Quick question

Quick question, anyone here ever use the auction site gottahaverockandroll.com? I only ask because up until yesterday all of the items people were bidding on were scheduled to end today at 7pm. And all of a sudden yesterdat their were 7 more days added to the time making the bidding end next Friday. I wasn't sure if it were an error so I called them up on the phone and asked them what is going on. They told me that I was right about the added time and that they decided yesterday to add 7 days on to the auction due to them not originally realizing that it is a holiday week and people have to travel during this time. Makes no sense to me because the holiday is actually next week. Yesterday I decided to bid on an item that had not bids on it yet. I did this because it was supposed to end in 1 day and I figured my chances would be pretty good that nobody else would bid on it within the next 24 hours. Only to later find out that there is a whole other week added to it. What do you think about how they went about this? Has anyone here ever used this auction site? Is this type of practice wrong to do?

Sorry, I moved the question. The minimum bid was set at the $350 when I first placed me bid on it. When I woke up the next day it was changed and I no longer was listed as a bidder at any point for the item. I've had some unusual experiences with online auction sites the last few days. They do seem to have some decent prices on most of there stuff though. I am currently the high bid on 6 other signed albums on iconic. Last month I won 4 albums on their as well. I find that a good amount of the time the 1st bidder on the item usually takes it. I guess when others see that someone has already bid they back away. Unless of course it is some incredible deal.
