no more late nights
no more sniping
here it is

c) “30-Minute Rule”: You must place an initial bid on anitem before 10:00 PM Eastern Time on auction
closing day to be eligible to bid on that item during theextended bidding period that starts at 10:00 PM.
If you are the only bidder on a given lot at 10:00 PM thenthat lot is automatically closed out and you are
declared the winner. At 10:00 PM Eastern Time, the 30 MinuteRule starts and EACH lot will close
individually after that lot goes 30 minutes with no newbids. Whenever a new bid is placed, the 30-
minute timer will be reset and the countdown will restart.If you are the current high bidder on a lot and
you change your ceiling bid after 10:00 PM, this will notextend the bidding time, only a bid placed by
another bidder or a higher "straight bid" placedby the current high bidder will reset the ending time on
that lot. This rule provides all bidders the opportunity tobid on the lots they are eligible to bid on
without getting "sniped" due to time constraints.Bidders need to watch their MyAccount page and login
first to see status of lots that they are bidding on duringextended bidding.
The Company may edit the closing rules of any auction due tothe size of the
auction or any technical issues that may occur. The Companywill email our bidders if there is any
change in the closing procedure that deviates from theabove. The Company is not responsible if
an individual user has unsubscribed from GA’s notificationemails and therefore the user does not
receivethe closing update emai

That's great news Ken. Also good to see the transparency of emailing any change in the closing procedure. Lelands has some very subtle yet key language within their lot by lot rule set that basically renders the whole lot by lot format, moot.

Lelandsreserves the right, in its sole discretion, to shorten or extend these closing times, as it deems appropriate
