Acceptable Forum Auction Techniques - Page 2

Regarding item number 8 in my original post.

I would like to ad an addendum.

It is not always necessary to use a specific ending date. Another method that seems to work much better is ending the auction a certain amount of time after a final bid has been placed.

For example: Auction will end 48 hours after final bid has been placed.

If Bob places a bid on domain 1 on Tuesday at 8pm, and no bids are place between Bobs post and Thursday at 8pm - Bob wins.

If someone comes in on Wednesday at 1am and places a bid, the auction is extended another 48 hours and so on.

In my experience, this draws more bidders because it is simply more fair. It gives everyone an opportunity and snipers can be avoided.

Happy Bidding-
Jennifer
