deadlines & close of online bidding<br>
<br>
Internet bidding closes at 12:00 PM. Internet listing may not be complete until day before the Auction, so please keep checking back.<br>
Note: This auction has a 5 minute auto extend feature. For example, if the end time of the auciton is 10am and a bid is placed at 9:59am, the bidding time will extend 5 minutes and now have a closing time of 10:04 for that items. This will continue until no more bids are placed in the last 5 minutes of bidding. This prevents 'sniping', the placing of bids at the very last second not allowing the previous bidder time to respond. <br>
