Timed auctions

You may see that we will be having some timed auctions. Don’t worry we will still be having live broadcasts. We love too much to give them up.

How timed auctions work?

The first lot will finish at 10am.

Each lot ending is staggered by 30 seconds.
You will be able to see the clock count down on each item.

The exception to this rule is if a bid is place in the last few seconds.
If this happens the finishing time is extended by 5 minutes.
