Okay, I see it now... The correction which was made previously was in error.

 

You had Bid $20.00 on Item #10 and the Bid was placed on Item #11.

 

This would have been caught when the bidding was nearing the end.

 

In fact I made the decision to add current bidders to the Auction which is

being conducted by Wes Wilburn and April Wilburn. It is fair, just an error.
