Can i change my email address?
You can not change your email address - it must be done by the auction site manager. If you cannot remember what email address you have registered under please contact the auction site manager and they will email you that information. If you need to change the email address send an email to the auction site manager. The email should contain your old email address and your new email address, along with your name and contact information so we can verify the account.

To start bidding and see the prices
You must register to become a user of the site to bid and to see the current bid prices. See "How Do I Register" to get yourself registered to bid. It is always better to register early in the auction so you are able to get in a bid when you want.

Bid Price
Note that the bid price is the per embryo price in euro’s. if a lot has four embryos and the price is € 500 / embryo that means the lot price is € 2.000 (euro’s)

Placing your bid - what is proxy bidding?
Once you have registered and have access to bid you may begin bidding on the genetics that are of interest to you. From the home page click on the Blue button to "view current lots". As you go down the lots and you want more information click on the blue button "details", this will take you to the individual information page for the lot. This page gives you the time left in the sale, the current bid price and allows you to bid.
There is a box for bidding. You can either place a bid to surpass the current bid or you can enter the maximum bid you are willing to pay.
If you enter your maximum bid the auction system will increase your bid to the next lowest price when another user bids on the same item using a system known as Proxy Bidding. This proxy bidding process continues until your maximum bid amount is reached or the auction ends. Only you and the auction system know your maximum bid, other bidders nor the sale organizers have access to this information. Again, the Eurogenes auction system will use only as much of your maximum bid as is necessary to maintain your position as high bidder. If you are outbid by another bidder the system will send you an email to notify you that you have been out bid.
Once you have bid you can follow your bid lots under "My Bids" when you sign in.

Popcorn bidding system
The Eurogenes Auction site uses a system called Popcorn Bidding. It means that when the lot is about to close and everyone is waiting to make the last bid you will not lose out. When the lot approaches the last minute of the sale and someone bids the sale is automatically extended for a predetermined length of time allowing all interested parties to bid again. This will continue to recur until no one bids during that time period. This gives everyone a fair chance to bid on the lot they are interested in.
