Is anyone watching or bidding on these calls? I bid on a couple and right at the end they added a few minutes. They have done that 3 times now, added a few minutes to the bid cycle. It was suppose end at 6:00 and they keep bumping it up. It's 6:15 now and still a few minutes to go. Is that crooked or what?

I was on 2 items and got outbid during the allotted time on 1, so no big deal. What I didn't like was squeezing in a bid before time ran out and the 5 minute upset deal kicked in. Went through that again and finally realized I could get the Pot/Striker cheaper from the Callmaker himself. That thing has gone on forever, way past my paygrade!

Ended with a 3 hour 12 minute overtime. Some deals and some eye openers. Didn't score anything personally this time, but still had fun! Not always about the take, but the chase!

I wasn't a fan of how the auction was extended 314 times.

They got to do something! Someone or somebody's have put them in a jam with miss management and they want us blue collar workers to bail them out like everything else these days. Let the big wigs figure it out and do what they have to and straighten there mess out. Take big big pay cuts, get their big money buddies they catered to help bail them out "oh there nowhere to be found" imagine that, and so on and so on

It is to raise funds for NWTF.

That being said should end on time....

I got tired of sitting by the computer and having the ending bid time moved up over and over again. This was like the U.S.-Russia basketball game with extra time added on--on steroids. I won't play along again. End of bidding time means that.

It just shows that the NWTF has strayed from their roots. I would like to see the NWTF post the salaries of the top 10% of their salaried/paid Management and Employees. This would bring their honesty to the forefront. Many people hold back giving because of mistrust. It would be interesting to see how much a percent of the funds go toward overhead and how much of the percentage goes to the turkeys.

Overall the auction was a great success, what's funny is no one is thanking Briana Alley for volunteering her time in pulling off this auction .. thank you Briana for all your hard work and donating your time in making this Auction great success.. OVER 17,000 dollars she helped raise with help from all the great call builders ... these are the people we should be thanking...

I was one of the donors. She did work really hard to put this together and took some awesome photos of our calls. I just wasn't a fan of how it was ran by the company that was used.
