Express Bids High Bid Online Auctions
To win in any of Express Bids High Bid online auctions, you will need to think of a value which come the end of the auction time period you think will be the Highest bid which no one else will have bid for the product in the auction you have selected to bid in. For Example, if you feel that come the end of the online auction period that the Highest bid which you feel no one else will bid for this product in the auction you have chosen, will be £250 then you bid £250. Once the auction time period ends, which is displayed via a timer in the auction alongside the product you are bidding on and your bid is the Highest bid you are the WINNER!
There is a set entry fee of £5 for each bid placed in our Express Bids High Bid auctions, which our bidders are responsible for paying for each bid placed on checkout. In the High Bid auction, there is also a set minimum bid value for the auction which must be placed, so all bids placed must be above this minimum bid value.
Remember: Just like our Low Bid online auctions, you will not be liable to pay the bid value which you bid in the auction, unless you are the successful bidder come the end of the auction period. All you pay upfront is your auction entry fee for each bid you place in the auction you have chosen to bid in, which is displayed under the Minimum Bid Value in each auction.
In this auction you can save yourself hundreds pounds, dollars or euro’s on the value you would have paid in a high street retail or on line store.
