Successful Bidders
- At the close of a block, all items that have not had bids for the past two minutes will be closed. All other items in the block will close when they have had no activity for two minutes.
- The new format is more like a traditional live auction where the Auctioneer calls "going once, going twice, sold!"; only to be interrupted and extended by a new bid.
- The successful bidders will be notified by phone or e-mail.
