All the auctions on the Ans Azura platform are held online.

The online-only auctions start and end on their respective auction section and you can bid by accessing each auction and each lot you are interested in and place your bid. Bidding in online-only auctions starts at the established opening time of the auctions and closes at the established closing time, displayed at the top of the auction's respective page. If at the closing time of the online-only auction there are active Bidders on certain lots, those lots will remain active after the established closing time of the auction and the closing of those lots will happen after 2 minutes of inactivity on each lot. You may participate in our online-only auctions by placing a direct bid on the lots of your interest.

The live-streamed auctions start as online auctions on their respective auction section and are followed by a live stream, led by an auctioneer. When the auction moves to live stream, an Auction Room will become available. You will be able to access the Auction Room with a simple click on the designated Auction Room window, marked with “Enter the Auction Room”. Before the Auction Room opens you may place Absentee Bids or bid online from your account starting with the opening time of the auction. After the Auction Room opens you will be able to access the Auction Room with a simple click on the designated Auction Room window, marked with “Enter the Auction Room” and place bids in real time in the Auction Room.
