How is it treated:
PLet's take a simple example: a vehicle has a starting price of €1,000. Your maximum bid is €1,500. From the start of the auction of this vehicle, ie when it goes to the podium, the highest bid is yours in the amount of 1,100 €. If someone else bids €1,200, the system will automatically bid €1,300 for you. If the sale stops at this time, you are the successful bidder for €1,300. If the sale continues and the bids exceed €1,500, your maximum bid ceases to exist.
Commitment:
Any purchase offer after 1:00 p.m. on Saturday is considered a maximum bid and is binding on you !Maximum bids lower than the upset price defined by the Auctioneer will be ignored.
All maximum offers must be rounded off to the nearest hundred, otherwise they will be rounded off by the Auctioneer during the sale.
