Did anyone else win items from the auction? How did everyone do? I won the Clemens Houston Gamer and the Varitek All Star Jersey. I'm still second guessing not bidding higher on the Jim Rice gamer. Amazing how the Elway jersey only went for $1,000.

I can't figure it out. I had high bids that were higher than the final bid but I wasn't shown as the winner. the only item they showed I won was the Chad Cordero All Star BP jersey.....

I called them so I will see what they say. Very confused!

Andrew,

I too don't understand what's up with their system.

Was watching the auction on eBay and a lot of the prices ended at less then the bids were on their site.

As an example, one item had a bid on their site at 1000 with the next bid at 1100 which I bid. When the bidding started on eBay, it was lower and finished at 850, and I didn't win.

Sure smells like a fish market here.

I just spoke to Jamie and she was great and said my bid should take precedence even though I am not shown as the winner. This is one example. Here is my high bid email taking me up to $900 with a current high bid of $825 and then you will see below that $900 was the winning bid but my bidlist shows me as outbid:

It ended at $900 so I should have won----so I thought. I checked my winning bids and this ended up in losing bids.

Sheffield bat lot

#6564289033 - 604: Six Major League Autographed Bats Sheffield

Hello,
I'm looking for the winner of the above auction? There was a common Angels bat in the auction (what looks to be a Craig Grebeck Angels bat), I'm interested in buying it. So if you see this e-mail let me know if you want to sell it? Also I'm looking for game used Angels bats from 1990-present, non stars, stars to no names.

Jim Pratt of Geppis is diligently working on the issues. Here is what they just sent out:

Geppis - 10 days & counting

Well so I thought Jim Pratt was diligently working on this. My auctions ended Oct 27th and Jim never called me back last week as I left him 3 messages and talked to Laura with the Geppis Auction. She told me Thursday that Jim was out sick but someone else would call me. No calls from anyone.

The customer service has turned to horrible. My next call should be from Steve Geppi. I can understand computer glitches but a return phone call would be nice.

To remind everyone, I was high bid and never received outbid notices on several lots. After the auction ended I still had the high bid but the auctions showed up in my "lost bids".

Here is an example:

This is an automated message to notify you that your bid will compete for
you during the live auction!

--- You are the preliminary high bidder. ---
Item No: 835
Item Description: Nl All Star Albert Pujols # 5
Your Maximum Bid: $900.00
Current High Bid: $825.00

During the live auction, a representative will bid by increments on your
behalf as needed to the maximum amount you specified (above). You may be
outbid during the live auction.

If you would like to place bids during the live auction by phone, please
contact us toll free at 1-877-762-3749 (or 001-410-427-9456 from outside

representatives available to reach you as your lots open. Top advance

It ended at $900 so I should have won----so I thought. I checked my winning bids and this ended up in losing bids.

This is just my opinion based on what I know about auctions in general, but it sounds like someone placed a bid of $900 before you put in your ceiling bid. If 2 bidders make a bid in the same amount, the first bid takes priority. I've had situations like this happen to me before, so I always place a bid like $903 and even include cents if possible (i.e. $903.56), that way there is a slim chance of me and someone else placing ceiling bids in the same amount. Just my 2 cents.

Geppi's - What is going on????

November 7 2005, 2:32 PM
Astro_Fan -

Thanks for your response. I agree with you and that is my point. As you will see in the email that I posted above I was high bid at $835 with a $900 ceiling which means I posted first and the next bid when the auction went live was at $900. My $900 posted earlier so I should have retained the high bid.

Since posting my earlier email, Kristen from Geppi's has now called me. She has no answer for me yet but said she is working on it.
