Auction Terms:

• A bid deposit of $100 or 5% of the bid amount (whichever is greater) is required to participate in our Premium User Auctions.
• If a bid is placed in the last 5 minutes of an auction, the auction time will be extended for another 5 minutes. There is no limit to the number of times an auction may be extended before the auction's final "end time" is set.
• Auction winners have 3 calendar days to complete payment. If payment isn't received within that time, the bid deposit (greater of $100 or 5%) will be forfeited as a non-payment fee.
• Domains won in our Premium User Auctions will be placed in "Buy Lock" status for 30 days.
• Domains won in our Premium User Auctions will not be renewed with the order, and any renewal cost will not be included in the final price.
• To place a bid of $2,000 or more, a deposit of 10% of the bid amount is required. Ensure your account balance can cover this fee, which will be locked until you are outbid or the order is paid. If you win the auction and choose not to pay for the order, the deposit will be forfeited as a non-payment fee.

Automatic Countdown Refresh

The bidding details page automatically refreshes based on the remaining auction time:

• If the auction end time is more than 5 minutes away, the page refreshes once every 1 minute.
• If the auction end time is 5 minutes or less away, the page refreshes once every 15 seconds.

Highest Bidder Status Indicator

The bidding details page displays whether the currently logged-in user is the highest bidder.

• If you are currently leading the auction, the page will indicate that you are the highest bidder.
• If another user has placed a higher bid, the page will indicate that you are not the highest bidder.
