You must mean entertaining if you aren’t bidding! I can’t imagine any bidder feels anything other than frustration in this mosh pit of an auction.

Both.  Mostly for what I’m not bidding on, but, also, it doesn’t require one to bid impulsively.

If anyone thought that, as suggested, the website would drive folks away, you are sadly mistaken.  I bid on about ten boxes of ammunition, all antique stuff except one modern box of .275 Holland & Holland Magnum ammunition and I was outbid on every one of them, sometimes substantially!

I guess everyone has their opinion on whether they like it or not. Auction closed.my time at 3:45 AM. I definitely wasn’t staying Awake to watch it end. It’s a max bid and cross your fingers deal for those on the East Coast.

Agreed, this auction certainly favors the West Coast. Sucks for the rest of us east of the Mississippi. I also agree the format didn’t seem to keep anyone away. The bidding was robust and I found zero great deals but a few fair ones. The items I watched drew enough bidders to ensure they traded for at a minimum a fair price and in many cases a nice premium for the seller. Still hate the format but if I was on the West Coast I might like the advantage. One can only hope they at least add a Watch list or favorites feature!
