There are two main types of listings on yallabid: fixed price & auctions. Sellers may also include a buy-now price in auction listings.
Fixed Price
Purchase an item instantly at a fixed price. Clicking buy now and confirming will add the item to your invoice and will notify the seller that you have purchased the product. You can then click the checkout button which will take you to your invoice for payment
Auction
In an auction, the seller specifies the starting price and (optionally) the reserve price. Sellers can also opt to state their buy-now price in auction listings. This format is known as auction with fixed price. Read more about auctions with buy now.
Buyers place bids on the item and the buyer that has the highest bid when the auction closes wins the auction (providing the reserve is met, if specified).
YallaBid uses proxy bidding in auctions. Proxy bidding places a bid for the listing at the current increment needed and keeps the rest of the bid waiting in the case the user is outbid.
Before bidding or buying
Read the item description carefully and check warranties, guaranties and shipping fees. If anything is unclear to you, click on Ask a question link to request more details from the seller.
Always check the seller’s details and ratings from previous sales and purchases before making a purchase
