Hi all,

Anybody know if a ‘reverse auction’ version of webauction might be in the pipeline? If not, is it possible to adapt the current version in order to function as a reverse auction? (for instance: a user is looking for a product, lists it on the auction, and then potential providers compete to provide the lowest price)

Thanks, Dave

I see a check box on the config for the auction to turn on “reverse auction” I have not tried it however.

Yes… the new version has a reverse auction option.Ê Checking the box will cause the auction to work in reverse.

Finally getting around to integrating WebAuction into my site at www.PelletBase.com : will let you know how it goes.

Thanks Steve for implementing the reverse mode, much appreciated
