Description of the auction’s process

Example:
- Participant 1 confirms the starting price of $1500
- Participant 2 places a bid of $1600, which now becomes the current bid
- Participant 3 places a bid of $1625, which becomes the new current bid
- The process of bidding continues in this fashion till the auction ends.
Attention: the auction’s process involves an automatic prolongation of the auction’s running time for 30 minutes in case of placing a new bid 15 minutes before the auction ends.
