Search Brand/Store:
Searching by brand / store will be product / sub-categories as most of the vendors are specialized in one brand or multi-bands in a specific trade activates.

Each product page shows the vendor’s name as well as the location of the merchandise. This is very important to you as a buyer, since you are responsible for shipment and you may request for shipping quotation or, pick the merchandise yourself. Shipment cost is a factor of your final cost of bidding and you will need to keep an eye on “location” search.

You can place your bid by entering your maximum bid amount in the box on any auction page. Once you click “Place Bid,” we will ask you to provideor selectyour shipping address. In addition, if no credit card is found on thefile, we’ll require one to be provided at this time. Upon selection, the system will display a confirmation screen of your desired bids, allowing you to verify your information before you “Confirm Bid”.

We require all participants to have complete updated register profile with payment method and shipping address to conclude the bidding process. This insures equal and fair chances to all possible bidders. By doing so, we improvethe bid’s process and success rate for all parties including our suppliers.

You can use “Proxy Bidding” to automatically bid on your behalf. To use this feature, enter your maximum bid amount (highest bid you are willing to pay) into the bid box on the auction page. The system will record your maximum bid amount and place a bid at the current lowest minimum bid.
If another bidder outbids your lowest minimum bid, the system will automatically place another bid putting you back as the current winning bidder. The proxy bidding system will continue to make the lowest minimum bids on your behalf until you are the winner of the auction or until another bidder bids higher than your maximum bid. Proxy bids are completely private and are never displayed to other bidders.

“Buy Now” is a feature that allows you to instantly purchase an auction for a fixed price rather than placing a bid. This feature is only available for certain sealed bid and regular auctions.
If an auction is eligible for a fixed price, you will see the required fixed price listed. Please note that by clicking on the “Buy Now” button and confirming your purchase on the following pages, you will have won the auction and are required to complete payment immediately.

A bid only goes through once you see a confirmation acknowledgment. If this confirmation does not appear, your bid is not valid and was not accepted. If you do not see a confirmation, you will need to refresh your page and revisit the bidding page. Alternatively, you may call our Help & Support team immediately for help.

You will receive an email indicating in that another bidder has outbid your highest bid amount. If the auction is still open, you will have a chance to place a new bid by going back to the auction page or by logging into My Account.

You can monitor the status of your bids by going to the My Account page. There you’ll see auctions you’re actively bidding on, watching and those you’ve won.

If you’re the highest bidder at the end of an auction you will receive an email with payment instructions. Once we receive and process your payment, we will notify the seller and instruct them to prepare the merchandise for pick up and/or delivery to the shipping address on file.

Your bid is a binding contract. Once the bid has been placed, it cannot be cancelled or retracted. If you are the winner and unable to complete the transaction, please contact us through the Help & Support section as soon as possible to determine your options.

When a bid is submitted within the final 5 minutes of an auction, the auctions extend its closing time by an additional 2-5 minutes in order to prevent “Auction Sniping “- the practice of placing a bid just as an auction is about to close. The auction will be extended as many times as necessary until there are no bids placed in the last minute. The automatic auction extension benefits buyers because it gives you more time to respond with a new bid, rather than losing the merchandise to a sniper.

Quantity variance is the percentage of items that are deemed to be either in excess of, or less than the amount listed on the auction; ranging about2% per auction. For example: the lot you are viewing has100 items with a 2% quantity variance. You should expect to receive between 98 and 102 items.

Unlike a standard auction, a sealed bid auction does not allow buyers to view the bid history, or the minimum bid required to win the auction. Therefore, to place a competitive bid, buyers should indicate the highest amount they are willing to pay for that auction. The winning bidder is the one who submits the highest bid, so long as it meets the confidential minimum amount set by the seller. This winner will receive an email notification of the auction close time with instructions for completing payment.
