Well I still say it should count coz it ends 23:59, SO its arguable as to which point it ended 23:59.00 or 23:59.59... I suppose its up to the seller?

Read rules:
2. Deadline
The deadline has to be clearly declared in the post and also in the title. The only accepted format is [yyyy-mm-dd|hh:mm].
(yyyy= year, mm= month, dd= day, hh-hour, mm= minute) Write this at the beginning of the title, then write your offer in the title-line. Auctions with other title-formats will get closed.
If the deadline is set for e.g. on 2007-01-01|12:00, the last accepted bid is on 11:59. Because 12:00 is at least a second to late.
Attention: Timezone Servertime (see the forum-clock in the top left corner or your ingame-profile)

Linden Agri,
Thank you for the clarification on the rules. I was ready to accept bids at 23:59 server time (22:59 post). However, you are correct. Bid had to be in by 23:58 server (22:58 to count). Guess I lost out on some money on this one

that's a bad thing for all the others who had placed a bid at 23.59
It is the rules... MaineForrests had to put up the deadline at 0.00hour...
