Bidding for this auction uses proxy bidding.

Proxy bidding lets the system bid for you when you can't be at your computer to place the winning bid. All you have to do is enter the maximum you are willing to pay and the system will automatically use your maximum bid to bid against other bidders. The auction will use only as much of your maximum bid necessary to maintain your position as the high bidder. If your maximum bid is not reached you only have to pay what the highest bid amount is.

This site also uses LiveBID. What does liveBID mean?

In addition to an online auction, charities frequently conduct live galas and feature a live auction at the event. For the auction lots that are included in the online auction and the live auction, we note them with "LiveBID" in the lot description, and we close the online bidding the day of the live auction. We contact the highest bidders on those liveBID lots by phone to see if the bidders want us to continue bidding on their behalf at the live auction or use their maximum proxy bids.

In addition, a live gala may also include a silent auction. In these cases, Vonality bidders can bid online for silent auction items along with the guests at the event. These items remain open online until they close at the event. Winning bidders will be notified via email and an invoice created.
