It's annoying, but it's made to keep things fair. |

I think that pixpet could fix this by making it so 10 second before the auction ends you can't bid on it. I also want to point out it can be really annoying when for you a action might end at, lets say, 2:00 am but for someone else it ends at, 9:00 am and you don't want to pull an all nighter for a online gamebut you want your pixpet, its not fun. |

Yes and I know that someone in my timezone would not appreciate if I stayed up all night to bid on a pixpet they really wanted, another thing I don't like about auctions. |
