What happends if there are active bids around auction end time? For how long does the auction gets extended. I tried logging to my BIDO account to place my proxy bid, but the system seems to be down. ----answer---- Auction extends to five minutes if bids are in last five minutes. We're still having technical issues, expected to be fixed for tomorrow's auction on time. Cheers Sahar Sahar,
