The Block seemed to have gotten the recent auctions price reserve horribly wrong . Seemed like a very unprofessional and damaging call on The Blocks part . Clearly the majority of bidders were expecting a much lower reserve since they all dropped out at the reserve price ! The Block stuffed up big time . And the majority of contestants missed out on a reasonable profit for 3 months of bloody hard work. Some of course, got nothing. What a dud .
