Please note that there are certain limitations to this system. 1. Technical problems may prevent Internet bids from being entered or may interrupt the live bidding process. When this happens, the system may incorrectly clerk a winning bid to an Internet bidder. The auctioneer is the sole determinant of the winning bidder. 2. Random bidding patterns may result in a floor bidder being awarded an item at an amount that matches an Internet bidder's previously entered maximum bid price. In this instance, there is no mechanism for settling this issue based on which bid was entered first. Liveauctioneers does not reveal bid amounts, it only relays bids one increment at a time up to the maximum proxy bid amount which could, due to the back and forth of auction bidding, match the last bid entered by a floor bidder. We utilize live audio and video for complete transparency and maximum communication which, hopefully, serves to minimize misunderstandings
