It appears that you were the winner by a few seconds, Glenn. I don't get it; "bid not accepted?" Who did you piss off at Propstore?
I've been watching an auction more than a few times, already imagining it framed on my wall, when some nerd with a sniping app comes in and crushes me with half a second to go. I'm a sore loser by nature so I don't take things like that well.
It seems like the final price should have been higher if Invaluable had indeed outbid you. It's a bit confusing. Jesus, 250 bucks would have been a great price...

Yes, but does the invaluable bidder not have a chance to increase?
I’m not sure why one wouldn’t bid invaluable instead of on PropStore’s great interactive live platform or by phone?

I have seen this a lot. Invaluable bids post at the close of the auction. All other bids are previous bids. So, two bids of the same amount means Invaluable bid loses.On Thu, Apr 18, 2024 at 5:08 PM Glenn Taranto <exit82afi...@gmail.com> wrote:Greg, et al -How's this for auction fun on a poster I've been looking for for a while now.Here I thought I was the high bidder for the last few days...Guess not!!!Invaluable SUCKS!!!!Est: $500 USD - $1,000 USDLot 314: YOUNG DONOVAN'S KID - One Sheet (27" x 41"); Fine on Linen
