NOTICE

On some occasions eBay Live bid software and or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction floor. Therefore it is highly recommended placing an absentee bid now to avoid disappointment. In some cases, the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Champion may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances.

Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, those bids are treated just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids.
