I'm getting some extra rest for REA Saturday

Leon- I probably am in the minority but I am also not a collector. I just look for values so I know my limits long before the close.

But I still maintain that with a different system exactly the same number of bids could be placed, with no harm to the bidder or consignor, and the auction could close earlier. Maybe there are many collectors who are willing to stay up until 4:00 AM, but I doubt many of them would complain if the auction ended on its own at an earlier hour. If you had all your limit bids in by 1:00 AM and then the auction closed, and you got the lots you wanted, what's the downside?

I'm actually curious what people think about whether auctions close too late or not, and wanted to do a poll. Of course, I spent ten minutes clicking every link and could not figure out how to do it.

Barry -

You have to start a new thread. Then select the "Post A Pole" option just above the "Submit" "Preview" buttons.

I tried Tim and still got flustered. Jim VB is going to set it up for me.

I think I just figured it out but I'll wait and see if Jim does it first.

Tim,


LOL!

"Post a Pole"????



Wonka is holding for you, on line 2.



(Just came back from dinner and see that Barry has figured it out.)

Did you know that the center for the Warsaw basketball team is a ten foot Pole?
