Step 1: Register and Login
First, please register on the site as a user.

To do so, click on the Register link and enter your email address and a password of your choice.
You will immediately receive an email with an activation link to the email address you entered.
Click this link to activate your access.
Now you can register by clicking on the register button in the upper right corner of the page.

The registration is necessary to register you as a user in the system and to be able to assign bids to you.
With your email and password you can log in to the system and change your personal data or view your bid status.
If you have forgotten your password, you can reset it by clicking on the link Forgot password.

Step 2: Fill in your profile
Fill out your profile completely.

Log in with your email address and password using the Log in link.
Navigate in the menu via 'My profile' to the menu item 'Profile data'.
Fill in all mandatory fields.
Finally click on 'Save'.
The auction house needs certain basic information, such as your address, in order to be able to invoice you for items that you have purchased.
Before you can participate in a live auction, this information must have been provided by you, otherwise the auction house will not be able to admit you to an auction.
You can adjust your profile information at any time if it changes.

Step 3: Accept auction conditions
Please accept the auction conditions of the auction house.

To do this, navigate to 'Live Auction' via the 'Auctions' menu.
Here you can see the auction conditions of the auction house in the paragraph 'Activation' via the field 'Auction conditions'.
Click 'Accept' under the auction terms to agree to them.
Each auction house has its own auction terms and conditions that each bidder must agree to before participating in an auction. These must be agreed to electronically before participating in a live auction.

Step 4: Request activation for the live auction
Now request activation of your user for the live auction in good time before the auction.
If the activation is requested only very shortly before the auction, it may be that the auction house can no longer process the activation request in time!

To do this, navigate via the menu 'Auctions' to 'Live Auction'.
Click here in the paragraph 'Unlock' on the field 'Request authorization'. The field will now turn yellow and your activation will be requested directly from the auction house.
As soon as the auction house grants an activation, you will be informed by email and can see via the menu under 'Auctions' and 'Live Auction' that the field is now highlighted in green.
Congratulations! You can now participate in the live auction as soon as the auction house has unlocked you.

Some auction houses allow any registered user to participate in all live auctions. However, most auction houses check each user before the auction and unlock him after the check if necessary.
It is checked whether the user has not paid invoices in the past or has otherwise attracted negative attention at the respective auction house.
