Users accept that there may be latency in transmitting information. Auction Houses may receive bids with a certain delay and bids put forward by other Users may appear with latency. OneBid refuses any liability for bids that have been skipped due to having been registered too late at the Auction Houses.
Auction live webcast is in particular prone to lagging. Despite the fact that OneBid makes all best efforts to minimise the webcast delay, video streaming cannot be treated as means to assess the current state of the auction.
