An example of the limits of the above exception is an online platform that offers for sale to consumers various items, such as vehicle parts, small machines, tools, electronics and furniture. Even though transactions may be concluded in the form of an auction in which the selling price of the goods is determined on the basis of bids made on top of a starting price, this would not qualify as a ‘public auction’. Thus, consumers would retain the right to withdraw a bid once made within the terms prescribed by the CRD.
