How does the auction work?

For sellers:

  2. Set Starting Price: Sellers choose a starting price for the auction. This is the minimum amount they’re willing to accept.
  3. Set Auction Duration: Sellers decide how long the auction will run. Bidders have this time to place their bids.
  4. Watch the Bids Roll In: Once the auction starts, potential buyers will place bids on the item. As bids come in, the price goes up.
  5. Highest Bidder Wins: At the end of the auction period, the highest bidder wins the item. They’ll be notified and provided with instructions for payment and shipping.

For Buyers: Joining an auction is exciting and straightforward:

  1. Browse Auctions: Browse through the items listed for auction. Find something you like? Great!
  2. Place Your Bid: Click on the item you’re interested in and place your bid. Enter the amount you’re willing to pay. Keep an eye on the bids to make sure you’re ahead.
  3. Stay Engaged: As others bid, you can decide to increase your bid to stay on top. You’ll be notified if you’re outbid so you can decide if you want to bid again.
  4. Winning: If you have the highest bid when the auction ends, congratulations! You’ve won the item. Follow the provided instructions for payment and shipping.
