    Abstract: A descending price auction may be implemented by one or more computing devices including a counter module configured to generate a series of decreasing counter values, and a matching module configured to match a bidder and an item at least partly in response to a bid received by the computing device. The matching module matches the bidder and the item based at least partly on a particular counter value active when the bidder and item are matched. Additionally, the matching module removes the bidder and the item from the auction based at least partly on the matching.
