The lamps were sold at an auction. (or listed to be sold, maybe they're not sold yet)

@Anth22 It's unclear. It means that they are listed in an auction as items that can be bought. They may or may not be sold by the time someone says this.

@Anth22 An auction is a type of marketplace where people bid on items. You might bid $5, but then someone else bids $10. If you don't keep up with the price people are willing to pay, you won't win it. It's often used for artwork and things like that.
Ebay uses auction-type listings where people bid (unless they're Buy It Now types).

@Anth22 Yeah they were exhibited; they were part of the auction's manifest (the list of things to be sold).

@Anth22 Not usually, no. An auction is usually a special event where people all gather together and bid for items. There is an auctioneer who stands at the front and tries to drive the price up further and further.

@Anth22 "Put on auction" never means in a store, unless you're talking about eBay as if eBay is a store. It means always to be sold to the highest bidder at an event.

@EarleyGrave entonces la sentence que te escribí, solo es en la auction? y si fuera en una tienda, como seria?
- Inglês (EUA)
@Anth22 Yeah it's only an auction. If in a store, you'd say "It was put up to be sold in a store."

@EarleyGrave ocea como digo, los cigarros están en remate? ya sea para decirle al cliente que llega a comprar
- Inglês (EUA)
@Anth22 "The cigars are for sale." (at a fixed price, as in a store) or "The cigars are up for auction." (to be bid on, highest bidder can buy them)
