The auction ended without a sale. [21] In January 2004, a seaworthy 16,000-ton Brazilian aircraft carrier Minas Gerais, formerly the British HMS Vengeance, was listed. The auction was removed when eBay determined that the vessel qualified as ordnance, even though all weapons systems had been removed. [22]
However, online auction sites, unlike live auctions, usually have an automatic bidding system which allows a bidder to enter their maximum acceptable bid. This is a hidden or proxy bid, known to the system, but not any other bidders; during the auction the actual bid is incremented only enough to beat the existing highest bid. For example, if ...
Auctiva is an eBay auction management system. It was founded in 1998. One of the original members of the eBay Developer Council, Auctiva has provided sellers and merchants with tools designed to help increase their sales volume on eBay. Jeff Schlicht, who founded Auctiva, wrote a program to automate the task of placing listings on eBay.
Proxy bidding is an implementation of an English second-price auction used on eBay, in which the winning bidder pays the price of the second-highest bid plus a defined increment. It differs from a Vickrey auction in that bids are not sealed; the "current highest bid" (defined as second-highest bid plus bid increment) is always displayed.

Hence, units of electric flux are, in the MKS system, newtons per coulomb times meters squared, or N m 2 /C. (Electric flux density is the electric flux per unit area, and is a measure of strength of the normal component of the electric field averaged over the area of integration. Its units are N/C, the same as the electric field in MKS units.)
Tungsten(VI) fluoride, also known as tungsten hexafluoride, is an inorganic compound with the formula W F 6.It is a toxic, corrosive, colorless gas, with a density of about 13 kg/m 3 (22 lb/cu yd) (roughly 11 times heavier than air).
In physics, specifically electromagnetism, the magnetic flux through a surface is the surface integral of the normal component of the magnetic field B over that surface. It is usually denoted Φ or Φ B. The SI unit of magnetic flux is the weber (Wb; in derived units, volt–seconds or V⋅s), and the CGS unit is the maxwell. [1]
