Abstract

Online 'penny auction' sites allow bidders to win expensive items at a price that appears unbelievably cheap, however users are charged by the site for each bid that they place. Dr, Mark Griffiths, a Professor of Gambling Studies at Nottingham Trent University, examines how 'penny auction' sites operate, and whether they should be regulated by the Gambling Commission.
