Review Of The “Sniper Rule”

In this version of the auction, there will be what is known as the “sniper rule”, to try and curb the rather frenetic and often needlessly aggressive bidding right before each auction closes. Here’s how this will work:

In the final five minutes of each auction cycle, the “sniper rule” will go into effect. At this point, biding will become restricted, and any bids placed will be drawn from each bidder’s pool of five snipe bids. These bids are non-refundable, regardless of that bid winning or losing the auction, so use them wisely.


Thank you all for sending in auction lots; just a quick reminder that registration for bidders will continue until further notice, if you still want to participate!

Be sure to come back for the first round of auctions starting at 0900UTC on Friday! (5am EST, 1100 CEST)
