Abstract:
An online auction system comprises a host system. The host system comprises at least one processor capable of executing processor executable code, at least one non-transient memory capable of communicating with the at least one processor and storing processor executable code comprising a first rank associated with a first user and a second rank associated with a second user. The processor executable code when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to access the first rank and second rank, schedule a first auction having a first rank range and a second auction having a second rank range, and present the first auction having the first rank range to the first user and the second auction having the second rank range to the second user. The first rank of the first user falls within the first rank range and the second rank of the second user falls within the second rank range. A method for scheduling online auctions comprises accessing, by a host system comprising at least one processor, processor executable code stored on a non-transient memory. The processor executable code comprises a first rank associated with a first user and a second rank associated with a second user. The host system schedules, by the at least one processor, a first auction having a first rank range and a second auction having a second rank range. The host system presents the first auction having the first rank range to the first user and the second auction having the second rank range to the second user. The first rank of the first user is identified by the first rank range and the second rank of the second user is identified by the second rank range.
