13. AUTO EXTEND FEATURE: Please note when bidding, there is an auto-extend feature on this online auction system. If someone bids in the last 1 minute immediately prior to the end of the auction on that item, the online auction system will automatically extend the bidding time for a 3 minute increment (and will continue to do so) until there is a 3 minute period (after the original closing time) where no one bids, then the auction on that item will close. This feature will leave the bidding open for any item that has received a bid within the last 3 minutes from the last recorded bid time, even if the ending time has been reached. This feature has been added to eliminate sniping and to make the online bidding process more fair and resemble a "live" auction. Keep in mid that seconds are not recorded with bid entries. A bid recorded at 5:30 and 40 seconds will have a recorded bid time of 5:30. Bid and refresh immediately and often.
