I usually place my bids as close the the end of the auction as possible.This has not been a problem on Delcampe up until this week.Earlier this week I placed a bid 30 seconds from the end of the auction.As soon a s I confirmed the bid the auction was marked closed even though the time showed 24 seconds and continued to count down to zero.There were no other bids on the auction.
Today I decided not to take any chances with the item I was interested in and I bid 1 minute and 25 seconds before the closed and again as soon as I confirmed my bid the auction was marked closed even though the time showed 1 minute 13 seconds left and the clock ticked down to zero.Again also no other bids on this item.
Am I missing some new Delcampe regulation????????Has anyone out there had a similar experience?????????Also a couple of Delcampe sellers out a couple of sales.Appreciate your comments!! Jim

Same thing again.Bid placed 1 minute before end of auction.Next screen does not confirm bid but indicate auction closed even though the auction clock on the items has not expired.I have sent several emails to Delcampe for explanation but have not received any response nor any confirmation that I sent an email which probably means they do not know what the hell is going on or are just tooooooooooo busy to reply.Again I ask has anyone had a similar experience!!!!!!!
