I feel like a complete A$$hole asking what people won now! My sincere apologies as wasn't trying to screw anyone over. I though 15 minute rule closed it.
Bidding is still open. As per the terms and conditions, the entire auction closes after 15 minutes pass with no bids in the auction. There was a temporary issue with the software that has been adjusted. We will announce when the auction closes. Sorry for any confusion.
Sincerely,

We're not even talking a 15 minute window - it's extended another HOUR...
If this is for real, this is BS!!!
2. The final day for bidding on items will be listed on the 8D Auction website and 8D Auctions will also send out reminders of the auction close date. The regular session for the auction will close at 8:00 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time). After 8:00 pm PST, the 15 minute rule will be in effect. Specifically, on the night of the auction closing, starting at 8:00 pm PST, the entire auction will be extended and remain open until no bids have been placed, either online or by phone, for a period of 15 minutes. During that time period, if any bids are placed, either online or by phone, the entire auction will be extended another 15 minutes. Once 15 minutes pass without any bids being placed, either online or by phone, the entire auction will close. This rule is intended to allow all bidders who have placed bids prior to 8:00 pm PST on the final day of the auction the opportunity to place final bids prior to an item’s close without getting shut out due to time constraints or busy phone lines. When the auction is over, callers will be greeted with a message letting them know the auction is over and a message will also appear on the website stating that the auction has ended.
So how does 15 minutes become an HOUR? I would really like an answer to this question.

Chris -
I was writing when you were, but I have refreshed, logged out and logged back in and everyone of my auctions says 45+ minutes still remaining...
How is that a 15 minute window? Unless the software issue is still occurring?

The clock when I look at it right now shows 45 minutes or so left.
I think someone must have screwed up on the closing of the items. In order to make it up they must have extended the initial bidding period a hour. Then another 15 min with no bid on any items before closing. Just my guess.
