During the ascending auction it is not possible to place a bid lower than the starting bid. In case of an auction that consists of an ascending and descending phase, the descending phase will follow the ascending phase. During the descending auction the highest bid from the ascending phase is added to the bid in the descending phase.
When no bids have been placed in the ascending auction, the amount is € 0,-. The counter in the descending auction will count down to € 0,-. In this instance it is possible to place a bid (in the descending auction) lower than the starting bid.
Please note! This is only possible in the descending auctions when no bid has been placed in the ascending auction.
Can I place a bid lower than the starting bid?
