Bidding On An Item
Once you’ve found an item you like, bidding is simple. When viewing an item’s listing, you can place a bid by clicking the black “Bid Now” button on the right-hand side.
Additionally, some auctions will have a “Buy It Now” option. With this feature, you can buy the item immediately without having to bid. You will then be asked to confirm your intention to buy out the item before the order is confirmed. Buy It Now’s cannot be retracted after they have been submitted.
To place your bid, simply enter the amount you wish to bid (Example, 50.00). Currency symbols are not required as the bid will be placed in the auction’s currency.
Once completed, you will be asked to review your bid. You will also be able to view vital item details, such as the shipping conditions, BEFORE confirming your bid. To submit your bid, simply press the “Place Bid” button, show below.
Buy It Now
If the option is available, you can use “Buy It Now” to purchase the item immediately without having to place a bid. This option can be used at any time until a bid has been placed over any applicable reserve price.
The “Buy It Now” option will appear on the item details page. You will then be asked to confirm your intention to buy out the item before the order is confirmed. Buy It Now’s cannot be retracted once they have been submitted.

**Auction items are bid at will. Prices vary based on market and consignor requests. Prices may not align with QCA or QCS pricing standards. What does this mean? This option is for our customers to set their desired going price. We work hard at both QCA and QCS to have the best, most competitive prices. However, we still work with each consignor to place the item closest to market value and then bidders bid at their leisure. **
