How it works
The U.S. Embassy Bamako is selling surplus movable property (SMP) via a Web Based Electronic Auction. Each auction will be activated for a period of time clearly stating the start and end date. This information is available on the information panel of the web application. Usually it will be active from Monday to Friday lasting two weeks. During this period you can actively take part and submit your bid for the surplus property.
Maximum number of bids on one item is stated at each item. Increasing your bids is possible only in the local currency name. During the auction you should monitor your bids so you can react on all bids price development.
Email for winners will consist link to the auction application where you can review your items, after successful login.
Important Notice – Prohibition of Speculative Bidding
We would like to remind all participants that auctions organized by the U.S. Embassy are based on serious and binding bids. Any attempt to artificially inflate prices through speculative bidding, without a genuine intent to complete the purchase, disrupts the integrity of the process.
Accordingly, any participant who fails to honor a winning bid may be subject to corrective measures, including exclusion from future auctions.
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in ensuring a fair, transparent, and efficient auction process.
Thank you for your understanding.
The winning bidders are required to pay cash in CFA only at the U.S. Embassy in Bamako.
