An auction is a process of buying and selling goods or services by offering them up for bid, taking bids, and then selling the item to the highest bidder. In economic theory, an auction may refer to any mechanism or set of trading rules for exchange.

There are several variations on the basic auction form, including time limits, minimum or maximum limits on bid prices, and special rules for determining the winning bidder(s) and sale price(s). Participants in an auction may or may not know the identities or actions of other participants. Depending on the auction, bidders may participate in person or remotely through a variety of means, including telephone and the internet. The seller usually pays a commission to the auctioneer or auction company based on a percentage of the final sale price.

Who do you report a dodgy auctioneer to?
Q. I know an auctioneer who regully shills his auctions , buys his clients items at the lowest posiible price (by not giving other people chance to bid) and even stealing items from other people lots. Who do I report this to? would it be trading standards and would they visit his auction to see it going on? any help appreciated.

WoW add on like Auctioneer in the old style?
Q. I cannot deal with the revamped auctioneer and no matter how I mess with the settings, I can't get it the way I liked it. I'm looking for an add on that will show me the vendor prices of items, and compare my new auctions to what's out there for pricing.
