If a bid is placed on a lot in the last 5 minutes before the lot's stated closing time, the closing time will extend to 5 minutes remaining. This means that if you are the highest bidder on a lot and your are outbid in the closing seconds you will always have up to 5 minutes to come back with another bid. BE AWARE that if the close time of a lot extends it DOES NOT extend the close time of subsequent lots. This means that if you are watching a lot where last minute bidding is extending its end time, later lots may well be closing whilst you are watching the 'current' lot.

If you are concerned about bidding on several lots where the close times are close together we recommend that you watch your bids in My Profile. You can monitor all active bids here and regularly refreshing the page will give you current updates on your bid status. If you are then outbid you can quickly click through to raise your bid and then return to your active bids in My Profile. If you regularly refresh the page you will always have up to 5 minutes to place bids.

Bids should be placed as numeric whole numbers only, with no currency symbols and no punctuation. So a bid of €1000 should be entered as 1000 not €1000 or 1,000 or 1000.00.

If this is your first time bidding, we strongly recommend that you don't leave your bids until the closing seconds but familiarize yourself with the bidding process earlier on. You can place a low bid early on to start you off or if you know what your limits are already you can place a maximum bid. With the time extension feature there is no real tactical advantage to holding off until the last minute as other bidders will always be given the opportunity to come back with a counter bid.

As with any auction a bid is legally binding at the time that the bid is submitted. You will always be given the chance to check and confirm your bid before it is submitted. For any queries please contact Rue Pinard.
