TERMS:

(i)Auto | Max Bids:
The online bidding system allows for an “automatic incremental bid” where the bidder enters the bidder’s maximum amount but only bids up to the next nearest amount. This keeps a bidder from having to re-bid after another bidder submits bids. The bidding platform gives priority to Auto | Max bids. For example, if Bidder "A" has entered a max bid of $50,000 and Bidder "B" enters a single bid of $50,000, Bidder "A's" Max bid in the event of a tie will prevail. The system will only bid for you up to the next increment. You may wish to consider utilizing an Auto | Max bid.
(ii)Soft Close:
If a bid is received within the final 5 minutes of a property closing, the auction will automatically extend for another 5 minutes and will continue to do so until all bidding within a given 5-minute period ceases.This is the online version of a live auctioneer’s “Going Once, Going Twice…”
