Welcome to our FAQ page - Below are links and answers to the different information we get asked about a lot.

Can I Cancel A Bid?
We do not cancel bids ever.  Someone has been notified that they have been outbid by your bid already.  To remove the bid now makes them the winning bid and they may have bid on another lot or made other arrangements.  Regardless this is NEVER done and mostly to protect the integrity of the site.  We put a lot of value on the fact that our clients can be assured that our site is trustworthy.  Please do not ask, it will not be done.

Can An Item Be Purchased Direct That Is In The Auction
No.  Items would only be removed due to a posting issue/error.  We do not delete items from the auction after they are posted.  Close friends have asked for this - they are told to bid like everyone else. Again - integrity of the site, we do not play with the trust given to us by our clients.   

Proxy Bidding - Placing a Maximum Bid
Our platform uses proxy (automatic) method of bidding.  You can place a maximum bid for an item and the system will bid for you up to your maximum bid. plus a defined increment."

Examples of how proxy bidding works:

  • You put in the maximum amount you would bid up to.
  • If a lot does not have any bids and you enter $30 as your maximum then your bid would be $1.00.  If no one else bids then you will win the lot for $1.00.
  • If someone else bids $13.00, the system will bid for you automatically and increase your bid amount to $14.00.
  • If someone bids $31.00 or higher, this means you are outbid.  The system will not bid higher than your maximum bid of $30.00
  • When outbid the system will send you an email to notify you.
  • You can increase your maximum bid at anytime before the lot ends.
  • If someone bids the same amount, the first bidder for that amount will be the winner of the lot.
