This morning I checked & several auctions I was watching had about 9 hours left. Now when I check, GL has added a full day more to the auction, making it end on friday instead of thursday. Several auctions say up at 5:00 in red high lights, but click on them & it's another day. I wonder what's up with that?

There were 2 trucks I was bidding on that got extended.

If there is anything that should be illegal, this is it.

As I have said before, GL upholds the finest traditions of American business.

So if I want a "Clinto Approved" truck I just need to bid on one near you that was extended?

Wouldn't do me any good - E U C..................

Someday................

They were not getting big enough bids on them, some items didn't even have the min $150 on them.

GL has been the pits lately. I have never had any issues with them in the past but wow have they screwed up my last EUC. I think they need to hire more help.:deadhorse:

It was done 1-2hrs before the ending of the auctions today. You should have seen all of the last minute bids, some of the stuff I was watching went up $3000 in 15 min then they noticed the auction didn't end.

GL :roll:

I bid on some trucks a 4pm, walked away as I normally do, came back in about 5:30 to see what I had won or lost and noticed they have extended the auction 24 hours. This makes a guy just wonder If they like pissing everyone off or what. It just dosen't seem right some of the things they have been doing.

Here is what happened. I believe that GL wanted to try a new plan to increase sales by getting the newbies to bid at the last minute on two days thereby increasing the prices substantially...and being newbies they will comply. Fortunately, I was not bidding, but I'd be pissed if they had pulled this on an auction on which I was bidding. Guiys have to be kidding themselves to believe that GL staff don't watch this list. They saw on a previous thread how many guys said they come in and bid at the last minute...and it happened again. I was watching and saw trucks jump a couple thousand in the last 10 minutes.
