Users who participate in the auction and are awarded one or more lots will receive their deposit once they have collected the goods purchased, settled any costs for supplementary services, and completed the purchase of the goods acquired at auction by completing the administrative formalities required for the sale, and in all cases subject to prior authorization from the Principal.

Bids may be of two types, static or dynamic (proxy bid):
A simple static bid is considered a fixed-price bid.
A maximum dynamic bid (proxy bid) is considered a dynamic bid for the lot, not visible to other users.
When a registered user places a static bid, it may be outbid by another user. In this case, the user must place another static bid in order to be awarded the lot.
If a registered user places a maximum bid (proxy bid), it will remain valid until it is outbid by another user placing a bid higher than the established maximum bid. Increments will be automatic and based on the indicated minimum values, with a view to outbidding the other bids submitted up to the maximum amount entered.
Bids will be accepted until the end date and time indicated for the specific Auction. If bids are placed in the last 5 minutes, the bidding period will be extended by a period established in the Specific Conditions of each Auction.

Bids submitted will be considered irrevocable.
When a user submits a bid, it may be outbid by another user. In this case, the user must submit a new static bid to become the highest bidder and compete for the award of the lot.
 
7. Awarding of lots.
At the end of each auction, the provisional lot-award phase will begin. This phase will last a maximum of 48 business hours, unless otherwise provided in the Specific Conditions. During this phase, confirmation of the provisional award will be sent to the highest bidder. GOBID ESPAÑA SL reserves the right to interrupt or cancel the auction or the award of lots before the end of the auction, at its sole discretion.
 
The award is conditional upon receipt of the deposit (if applicable).

Bids submitted are binding and constitute a formal commitment to purchase.
 
 
8. Payment.
A registered user who is awarded one or more lots must comply with the Specific Conditions of the Auction, which will set out the payment and collection terms and the indemnity clauses applicable in the event of non-compliance. If payment of the amounts due is not completed within the specified terms, the sale will be deemed automatically concluded. The user will forfeit the deposit (if applicable), which will be retained as compensation, and the award will consequently be revoked, in agreement with the Principal. Any damage discovered after collection of the awarded lots will be entirely the buyer's responsibility.
