**A silent auction is a variant of an English auction where bids are written on a sheet of paper. At the predetermined end of the auction the highest listed bidder wins the item. The auction is "silent" in that there is no auctioneer, the bidders writing their bids on a bidding sheet left on a table near the item.The highest bidder is the winner and pays the price he or she submitted.
