I think it would be good to create a system for automatically bids.

Reason:
eg: NT player from my country is on the transfer list, but "Auction Ends" is 4:25 AM.
Of course at that time I sleep.
If I want to buy this player, I have to offer more money, to be sure that I would buy it.
With this purchase, unnecessarily raise the price of players.

Proposal of solutions:
Add fields, automatic bid, which contains:
the maximum price you want to pay,
and how many minutes before the "Auction Ends" want a new offer (max. 3 min.).

The benefit of this option:
More realistic prices of players and teams better economy.

greeting,
BG Samuraj

+1 B. B. King I agree. If you really want a player just bid the same high price that you would set as your maximun anyway on some automated system and you have probably a better chance to get the player than with the automated bidding and only are missing out on the chance to get the player at a cheap price. If you want the cheap price then you need to put in the extra effort.

if we had bid agent please no smart ones, just make then like ebay(or at least the old ebay i know).

If you bid, the praise raise to the minimum price you can buy it, if someone new bid the dude with the higher price get it to the amount of the lower bid + X. But mixing systems up, and making automated bid wars, who occur through different timings would be annoying for me. And it is different for a human to bid against a maschine, who never forget to raise the price etc.

And here is the question, are bid wars fun or just annoying?

Depends, if you are the seller or one of the bidders. :D

Automated bidding was suggested a couple of times. I think the positive aspects of such a feature outweigh the negative, but we wont see it happen.
