Proxy bidding agents on the Internet are called proxy auction, robo bid. An online auction means buying and selling products through the bidding process and then offering the products to the highest bidder on the Internet. There are several types of online auctions, with the English auction being the most common.
In this type of auction, a reserve price is set for the goods and customers offer an ever-increasing bid. Finally, the product is sold to the highest bidder. Different people offer different sale prices; bidding is complete once one person makes the highest bid and no one bids after that. After the hammer has been struck, no one can bid. In some cases, when the reserve price is not disclosed, the offer ends if no one is willing to bid more than the reserve price.
The traditional English auction method includes the use of a candle. In this method, the winning bid was the last one offered just before a candle went out. A Dutch auction is a method of sale where the price is reduced until a buyer is found. For example, the house was offered at a Dutch auction starting at $150,000. The auctioneer gradually reduced the price in increments of $5,000 until a bidder was found willing to pay $120,000. Therefore, the house sold for $120,000.
Private Auctions are auctions with special settings that hide the identity of all bidders. This means that people viewing your auction page cannot see any of the bidders on the item. Private auctions should be used when an item is highly collectible and to hide the identities of bidders on items that could be embarrassing if someone were to see your list of recent bids. A vickrey auction is a type of sealed bid auction, where bidders submit written bids without knowing the bid of the other people in the auction. The auction was created by William Vickery.
