Max Bids (Proxy Bidding)

Enter your maximum, then sit back and watch!

NB Auctions uses a helpful bidding system (called proxy bidding) to make bidding on auctions more convenient and less time-consuming for buyers.

Here's how it works:
  1. When you place a bid, you enter the maximum amount you'd be willing to pay for the item. Your maximum amount is kept confidential from other bidders and the seller.
  2. The NB Auctions system compares your bid to those of the other bidders.
  3. The system places bids on your behalf, using only as much of your bid as is necessary to maintain your high bid position. The system will bid up to your maximum amount.
  4. If another bidder has a higher maximum, you'll be outbid. BUT, if no other bidder has a higher maximum, you win the item. And you could pay significantly less than your maximum price!


This means you don't have to keep coming back to re-bid every time another bid is placed.
