TITLE PAPERWORK:
AAA Auction/United Surplus Auctions are required by Arkansas State Law to complete ALL titles and paperwork with the appropriate Bidder information.
WE WILL NOT LEAVE TITLES AND PAPERWORK BLANK – NO EXCEPTIONS!
SOFT CLOSE:
All items are scheduled to close at a specific time. However, we use an AUTO EXTEND or a SOFT CLOSE feature on ALL our online bidding platforms. Therefore, bidding will remain OPEN on any item that receives a bid within a pre-determined time, prior to the scheduled closing time. Every time a bid is placed, a time extension will be added to the original closing time and to each extension closing time.
EXAMPLE…if the pre-determined extension time is set for “5” minutes and an item is scheduled to close at 1pm, and a bid is placed between 12:55pm and 1:00pm, the closing time will be extended by “5” minutes or 1:05pm. If a bid is placed within the next “5” minute interval, then bidding close time will extend another “5” minutes or 1:10pm, etc. When a “5” minute extension interval has passed without any bids, then the item will close and no more bids can be accepted. You may need to frequently, “manually refresh” your browser during the extensions to see all other bids placed and verify you are still the high bidder.
ANTI-SNIPING:
Some auction platforms allow and even encourage “sniping”.
definition of “SNIPING” is…
the act of bidding on an item, literally seconds before the auction ends. This prevents anyone from outbidding someone else and eliminates “true” auction bidding.
