The same goes for auctions, a few years ago I woke up early drove for two hours to go to a heavy machinery auction. There was no parking for buyers onsite but instead had to park in a lot 5 miles away then take a shuttle to the auction. After spending half a day waiting for the dozer I wanted to hit the block, basically trapped there, buying overpriced coffee and vending machine snacks. I was out bid by an online purchaser from a different country, the next time the auction came around I stayed home, bid online and got my machine.
