I can deal with the shouting and carrying on. But if I'm actively bidding on a locker, I'd like you to get the heck out of my way so I can get a good look! They seemingly purposefully stood in front of each and every locker during the bidding, almost shoulder to shoulder. I don't think I'll be seeing them again, but this was my last opportunity of the week to purchase a locker.
Luckily I have the body mass & attitude to say "Get your goofy a$$ out of the way!!" & just push my way through. I realize for some men & most women that might be kind of difficult to do.
Like Storme said; most people aren't looking for confrontation so go ahead and assert yourself next time, you shouldn't have a problem, and if you do most of the time the auctioneer, facility owner/manager AND the rest of the crowd will back you up.
Reminds me of a time about 2 years ago: One newbie came out, he was young, early twenties, look current or ex- military. Anyway he was bidding on units and as each unit he bid on that he didn't win he got madder & madder. Finally on one unit he lost he started getting in the face of one of the other bidders, It was wierd cause it wasn't like he was mad at that guy, but he was just taking out is frustration on that guy, cussing, complaining about prices to high, blah, blah, blah, Well other bidder was like; dude I don't know you, get out of my face, go complain to someone else, stop yelling in my ear. Newbie then got really offended and mad that some stranger didn't wan't to be his new best friend. That's when he started talking trash like he was going to give the bidder an 'attitude adjustment'. Well bidder was well known regular, so before newbie could blink there were like 10 more guys backing up the regular. Newbie backed off and never returned for another auction.
