AUCTIONS

Bidding Rules
Bids are placed at the opening bid or the current bid whichever is higher. Bidders may also specify a maximum bid incrementally higher than the current bid. Off-increment bids will be lowered to the highest available incremental bid. Bids are accepted when they are higher than both the opening bid and and any previously placed maximum bid. Once accepted, bids are raised incrementally, when challenged, to the bidder's specified maximum. Whenever a bid is made that is equal to a previous bidder’s specified maximum, the new bid will not be accepted. Instead the previous bidder’s maximum becomes the current bid. Bidding closes automatically at the time posted for each lot, unless extended at the sole discretion of ibidmobile.net. ibidmobile.net reserves the right to reject any bid it deems erroneous or fraudulent. All bids are made in United States Dollars (USD) unless otherwise specified.

Outbid Notices
Outbid notices are sent automatically by text or email.

Winner Determination
The winning bid is the highest recorded bid at the time of auction closing. ibidmobile.net has the sole discretion to change the auction closing time without notice and to determine the winner.
