Items close at regular step intervals.
To prevent a bidder from 'sniping', all bids made at the last minute of the auction will force an item to stay open for an additional 2 minutes.
This will continue until all bidding has ceased.

STRATEGY
We recommend that ALL BIDDERS put in their maximum bid when placing a bid online. This does not mean you will have to pay the amount you bid; you only pay one bid more than the next highest bid, and only up to your maximum bid.
The software system will play out the bids as you would at a live auction and only use the funds required to beat out the under-bidder at the prescribed bid increment.

CATALOGUE ERRORS & OMISSIONS
