by a single individual

Perhaps an appropriate tweek to speed things up, if you want to keep doing those types of set/indiv card lots, would be a 15 minute rule on lots being sold two ways as opposed to a 30 minute rule on all other lots. I realize it could get confusing if people don't pay attention, but I imagine it could be highlighted.
