Due to technical reasons connected with the functioning of the Internet system, we
do not recommend waiting for the last moment to insert prices into the eAuction hall during the current round. This is because these submitted values might not arrive in time to the system server, for example, due to a slow Internet connection caused by the response from the web browser of the particular operational system. Bids in the final 5 seconds consequently might not be automatically accepted in the auction system.
