The Obay is a real-time auction house.
Here you can buy almost everything you want and sell almost everything you own.
That includes donation codes, accommodations and entire casinos!
Everytime you're outbid or someone bids on an item you're selling your inbox receives a notification.
The Obay's interface is divided into 3 major sections:
Overview, Auctions, and Add Listing.
| -insert image of overview here- |

- Follow up on auctions you're participating
- Retake your position as highest bidder
- Check your selling items
| -Insert Listings Img- |
On the Auctions page gangsters can:
- View, bid or instantly buy (if buy it now price is defined) any listed item
- Filter items per type (multiple filters allowed simultaneously)
- Sort the items

On the Add New item page gangsters can:
- Put items for sale.
Note: At the moment items like Witness Statements and Casinos cannot be sold through auction.
About Selling
Note that when listing multiple items simultaneously a 10 second extra ending time will be added.
When you die with open listings, the auction will close and buyers get their money back.
About Bidding
You can bid any item at any time, but note that you can only bid between 5% and 15% of the last bid.
Auctions are extended an extra minute if there’s a new bid on the last 10 minutes.
Also, make sure you're bidding for an item you're available to own.
If not, the seller will retain the item and still pocket your money.
Example1: You can only own one casino at a time. So if you win the auction for a second one, you'll just be stripped off your money and remain the owner of a single casino.
Example2: Despite already owning one, you go and bid for multiple Lee bodyguards. You can out bid everyone but your old Lee will only be replaced by a new higher-level Lee. If not, you'll just your money and be stuck with the old Lee.
