Low Bid Auction Bidding Tips

What is a 'lowest unique bid'?

A 'lowest unique bid' is the lowest bid placed, that no one else matches. For example:

Bid 1: £1.00

Bid 2: £1.00

Bid 3: £2.00

Bid 4: £2.00

Bid 5: £2.00

>> Bid 6: £3.00 <<

Bid 7: £5.00

Bid 8: £6.00

Bid 9: £6.00

In the above example, the winning bid is £3.00 because it is the lowest bid, which no one else has offered.

Use your skill to plan your bidding. Remember you are looking to offer a price as low as you would be willing to pay, but don’t forget your bid must be not the same as any other bid and it must be in whole pounds. You can't offer pennies.
Review the previous results for the item (or if it is on for the first time, take a view on similar items) and find out the average and median level at which this has sold before.
If you are only making one bid, make sure it is within that average price level. If you are making more than one bid, place the others near the top and bottom of the median range.
Don’t offer too much. Although you can win at above 5% of the worth value, this very rarely happens.
