How do I bid?
To bid on an item, make sure you’re logged into your account. Find the listing you're interested in. Click "Place Bid" and select your bid amount. You also have the option to set a maximum bid, which allows our system to automatically place bids on your behalf up to your max bid amount, to prevent you having to constantly monitor the auction. If you prefer to purchase the item immediately, look for listings with a "Buy It Now" option, which lets you secure the item and end the auction instantly.
What is buy it now?
A Buy It Now price is a set amount that the seller agrees to accept for the immediate purchase of the item. When a buyer agrees to pay this price, the auction ends immediately, and the payment process begins, securing the item for the buyer. This option is ideal for buyers who want to avoid the competitive bidding process and purchase the item outright.
What is the "maximum bid amount" ?
The maximum bid amount is the highest amount you're willing to pay for an item. When you place a maximum bid, our system will automatically bid on your behalf, increasing your bid incrementally to keep you in the lead, but never exceeding your set maximum. If your maximum bid is outbid, you have the option to set a new maximum bid to stay in the auction. This feature allows you to remain competitive without constantly monitoring the auction.
