Anybody bidding in the Cardboard Classics Auction?

I'm kind of annoyed by what they're doing right now. They've essentially extended the auction indefinitely.

But bidders can only bid on lots they had bid on before extended bidding began. Nothing different than most other auction houses...

Really? Maybe I've betrayed my "noviceness" when it comes to these auctions.

Auction closed less than 2 hours after start of extended bidding. I prefer that to an auction that has extended bidding that is seemingly w/o end.

Sonny,

Same here, never bid with them before. I was winning two cards at the close of the regularly scheduled auction, and maintained the high bid through extended bidding. Factoring in the 15% buyers fee, they got some strong prices, but there were deals to be had too. I'm thrilled w/ my pickups. A 1953 Bowman Color #71, Paul Minner, PSA 7 for $18 and #125, Fred Hatfield, PSA 6 for $25. The latter is really well centered for this set, too.

If that extended auction bit is industry standard, I'll keep coming back.

This auction ended quickly. If this was one of the different auctions, this thing would have ran until 5 AM in the morning east coast time!!!
