List what you are hoarding
Five steps: photographs, what it is, what is wrong with it, what it should open at, and a look before it goes live. The clock starts when the listing publishes.
Step 1 of 5
Photographs
At least three of the lot itself.
Each photograph is re-encoded for the page; anything over 6 MB is refused.
No photographs yet — a lot needs 3 of them.
A lot cannot publish with fewer than 3 photographs.
What happens after you publish
- Your lot appears in the catalogue under the category you chose, and on your holder page.
- Bids arrive one at a time, each at least one increment over the last, up to a maximum nobody sees.
- A bid in the last minute pushes the deadline, so nobody can win in the dark.
- When the clock runs out the lot settles on its own the next time anyone looks at it — there is no scheduler here, and the lot page is what finalises it.
Publishing gives you one claim code, shown once. Keep it: it is how you prove the lot is yours if you lose the link.
