Auctions
What are Auctions?
Auctions are a selling format where the product is open for bidding. Interested buyers can bid their price for the product. At the end of the auction the highest bidder wins the auction. Auctions can be of the single quantity and also multiple quantity type. The available quantity will appear on the listing.

How do Multiple Quantity Auctions work?
In case of Multiple Quantity Auctions, a buyer specifies the amount he is willing to pay and the quantity he wishes to purchase.

At the end of the auction all winning bidders will pay the same price i.e. the lowest successful bid. Quantity in multiple items is not available with Auction Buy It Now format.

For Example: In a multiple quantity auction with 10 items if the highest bid is Rs.100 and the lowest bid is Rs.10, all the winners will pay Rs.10 for the product.

What are the benefits of auctions?
  • Bidders can specify their desired quantity and the lowest price they are willing to pay
  • Sellers can specify available quantity and start price
