I put in an absentee bid on a gun on Thursday for the Saturday auction. I called on Saturday to up my bid and they had no record of my first bid! They took my new bid and I made it clear that I did not want to bid aganist my self.
They called about 1/2 hour later and confirmed that they had found my original bid and canceled it. They blamed computer problems, but I wonder if it worked in my favor. I won the gun I was bidding on and it closed at less than the low estimate!
It was a good day!
