Quantity of items per lot.  Read carefully the number in the quantity section of the lot.  Your bid is times the number in the quantity section.  For example, if quantity is listed as “1” and your bid is $10, it means $10 x 1 = $10 for the lot (this total bid is before the applied buyers’ premium of 15% and before the 4% credit card fee for credit cards users).  These fees will be added to your total when invoiced.  If the quantity is listed more than “1” for example, qty. of 2 and your bid is $10 it means $10 x 2 total bid for the lot would be $20, (this total bid is before the applied buyers’ premium of 15%, and before the 4% credit card fee for credit cards users).  These fees will be added to your total when invoiced.
