LEARNING ABOUT LIVE AUCTIONS
Bidding in a live auction involves learning some new
terminology and techniques. You are no longer bidding
against other online bidders over a period of days, but
are bidding online in a real-time auction, conducted on
the floor of an actual auction house:
??? Live auctions are organized into categories, or
themes, of the auctions being held,
such as Art, Jewelry & Timepieces,
Collectibles & Memorabilia, or Wine,
so that you can limit yourself to those
live auctions dealing with the items
you want.
