It might help to have the models for auction and user... also, I like to add the annotate gem which gives some header comments in all my models to show what fields etc are there. Very helpful info and references.
you already know that the validate needs to be validates... is this an active system or SUD? do you have a solid development database that is well populated to test/develop against? this link may help some: http://guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_validations.html#custom-methods other than that I'd have to see it in action to debug further.
