How do I bid on an item?

Once you find an item you want to bid on, enter the highest amount you're willing to pay for it. The site will automatically bid on your behalf, up to your maximum bid. If someone else bids higher than you, the site will notify you so you can choose whether to increase your bid or let the item go to the other bidder.

 

Can a Vendors update their listed auction lot product?

After you have created a listing, you can manage it in three ways. These include:

  1. Updating auction lot product information: Vendors can easily update the lot details such as title, description, price, and images to provide accurate and up-to-date information.
  2. Editing listing duration: Vendors can modify the duration of their listing if they want to extend the bidding period. This allows them to optimize the auction duration and maximize potential buyer participation.
  3. Adjusting reserve price: If a Vendor has set a reserve price for their product, they can choose to adjust it during the auction. This helps Vendors better gauge demand and ensure they receive bids that meet their expectations.
