Auction Format
Rapaport Melee and Single Stone Auctions are similar to silent auctions and tenders
with viewing over a specific period of time. All sealed bids must be placed by the
specified deadline to be counted for that auction. Once the auction closes, suppliers
have 1 business day to approve or reject the highest bids. Buyers are then invoiced
for all lots accepted.
