BIDDING PROCEDURES:
Online auctions move quickly! If you are interested in bidding, bid quickly, especially at the close of bidding time. The bidding software will notify bidders by email or text when they have been outbid. Bidders may also discover if they have been outbid by refreshing the individual lot information or the entire screen. Due to varying internet connection speeds, please place a maximum bid or continuously monitor the auction as it closes. Sometimes, email or text notifications can be delayed. If you win, you will be notified by email.
MAX BIDS:
Internet bidders who want to ensure their bids are acknowledged should use the Internet bidding feature and leave their maximum bid. The current bid price does not automatically increase to your maximum bid when you reach your maximum bid. Someone else has to bid to increase the current price, and the computer will automatically bid up to your maximum in the specified increments. Max bids are taken in the order they are placed.
AUCTION END TIMES:
All auctions are timed events and are subject to auto-extend. Online Auctions have an auto-extend feature of 5 minutes. For any bid placed within the final 5 minutes of an auction, the auction ending time will be automatically extended by 5 minutes from the time the bid was placed. The auto-extend feature remains active until no further bids are received within 5 minutes. At the close of the auction, all bidders are encouraged to review the catalog if the auction is extended. All lot(s) will remain open during the extension period.
Staggered Ending: This Auction has a five-minute extension time. If any lots receive a bid, the bidding time will be extended by an additional 5 minutes. This information will be provided on the auction details page.
Extended Bidding:
Our auctions use the Auto-Extend feature. The basic rule is that there must be a minimum of 5 minutes for a bidder to react to a bid. If a bid is placed within the final 5 minutes for an item, the ending time is automatically extended to allow for a 5-minute reaction time. If another bid is received during that 'extended time,’ the ending time is extended again, if necessary, for five additional minutes for each extension. This process continues and repeats until no more bids are submitted. This 'Auto-Extend' feature makes the bidding process fairer for all bidders and allows them to respond to any last-minute bid(s). Items are Auto-extended ONLY if a bid is placed within 5 minutes of the scheduled closing time.
