Bidding |
|
Every record in our auctions has a minimum bid in Euro noted by MB. We accept bids in US$ too. NMB means no minimum bid. Please note that there are no "reserves" or "buyer´s premium" in our auctions. Obviously, you may bid the minimum or more. I suggest to put the maximum amount you are willing to pay for each item. Highest bids will be lowered to 10% over the next highest bid. In most instances, if you have the winning bid, you will pay less than your maximum bid. With this bidding system, you only pay the lowest possible winning bid, not necessarily your maximum bid. Here is how it goes: |
|
|
-
Say you are interested in Lot #001 (MB EUR 100) and the top price you would pay is
EUR 250. If there are no other bidders, you will win that Lot #001 for
EUR 100. |
|
| - With the same example, if another bidder bids EUR 160, you will win this lot for EUR 176. | |
| - On the other hand, if another bidder bids EUR 240, you will win this lot for EUR 250 (your high bid). | |
| - Finally, if two bidders enter the same maximum bid for the same lot, earliest bid will prevail. | |
