Yes... it's in the 'Free Software Add Ons' section of this site. I use it, but had to remove the code.... don't thank many others do.
2. it might have been my messing around, but there seems to be a bug that arises when I reload a page after bidding. It duplicates the entry in the previous bid list, and updates the bid counter.
3. during testing, my initial bid was rejected as being too small, even though it was exactly the starting price.
It's not that strong of code so it wouldn't be to hard to break it. I'll have to see if I can reproduce it.
I've also made several cosmetic changes, which can be seen here:
Looks nice... I do like the seconds counting down through, even through it doesn't really need it. I've gone back to the default design so to make it easier for site designers to work with.
4. I don't know if it really matters, but my auction product isn't showing a difference between price net and price gross.
This is in admin for some reason to calculate tax, but without knowing the finish auction price, how do you tax it! My tax is done at checkout according to the state it ships to... I know everyone may be different, so I left it in... thinking about removing it all and not doing tax calculations at the product creation side.
5. Where in the admin section do you view and change auction information? Like cancelling a bid, for example?
Auction manager... right now, theirs no way you can remove just one bid without editing the product and fixing the current price.... The database doesn't have a storage spot for it.... I was thinking the other day it would be nice to have the ability for admin to cancel one.... but would it be far to the other bidders! Do Overs!
