Actually Stampede Cattle is my client and I hired Phillip to work on the project. We built it before Flex came out, but you could do all of it in Flex. The trick is that the streaming media and live data is handled by FlashCom.
We have built auctions for other companies as well, but none in Flex...yet...
However, according to MM press releases, server push will be available with the Mistral release, so this could be done without FCS when that is released....

Subject: RE: [flexcoders] Running an auction with Flex
Check out this site:
http://livebid.mastronet.com
It is a live bidding site for high-end sports memorabilia. They run a periodic auction of a few thousand lots with around 20,000 bidders. The Flex site runs live, with updates to prices being pushed to the client via FCS.
Mastronet.com has a new auction that will be up and running starting next week, so I would suggest coming back and checking it out once that auction is up.
I was in on the development side of the site, so if you have any questions, please send them along.

Is it possible for someone to make a web page that will run an auction say to sell items? If so does anyone know of sample I can look at?
