Staggered Closing:

intervals. This feature works great with the auto-extend feature to closely emulate a ‘live’ auction.

The closing time of an item is automatically extended an additional 2 minutes whenever a bid is placed within the last 2

minutes of the item’s closing time. Thus, if an item is set to close at 6.:00 pm, and a bidder places a bid on the item at

6:02 pm, the item’s closing time will be extended to 6:04 pm. If another bid is placed at 6:05 pm, the item’s closing time

will be extended to 6:07 pm, and so on.
