How does the auction operate, including rules and features?

Bidders interested in participating in auctions must first create an account and register for each auction they wish to join. The auction process is conducted on a lot-by-lot basis, where bidding on one lot will close before the next one begins. Only registered bidders are permitted to place bids, and the highest bid at the close of each lot will determine the purchaser of that specific coffee lot. It’s important to note that all auctions on the platform are live, and each bid submitted is final and irrevocable, meaning bids cannot be amended or corrected once submitted, even if done so in error and promptly reported to the seller.
