  • You do not have to take the next available bid amount. You may bid as high as you like with the designated bid increase increments. You can also set a max bid amount. This will allow others to bid and you will keep out biding them by the increments provided until it reaches your MAX bid!

  • Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES is an individual allowed to block, deter or use any influence on another individual bidder to stop them from revising or placing a bid on an item. It is the sole discretion of an Auction Chairperson to determine if this has occurred.

The offending individual(s) will no longer be allowed to bid on that item.
