If another bid is received during that 'extended time,' the ending time is extended by five additional minutes for each extension. Extended bidding continues and repeats until no more bids are submitted. This 'Auto-Extend' feature ensures a fair bidding process for all bidders, allowing them to respond to any last-minute snipe bid(s). Items are Auto-extended ONLY if a bid is placed within 5 minutes of the scheduled closing time. MAX BIDS: Internet bidders who want to ensure their bids are acknowledged should use the maximum bid feature. When you bid your max, the current bid price does not automatically increase to your max bid. Instead, someone else's bid will increase the current price, and the computer will automatically bid to your maximum in the specified increments. REFRESH YOUR SCREEN: The screen should automatically update. However, refreshing your screen will reset the catalog, refresh the whole page, and eliminate closed lots.
