The bidding column is perhaps the most important part of our auction platform. There you will find information about the lot's expiry date, the current bid and you can make your own bid. Time to explore.
The essentials: bidding on whisky
Fifty dollar bid, now sixty, now sixty, will ya' give me sixty?
In an online auction, things are slightly different, but basically it is similar. Someone places a bid and if someone else wants the same bottle, they will have to place a higher bid. The new bid is checked, and if it is valid, placed.
The bidcolumn is part of te detail view of each lot. Here we have placed all the useful and necessary tools that you will need to make a good bid:
-
Current highest bid
-
Information on a possible reserve price
-
Bid status, if you have bid
-
Countdown timer to the end of the auction
-
Option to place a bid directly or as an autobid
-
Bid history
For extra convenience, you can also bid on your favourite lots or on the lots you have already placed a bid on directly from your dashboard.
This is the bid column that you will find in the details view of a lot. This panel contains everything you need to place a good bid.
