Again, placing a bid serves as a binding contract, and you will be obligated to pay the full maximum bid if that price is reached during the bidding process. Do not bid on two of the same item at the same time. If you win both bids, you will be obligated to pay both. Unless you want two of the same item, you should only bid on one listing for a particular item and wait for the auction to end before trying a new listing for the same item. Raise your maximum bid, if desired. If you decide to pay a little more for an item, you can raise your maximum bid by simply placing another bid at a higher amount.
Know the limits on retracting bids. If you accidentally entered the wrong amount, you can reenter the correct amount immediately to fix the error. If the item's description changed significantly after your bid was placed and you cannot reach the seller, you may also retract your bid then.
Review and confirm your bid. Verify that the maximum bid amount is correct and click on the "Confirm Bid" button to approve it. Part 2. Access eBay's mobile webpage using your smart phone. The only difference is that mobile versions of eBay are visually formatted in a way that makes them more accessible on a mobile device. Alternatively, access eBay by downloading a mobile app.
You can download a free mobile app for eBay for all major smart phone brands. The appearance of eBay may look different through the app than it does when accessed via the website, but you can still use the app to search and bid on items as usual. Search for the right item. If using the mobile website, type a description of the item into the search bar on the homepage as usual, pressing the magnifying glass icon to initiate the search.
Select "Browse Categories," located beneath the search bar on the home screen, if you do not have a specific item you are searching for and would like to look through the product categories. If using a mobile app, the same basic technique still applies. The search bar will be positioned toward the top of the app's initial start-up screen, usually in the upper right corner or the upper center depending on the version of the app you have.
The "Browse Categories" option is also listed on the initial screen but is usually positioned somewhere beneath your saved searches or favorites. Look over the details of the item. Make sure you have a thorough understanding of the product description, price, and condition.
Since bids on eBay are considered binding contracts, it is vital that you understand exactly what you are bidding on before you place your bid. Look at the seller's rating. A trustworthy seller will have a rating somewhere around 94 percent or higher. A seller with more ratings is also more popular and more reliable than one with few. Select "Place Bid. This starts the bidding process. Sign in or create an account.
If you are using a mobile app, you will likely already be signed in. If you are merely using the mobile version of the website through the phone's Internet browser, you may or may not be signed in at this point.
Choose your maximum bid. Touch the bid box with your finger to highlight it and use the on-screen keyboard to type in the number. Your maximum bid is the absolute highest amount of money you are willing to pay. Select "Continue" after you finish typing.
Your bid will start off at the lowest amount possible. Due to eBay's incremental bidding system, your bid will continue to increase as other buyers place bids until your maximum amount has been reached. Only place bids you are willing to see through. A bid is a binding contract. As a result, you should only bid on items you absolutely want and your maximum bid amount should only be an amount that you are willing to pay. You can always raise your maximum bid, if desired, simply by placing another bid on the item at a higher amount.
Don't plan on retracting your bid. The only time eBay will allow you to retract your bid is if you accidentally entered the wrong amount and reenter the correct amount immediately, or if the item's description has dramatically changed since your original bid was placed. Confirm your bid. Review the maximum bid amount once more to make sure that it is accurate and use your finger to press on the "Confirm Bid" option.
Expect notifications. If you use the mobile app version of eBay instead of the mobile website, you will be notified whenever someone outbids you. Part 3. Choose a maximum bid amount with extra cents included. Most sellers bid in whole dollar amounts. Day 4. Jill is now the high bidder and eBay is bidding automatically on her behalf. Day 5. The auction ends after exactly five days. That's how much she sends Sam via PayPal , and she happily receives her clock radio several days later.
In the example above, two bidders Jill on two occasions and Ted on one occasion experienced the frustration of being instantly outbid by the high bidder because eBay was automatically bidding on their behalf.
Automatic bidding sounds simple and great. If there's an item you want to be sure to win, you can place a single very high bid to be sure that you win without having to monitor the auction for days, yet at the same time you can rest easy knowing that you'll never pay more than you absolutely had to in order to win the auction. The complications and confusion arise for three reasons:. An increasing percentage of eBay bidders use third-party tools sites to schedule their maximum bids to be placed automatically just moments before auctions end.
This additional level of "automatic bidding" is called sniping. Sniping tools aren't a part of eBay itself; they're third-party tools for placing carefully-timed automatic bids. Often, heavily "sniped" auctions see meteoric rises in the last few moments of an auction, something that can seem nefarious and unfair to new eBay users.
Sniping isn't against eBay policy, but there are both benefits and disadvantages for the bidders that use it. Because regular snipers swear by it and those that don't like it tend to feel the opposite, it can be a good idea to read about sniping and see comments from snipers, along with a discussion of their concerns.
At the end of the day, whether or not sniping makes sense as a bidding strategy for you depends on a combination of your own buying preferences, the kinds of items that you're most likely to bid on, and the amount of time that you have to dedicate to eBay bidding in comparison to the funds that you have available for your purchases.
The combination of automatic bidding, auction sniping, secret maximums, and a large portion of users that either don't know about automatic bidding or prefer to use one-click bidding means that eBay bidding is a mishmash of different strategies, expectations, and possibilities. It can take a certain amount of experience on eBay to really get a feel for how it all fits together, but in the meantime, beginners shouldn't hesitate to jump in and have fun.
