Access and Bidding The Auction Transaction process is as follows:
Each potential Buyer signs in to the Auction Platform.
The potential Buyer requests access to the Auction and accepts the specific Auction Transaction rules.
Seller approval grants access to selected potential Buyers.
Successful Buyers receive payment instructions via email at the Auction Transaction conclusion.
Auction Format All lots will undergo an initial bidding period of 36 hour(s). Following this, a 3-minute countdown clock initiates. Bidding continues on all lots, resetting the clock to 3 minutes after each bid. The auction concludes when no bids are received on any coffee within the countdown period.
Auction Pricing Lot pricing is denominated in USD dollars and cents per pound. Each lot opens with a minimum price of USD$ 10 per lb, with a minimum bidding increment of USD$ 0.10 per lb per pound.
Bids and Auto Bids Bidders can place bids manually or opt for an auto-bid, specifying a budget and minimum increment. The Auction Platform will automatically bid on behalf of the bidder by incrementing the current highest bid. Once accepted, auto-bids are binding; however, bidders can adjust or cancel auto-bid settings at any time.
