Online Bidding Explained

Each week, thousands of Texas residents shop our online auctions for the things they want and need. Online auctions provide a convenient, exciting, and affordable way to purchase a variety of home goods, appliances, electronics, toys, and more. Bidding takes place entirely online, allowing bidders to participate when and where it’s most convenient to them.

If you’ve ever wondered how online auctions work, you’re not alone. Many people are unfamiliar with bidding online. Unfortunately, these people are missing out. Participants in online auctions often get name brand items at deeply discounted prices. Shopping through online auction is also more fun than visiting the store.

Registering To Bid

Before participating in online auctions, bidders must register with the online auction platform. Many online auction companies offer free registration.

Viewing Auctions

Online auction companies may offer auctions in several different locations. It’s important that bidders ensure they are able to pick-up their items after the auction closes. Search the auction website by location to view the auction details.

Placing Bids

Once you locate an item you’d like to bid on, you can choose to place a one-time bid or a maximum bid. Entering a maximum bid allows the platform to bid on your behalf. This is the most convenient way to bid in online auctions. It also helps ensure you do not overspend. Bidding amount increases by the bid increment listed on each auction. Winning bidders will not need to pay their highest bid amount unless bidding reaches that amount.

Paying For The Items You Win

Although auction platform terms may vary, typically full payment is due before receiving your items. Many online auction companies automatically charge the credit card provided at registration when bidders win the auction.

Picking-Up Your Items

Pick-up occurs at the location listed on each auction. Before bidding, make sure you will be available to pick-up during the load out times. Bring your invoice or payment confirmation with you to the pick-up location.

Final Thoughts

Online auctions allow shoppers to get what they need for less. Registration is easy and bidders pay nothing unless they win the auction.
