That's the part I do get. What I didn't get was why a floor bidder can tie my bid, and my bid was submitted weeks before, but the floor bidder won it. My thinking was earliest bid should win, but they explained that I wasn't there to break the tie. Now, if I pre-bid in an auction, I walk away, and let the chips fall.
The auctioneer did say that if I really want something, just put "Bid To Win". He obviously had me mistaken for someone else.
