What is an auction?

An auction is a special market that assigns goods to the highest bidders. In general, there are three main components to an auction:

• Bidders that demand a product
• Sellers supplying a product
• An auctioneer overseeing the market (usually for a fee)

A common auction site like eBay readily illustrates the role of each player:

• Consumers are the bidders and demand items
• Product listers are the sellers that offer products
• eBay acts as the auctioneer and charges a listing fee to sellers

As you might guess, the types of bidders, the types of sellers, and the precise auction rules can lead to vastly different outcomes. Some auctions are more favorable to bidders, some to sellers, and some to auctioneers. And different auctions afford different player strategies.
