'''Item Auctions''' are found in the '''Auctions''' tab of the [[Market|WAD Market]]. They support competitive bidding and an optional Buy Now price while preserving the exact item and its displayed attributes.

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Rule !! Current value
|-
| Access || At least '''2 reborns'''
|-
| Auction durations || '''12 hours''', '''24 hours''', '''2 days''' or '''3 days'''
|-
| Active auctions per character || Maximum '''10'''
|-
| Auction currencies || '''Gold Coins''' or '''Wad Coins'''
|-
| Creation commission || '''5 Wad Coins'''; if unavailable, '''50 Premium Points'''; if those are unavailable, '''50 Shop Points'''
|-
| Starting price range || Gold: '''100–100,000,000''' · Wad Coins: '''1–10,000'''
|}

The commission is charged in the order shown above. If you carry at least 5 Wad Coins, they are used before account points.

== Creating an auction ==

# Open the WAD Market and select '''Auctions'''.
# Choose an eligible item from your backpack or the current depot.
# Set the starting bid and optionally a higher '''Buy Now''' price.
# Select the currency and duration, then decide whether the seller name should be hidden.
# Review the commission and confirm.

An empty container may be auctioned, but a container holding items cannot. An auction can be cancelled only while it has '''no bids'''; the item then returns to the seller's inbox.

== Bidding ==

The first bid may equal the starting price. Every later bid must meet the current price plus the minimum increment.

{| class="wikitable sortable" style="width:100%;"
! Time remaining !! Gold Coin increment !! Wad Coin increment
|-
| More than 2 minutes || '''100''' || '''1'''
|-
| 2 minutes or less || The greater of '''1,000''' or '''5%''' of the current bid || The greater of '''3''' or '''5%''' of the current bid
|}

<div style="border-left:5px solid #d29922; padding:.7em 1em; margin:1em 0; background:#171b22;">'''Anti-snipe:''' a normal bid placed with less than 2 minutes remaining moves the end time to 2 minutes after that bid. This gives other players time to respond.</div>

You cannot bid on your own auction or place another bid while you are already the highest bidder. A normal bid cannot equal or exceed the Buy Now price; use the '''Buy Now''' action instead.

== Currency and refunds ==

* A bid reserves its full value immediately.
* Gold Coins are taken from the bank first and then from carried money if needed.
* When another player outbids you, your previous bid is returned immediately: Gold Coins to the bank, Wad Coins to the inbox.
* Buy Now ends the auction immediately at the displayed price.

== When the auction ends ==

{| class="wikitable" style="width:100%;"
! Result !! Item delivery !! Seller payment
|-
| No valid bid || Item returns to the seller's inbox || None
|-
| Winning bid or Buy Now || Item goes to the winner's inbox || Gold Coins go to the bank; Wad Coins go to the inbox
|}

The auction browser can search by item name, filter by currency, and show recent masked bid history. Selected high-tier equipment may also receive global ending-soon notices.
