Opened the floor to bids (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

auctioned

(Other definitions for auctioned that I've seen before include "Disposed of lots" , "Idea count (anag.)" , "Hammered away" , "Dealt with lots" , "Sold to the highest bidder" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
