This auction utilizes STAGGERED and SOFT CLOSE features. With “Staggered Close” lots do not close all at the same time; one lot will close every 12 seconds in a mixed sequence. You can follow the clock to the right of each lot to know the exact scheduled closing time of any particular lot. “Soft Close” is when a bid is submitted and confirmed during the last 90 seconds before a lot is scheduled to close, if this happens the time will be extended on that lot by 90 seconds. This will continue until a full 90 seconds passes without a new bid on that lot.
BUYER'S PREMIUM: The Buyer's Premium Of 10% Will Be Added To Each Lot Purchased. Every bidder pays the same buyer's premium and should bid accordingly. For example, if you bid $100 on an item a $10 Buyer Premium would be added to your auction invoice for a total sum of $110.
