It is permissible to work in an auction business and buy items there from, as done by Nabi (S.A.W.). (Al-Hidayah, Vol. 3, Page 67)

To risk money or property against another’s on the basis of the outcome of an unpredictable event such as a race or game or in the event where the loser pays the winner a certain sum of money, etc, are two forms of betting which take the ruling of gambling, and is therefore Haraam. Allah mentions: “O you who believe! Indeed, intoxicants, and gambling, and idols, and divination by arrows are sheer filth, from the handwork of the shaitaan, therefore abstain from it; perchance you prosper.” (Surah Al-Ma’edah, Verse 90)
