Often used in
conjunction with CatMaker Internet auction
catalogues, Pacts' commission bidding software
allows website users to send commission bids direct
to the auctioneers. We do not rely on email to
transmit the bids - it's too unreliable. Bids are
stored on the website and downloaded by the
auctioneers. In
case of any dispute the stored record is always
available.
On line commission
bidding should not be confused with live Internet
bidding. On line commission bidding is provided to
allow users to send their bids to the auctioneers in
the days, hours and minutes before selling starts. The auctioneers will always accept
On line
commission bids this way without charge to the bidder.
(Once selling has
started, bids can of course be sent using an
Internet live bidding platform but a charge of 3% or
more is usually then incurred).
Commission bids for live auctions can be made using
the auctioneer's website or by telephone, personal
contact, printed form, email or via Internet live
bidding.
Commission bids received from all sources are
processed by Pacts' commission bids module - if the
auctioneer has a computer terminal on the rostrum
then the top four commission bids will be displayed
as he sells each lot. Otherwise, commission bids are
printed on the auctioneer's sale book together with
bid, bidder number and whether the bidder wishes to utilise telephone bidding.
