Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

An auction is defined as a public sale of properties that considers bids from prospective buyers.

The highest bidder eventually makes the purchase.

The auctioneer calls for bids and when there is an unchallenged bid he pounds the gavel to indicate the item has been sold.

The auctioneer is the seller himself of am agent representing him.

At the start of the auction the seller sets a minimum price before bidding commences
