In the lottery auction, the service site designates a bidder to a group, draws a lottery for determining one group, and determines as an auction winner the highest price bidder among the group. In the multiple price auction, the bidder offers a multi-stepped price, and the service site determines as an auction winner the highest price bidder at the last step. In the hidden card auction, the service site allows a bidder to participate in the auction once more, and enables the bidder to hide the bidding price and open the price at the last step. In the discount auction, the service site discounts the winning price by a certain ratio. In the discount auction, the service site enables the bidders to chat with other bidders.
