Some embodiments may provide a method and a system for receiving a first
limit price, associated with a bidder, on a first auction-format listing,
receiving a second limit price, associated with the bidder, on a second
auction-format listing, making a first determination as to whether a
first condition exists that prevents a first winning bid from being
placed on behalf of the bidder on the first auction-format listing, the
first winning bid being at least as favorable to the bidder as the first
limit price, and based on the first determination being in the
affirmative, selectively making a second determination as to whether a
second condition exists that prevents a second winning bid from being
placed on behalf of the bidder on the second auction-format listing, the
second winning bid being at least as favorable to the bidder as the
second limit price.
