If someone bids when an auction at Klaravik has less than three minutes left, the auction is extended by another three minutes. This is to give other bidders a chance to counterbid and not to shut out other bidders. This is established in online auctions and can be compared to the first and second principles of the hammer auction.

To place a bid, you need to be logged in to Klaravik.

An auto bid is a way for you to automatically participate in a bidding process. You enter an amount you are willing to pay for an item and then automatic bids are placed for you up to your maximum bid - but only if necessary. Your maximum bid is hidden from other bidders during the auction. Placed auto bids are indicated by an "A" after the placed bid in the bid history. You need to update a manual bid every time someone outbids you. Keep in mind that an auto bid in the same level as a later manual bid will always lead the auction - because it was placed first.

Yes, you can! It's an easy way to follow your favourite items and stay updated on when what you want to buy is available at auction.
