When an auction listing says that there are 10 of the item available do the first 10 highest bidders win and pay their respective bids?

So say there is a listing for a Bugatti Veyron (for example) and there are 10 available, if I'm the 10th lowest winning bidder at 10p do I get it for 10p even if the other 9 have bid £1 million?

Right - the experiment has been done.

The result was unexpected.

All winners pay the same amount - the amount of the lowest winning bid.

Worryingly that was me and my at my bid limit.

Still a bargain but irritatingly significantly more than a similar auction for a less spec'd machine which ended at the same time.

Mmmmmmmmmm Ebaytastic.
