How do I bid?
Bidding on CheaperThanDirt.com/FreeAds is easy. Just follow the steps below:
- First, register with CheaperThanDirt.com/FreeAds.
- After signing in to CheaperThanDirt.com/FreeAds, search or browse the various categories.
When you find something that you want, look for the bid box (titled "Bidding") on that item's auction page.
- Enter your bid: The amount you are willing to pay for the item.
- Click on "Review Bid."
- Once you've previewed your bid and confirmed that everything is in order, click on "Place Bid."
You'll get one of the following confirmation messages:
- High Bid confirmation: If your bid is the highest, you will be notified of this fact.
If you wish to cancel your bid, you must do so now from this preview page. Bids cannot
be retracted once confirmed.
- Outbid confirmation:
Another bidder might have placed a bid using automatic bidding, in which case an updated bid was placed on their behalf
and you were automatically outbid. If this does happen and you want to bid again, return to the auction page and enter a
higher amount.
This is the final step to submitting your bid.
- As you wait for the auction to close, you will receive
notifications if you have been outbid. You can always return to the auction and enter a higher bid.
- When the auction closes and you are the high bidder, you will get an email at the end of the auction.
Included in this email is the seller's email address. You must email the seller to arrange for payment and shipping of
the item.
Note About Reserve Price Auctions
On the Item page watch the label next to the
current price to see whether the reserve price has been met. Until you see that
the reserve price has been met, there have been no successful bids in the
auction. Once the reserve has been met, the item will sell to the highest bidder
when the auction closes.
