[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2776385, member: 56859"]You are correct to worry about that! You would indeed immediately bump up the bid to your initial max if you submitted another higher max separately to the auction house. You'll have to tune in to the live auction and be ready to continue bidding if the max you submitted through the live-bidder site is exceeded. I'm not clear on what you have and haven't done, but it sounds like you have not yet been approved for live bidding (you said they hadn't yet communicated your bidding limit). It sounds like you have not yet successfully submitted bids. I'd wait to hear from the auction house or if it is a "must have" coin, call them [B]right now[/B] to check on your bid or place your bid. Some of the European auction houses can be difficult to navigate. Rauch is one of them and their live online bidding platform is one of the worst. It is also difficult to do all of this in the 24 hours before an auction. It might be too late for this particular auction. Edited: oh, you probably aren't bidding on their auction that is taking place right now-- you're probably wanting to bid in their e-Live 23? There's time to sort it out since two days away :)[/QUOTE]
