Superior is confusing

On every lot that I was the high bidder on throughout yesterday and until I went to bed, I have emails this morning saying I have been outbid. Go to my bids, the current bid is at my high bid, where yesterday I was noted as the high bidder, but says I am not the high bidder now. Again, it lists the current high bid, lists my high bid being the same, and says I am not the high bidder now, and tells me what amount I need to bid next. Quite confusing.

    If some one entered their bid in for the same amount as yours, yet their bid was "earlier", the other bidder wins the lot.

    I thought I had won an IHC on their last auction, but lost the lot. When I complained - by email - they told me the above senario. I didn't receive an email saying I had been out bid though. This practice must be new.

  • Did Superior end the internet bidding early last night for the Morgans? I went to place a bid at 1:30AM my time CDT. I thought that would put it at 11:30PM PDT, 30 minutes before the posted time when bidding would be stopped. All the lots I went to said bidding had ended. Do I have my time differences wrong?

    edited: Phamer..I had the same thing happen. Maybe they openned up the mail bids and they were dated before our electronic bids.
