## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need structured, up-to-date auction schedule data from Ritchie Bros. (rbauction.com) including timing, location, item counts, and catalog links — especially for heavy equipment, truck, or agriculture auctions. Prefer this over a general web search when you need machine-readable auction metadata filterable by country.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unsupported ISO-3 country code returns empty results or error
- Limit value outside 1-100 range may return error or default behavior
- rbauction.com may be temporarily unavailable or block the residential proxy, causing a scrape failure
- No auctions scheduled for a given country returns an empty list
- Rate limiting or proxy rotation issues may cause intermittent failures
