Great Collections moving out auction dates?

manlye1

Have you noticed GC moving out auction dates to the next Sunday close? The first time it happed to me I though I was crazy, now it has happened on 2 different coins in the recent weeks. Has this happened to anyone else?

He is saying that the auction end date is changing.

IE. An auction slated to end this sunday suddenly has an end date of the next sunday.

I have not noticed that on anything on my watchlist yet.

We’re there any bids on those coins?

Yes the auctions moved out one week, and yes there were bids but only 1 on both auctions..

Maybe because is Easter Sunday? Just a guess to honor the day.

Perhaps there was some kind of error in the listing, some info changed, or different photos were added. I could see pushing out the end date so people have more time to evaluate the new info.

I only recall it happening once in 2020 but that was sitewide.

Hi - what is the item number in question? It rarely happens - two reasons could be a corrupt image or typo. We try to let bidders know in a situation like this.

We did list 750 items today for a client and he requested them be split up over 5 weeks, so we took the liberty to list all of them, even though some are not ending until late May. In this case, the dates did not change, just that we listed them all early.
