Placing an auto-bid online via our platform is when our system will automatically bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid(auto bid) using the pre-determined bidding increments. This can begin as soon as an auction is published & the sales begin. If a bidder is winning the lot and is later outbid, they will receive an email notification. If two bidders leave the same auto bid and that bid wins the lot, the bidder who left the bid first will be the winner. The earliest auto bid takes priority when it is equal to the normal bid or equal auto bid placed later.
