LIVE CATALOGUE BIDDING

Bid live online as the auction lots close !

 

The Live Catalogue feature allows buyers to bid on lots directly as they close.

How does it work?

When the auction is 30mins from closing, a "Live Auction Catalogue" view will become available on the auction page. This is a special tile based view that becomes available when the first lot of an auction is within 30 minutes of closing. The tiles are "live" meaning that they are receiving real-time updates. The times counts down, new bids & bid amounts get updated, the bidder's status updates (winning/losing), all without any manual refreshing.

 

As the closing time of each lot is staggered by 10 seconds, buyers can bid in real time against eachother - just like they are attending a live traditional auction.
