What's new - week of August 24, 2026
By Ben|
Hi, it's Ben with your weekly update on what's new at GovAuctions.app. Here's what shipped this week, a couple of numbers, and the strangest thing I found up for auction.
What's new
New features
- Made several big changes to speed up the loading time for the feed
- Added several research articles on unsold lots, auctions near you etc.
- Made the save/share buttons more accessible on mobile
- Added information on lot sold prices to the watchlist once auctions have ended
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug where listings that do not publish bid numbers showed as zero bids
- Fixed a bug where shipping/transport information for listings was being overridden by boilerplate instructions
By the numbers
- 47,265 live US listings indexed right now, refreshed daily.
- 38,631 of them already have active bids.
Wacky listing of the week
My favorite find this week: a 140 Ton Air Cooled Chiller turned up on govdeals out of NC, with bidding around $4,000,000. See the listing.
That's it for this week. If you have any questions or suggestions, send me a message - I read every one. Thanks for reading, and happy bidding.
