How can an English auction be the reverse of a Dutch auction if it ALSO starts high and reduces the price? I would think it was the Opposite - raising prices until there was a final bidder. The above explanation contradicts itself, right?

JellyBaker, the problem is that while it's implied, it isn't explained.

I knew the answer but 'Auctions held in the Netherlands' is also right?
