We propose a novel methodology for nonparametric identification of first-price auction models with independent private values, which accommodates auction-specific unobserved heterogeneity and bidder asymmetries, based on recent results from the econometric literature on nonclassical measurement...

We propose a novel methodology for nonparametric identification of first-price auction models with independent private values, which allows for one-dimensional auction-specific unobserved heterogeneity, based on recent results from the econometric literature on nonclassical measurement error in...

In an auction market, the auctioneer exerts significant influence in choosing and administering a selling strategy. We make the case for viewing the auctioneer as a market maker, whose success depends on how well he manages externalities without jeopardizing the trust of the buyers and sellers....
