Believe it or not, the authors purified 200 mg of a crude peptide using three 4.6 x 50 mm columns strung together in a series.

Briefly, the sample is loaded in aqueous TFA, isocratically eluted with MeCN/TFA (MeCN amount should be 20% less than % required for elution of desired component in normal gradient HPLC). Next, % MeCN is increased (so that it is 15% lower than % required in gradient elution). This is held isocratically for 70 min, where eventually desired product is eluted in high purity and near quantitative recovery.

I know nothing about this technique. Can anyone give a little insight as far as pitfalls, etc?

This site sounds about right. They have a Displacement Chromatography 101 section on their site, with cute little Flash videos.
