Who ever looks at calendar can see they pretty much take all times of day with very little holes to even consider a non auction time. As for the overlap, I think it was bound to happen, with same reason, too many auctions and way too often.
I very much agree with Jackson an auction is not as special anymore as it used to be from a customer/ seller point of view.
I am no auctioneer either and I do not envy you guys & girls >.<
I was never too frank about this because auctioneers frequently go beyond and above to do their very best to make something really cool of their event.
I quit auctions all together over a year ago it is just too much too often.
I think this is part of the reason people bail out at least it has that effect on me.
Overlapping auctions shouldn't be much of a problem I think because I went always to my favorite auction(s) as I can't spend money all the time ofcourse.
So I think everyone finds their favorite auctioneer(s).
I can understand though it may feel as lack of respect towards one and other.
