Hey everyone - I had a crazy idea over the weekend. I know this will NEVER happen, but I thought it was interesting enough to share and discuss. Most of us agree that the Legends releases are one of the best things that TLC has done recently - (...) (24 years ago, 25-Nov-02, to lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Kerry, That's a really well written analysis. Some problems with open ended bidding: - a day may not be enough - too long an extension results in auctions which do drag out (Serious Collector had this problem as I have mentioned before) I (...)

(...) Hmm. I wonder how many people have set up sniping-servers? I can well imagine a computer sitting on a fat, high-speed pipe, programmed to fire off sniping bids at precise times.
