It turned out to be a great suggestion... much easier to just show the countdown timer than try to explain whether the auction closes at 11:45 or 12:45 (and still be in a different timezone than many of our clients). It also provides a logical place for a "sniping" warning. Thanks. - Tom@bmetal
I should thank you for adding the "Time Remaining" field I requested to your TBR auctions as it makes it much easier to track and bid.
