Bid Closings are staggered, closing 3 minutes apart

• Bidding on lots will close every 3 minutes.
• Watch the countdown clock on each lot.
• If late bids (last minute) are received on a lot, an additional 3 minutes will be added to the countdown timer on that lot.
• Only after a 3-minute period with no additional bidding will the bidding for that horse close.

Learn about EXTENDED BIDDING

• A Soft Close is used - if a bid is placed during the last 3 minutes on time clock, the system will go into EXTENDED BIDDING, and an additional 3 minutes will be added to the clock to allow the under-bidder to respond. 
• Bidding will not close until a 3 minute period passes with no bids being placed.
• Watch the time clock below each horse's name to view the time available for bidding.

USE THE MAXIMUM BID FEATURE. It will keep you on top at the best price.

• Maximum Bid is the surest way to win the breedings that you are interested in at the lowest possible price. 
• Max Bid works for you by automatically bidding the next increment until another bidder bids more than your Max Bid.
• Remember, it only bids what it needs to bid to keep you on top!
• Just enter your maximum price when bidding.

The Max Bid feature is particularly useful when you are bidding on multiple breedings. Max Bid places a bid for you at the next increment above any bid up to your maximum.  

What happens when you come up against a Max Bid?

The Max Bid automatically, and immediately, bids the next increment higher than your bid.

When you place a bid that is surpassed by an existing max bid you will see this message “Bid accepted. However, another bidder has placed a higher bid.”

If your bid matches the top bid of a Max Bid, you will see this message, “Another bidders has bid this amount”.  The Max Bid was in prior to your bid so it is placed first.  Another bid will put you on top.

In either case, you can place another bid immediately.
