HOW TO BID

First register and log in as above

Then select the item you wish to bid on - it must be live to proceed

Click on 'START BIDDING'

You will be asked to enter a valid credit/debit card

All bidders need to complete a bidding profile and add a valid credit card before bidding. We use this to confirm names and addresses and this helps us to eliminate time-wasters ensuring that all bidders are genuine and serious. €1.00 is put on hold on your card. This hold will be taken off within 7 working days. No charge will be made to your card.

We do not process or store any card information ourselves, all details are securely encrypted and sent directly to our credit partner Stripe for safe storage. No charges can be made against your card without your authorisation.

If you bid on and win an auction you can choose if you want to use this card to make the deposit payment.

 

CONFIRM YOUR BID

By clicking the ‘BID' or 'AUTOBID' button you agree to the following conditions

  • You agree to purchase if your bid meets or exceeds the reserve price.
  • If you win the auction, you agree to pay the seller €200 deposit at close of auction
  • You agree to pay the seller the full hammer price within 5 days of the auction ending.
  • Bids are legally binding and may not be retracted.
  • You are responsible for all shipping costs, including insurance and importation if applicable.

BIDDING INCREMENTS

 

€0-2500             €100
€2500-€5000     €200
€5000-10000     €250
€10000+            €500

 

AUTOBID

When the reserve price is higher than the max auto bid the system will treat the auto bid as a normal bid and post the total amount.

 

SNIPING

 

Our platform prevents sniping by automatically adding more time. Any bid received within the last two minutes will automatically trigger an extra two minutes to be added. After this point, only once there are no further bids within a two-minute window will the auction end.
