The electronic trading system ranks the bids from the lowest to the highest, and the one who made the highest (closed) price offer has the right of last resort in each round. This gives him the highest chance of winning. The auction starts when at least two bidders have registered for the auction. However, in certain destinations, a lot can be bought by the only registered bidder at the price he offered. During three rounds that last three minutes each, participants compete for the lot and raise their bids. When the auction ends, all information about the participants is disclosed.
