Dutch Auction Bots (Bots)
Dutch Auction Bots // Botsjim flemingFeb 6, 1999, 3:19am
Dutch auctions apparently start at a high
price and the price is reduced little by little until a buyer grabs the item. A bot could be designed to change the price on an item that is on display while AVs stand around watching the price drop. The buyers could be tracked and the info shuttled off the the database back-end. Jim Fleming Unir Corporation fluxenFeb 7, 1999, 9:16pm
Oh... do you call that dutch auctions...
It's the kind of auction 'we' use at the dutch flower auctions. -- Dean-Christian Strik ("Fluxen") -- dean2 at bigfoot.com -- ICQ #11760568 "Real programmers like vending machine popcorn. Coders pop it in the microwave oven. Real programmers use the heat given off by the CPU. They can tell what job is running just by listening to the rate of popping."
