Going, Going, Going, Gone! Auction News From www.iWannaTrade.com
The dictionary defines an auction as a public sale of items to the highest bidder. The word auction originates from the Latin word “autico” which means, to increase. Auctions are one of the oldest forms of buying and selling in the world and date as far back as 500 B.C. Auctions came to America with the Pilgrims in the 1600’s and during the mid 1990’s auctions became a popular way to buy and sell on the internet. An auction is a place where people place items to be sold via bids placed by others. The auction usually has a set amount of days that it will run or in some cases “true” auctions which continue as long as someone is bidding within a specified amount of time. iWannaTrade.com is a site that offers “true” online auctions.
Today auctions are a way of life and more popular than ever. Most everything you can think has been auctioned: automobiles, real estate, jewelry, clothing, baby items, arts and crafts, antiques and collectibles, household items, business equipment, and more. A lot of crazy and ridiculous items have also been auctioned: Elvis’s bottle of water, a smiling french fry, a piece of french toast that Justin Timberlake took a bite from, just to name a few. Can you believe that some of these actually sold! Auctions have become fun and entertaining for the public and these days you can particpate in an auction live in public or online from the comfort of your home.
