Bid
efficiently with Proxy Bidding — here's how it works:
| • |
Your maximum bid is kept secret,
and it's not necessarily what you'll pay. eBay will
bid on your behalf (which is called proxy bidding) by steadily
increasing your bid by small increments until your maximum
is reached. |
| • |
Why? Because it means you
don't have to monitor the auction as it unfolds. You also
don't have to worry about being outbid at the very last
minute unless someone bids over your maximum dollar amount.

| • |
Choose your maximum carefully,
though, as you won't be able to reduce it
later. |
Your bid
is a contract
| • |
Only place a bid if you're serious about buying the
item; if you're the winning bidder, you will enter
into a legally binding contract to purchase the item from the
seller. | |
