An email will be sent out to remind registered users that the auction is about to begin.
3Step 3 - Placing your Bid
Members can enter a bid during the live auction under each bottle. Alternatively, you may enter your maximum bid on the lot page and WWA will increase your bid incrementally according to the table below. This does NOT mean your bid will jump to the maximum you set instantly, the software will bid the absolute minimum incremental amount, if bidding against another user, to secure the lot for you.
WWA also uses ‘anti-sniping’ software. This is essential in the interest of fairness and means that if a bid is placed on a lot in the last 15 minutes of a closing auction, that specific bottle type will be extended by a further 15 minutes. This process will continue until no more bids are placed within the 15 minutes. Closing time for our auctions are 8pm HKT. Any bids placed from 7:45 pm onwards will extend that bottle type.
To check your bids, simply go to your My Bids page and they will all be available. If you are outbid, we will send you an email. To win a lot, you must be the highest bidder on a lot when the auction ends and the reserve price must have been met or exceeded.
Our auction is unique in the way that we offer items in multiple countries, this provides a wider selection of world class whisky to bid on. Item location is listed on the Auction Grid view and also on the Lot page.
