¿Cómo funciona QuiBids?

Bids cost just $0.40 and can be purchased in bid packs at the Bid Store or in the QBar. These bids are pre-paid and stored in the Bid Credit History section of My QuiBids. Each time you place a bid; it will be deducted from your remaining bids, and will increase the price of the auction by one cent. . No more than 20 seconds is added to the timer whenever a bid is placed. This allows another user the opportunity to bid if interested. It's just like the auctioneer shouting “Going once...Going twice...SOLD!” at a traditional auction.

Y también como una subasta tradicional, ganas siendo el último en oferta. Una vez que usted paga el precio de subasta final y gastos de envío, el artículo es suyo!

Here's the part that isn't like a traditional auction: If you don't win, you can't reclaim the bids you place. BUT, because we never want anyone to walk away with nothing, we offer a Buy Now feature on ALL of our auctions! When you use our Buy Now feature, we subtract the cash value of the bids you’ve placed (excluding voucher bids) from the value price of the item, and you pay the difference. It's just like buying the item at retail price! So at least you had a chance at getting it at a discount, eh?

Let's say you spend 30 bids trying to win a $30 valued product, but you don't win. Your 30 bids are worth $12 (30 x $0.40), so if you choose to use the Buy Now, you will only pay $18 more for the product. Please note that this offer applies to real bids only, and that voucher bids to do not apply to the Buy Now option.

It’s also important to note that (except for Voucher Bid and Limit Buster auctions) QuiBids auctions aren’t limited to single items. A QuiBids auction allows customers to pick from a list of comparably priced products, which you may finalize at checkout. Be sure to shop the complete list of available products for the one that’s just right for you.

¿Qué es comprar ahora?

With Buy Now, you can purchase any product at any time during the auction and up to 2 hours after the auction is over by clicking the Buy Now button on the auction page. The value of any Real Bids* placed in an auction will be applied to the value price*. Voucher Bids used in an auction will not count toward the Buy Now price. Buy Now purchases don't count toward your daily or 28-day win limit. Because taquí's no limit to the Buy Now feature, the auction will continue even if a user chooses to Buy Now.

You must bid at least once in an auction in order to use the Buy Now option. The Buy Now price will never fall below $0.00 because QuiBids prevents users from spending more in Real Bids than the item's value price. For example, you can't place $110 worth of Real Bids in an auction for an item with a $100 value price. On QuiBids, you will never pay more than the value price for a product you want. If a user chooses to Buy Now, they can pick from any of QuiBids' amazing products that are available in that particular auction.

Below is an example of how your discount for Buy Now is calculated.                                             

Value Price:                                                                    $100.00
Discount: Real Bids Placed x Bid Price:  100 x $0.40 =      $40.00
Buy Now Price: + Shipping/Taxes (if applicable)          $60.00 

El precio Buy Now se actualizará cada vez que ponga una oferta

*Real Bids son ofertas que se compraron en un paquete de Bid.
*El precio de valor es el precio de venta sugerido para ese artículo.

¿Cuál es la mejor manera de ganar una subasta?

Todos quieren saber cómo mejorar sus posibilidades de ganar una subasta en QuiBids. No hay una estrategia de ganancia garantizada, pero te ofrecemos algunos consejos para ayudarte a empezar:

Place your bid within the last 15 seconds
By placing a bid in the last few seconds, you know the time will reset and you'll become the highest bidder. If someone else bids, time will be added and you'll get another chance to bid.                                       

Bid on the cheapest products    
You can get some great deals on our most expensive items. However, these items also tend to generate the most competitive auctions.  Fewer bidders bid on cheaper items, meaning that you are much more likely to win.

Protect yourself with Bid-O-Matic
Bid-O-Matic is a powerful tool when using strategic limits. It can scare away the other bidders because they know that the Bid-O-Matic will always place bids to keep you on top. Your chances of winning are increased, and they know it- which may help you intimidate your competition.

Turn your opponents' Bid-O-Matics against each other
Some people set the Bid-O-Matic and forget about it. It is easy to win if your competition has stepped away from the computer with the assumption that their Bid-O-Matic will fully protect them. We’ve noticed that users tend to set the "Bid From" value of their Bid-O-Matic to a round number, so use this to your advantage. Wait for a round number and place a single bid after it on the off-chance that the Bid-O-Matic has reached its limit.

Watch other bidders

¿Cómo pronuncias QuiBids?

Esta es una pregunta mucho más común de lo que pensarías. QuiBids es pronunciado ('Kwi-Bids), como en Quick Bids.

QuiBids. Dilo en voz alta. "QuiBids". Bien. Ahora ve a contar a tus amigos sobre QuiBids y recibirás ofertas gratis si se registran y compran un paquete de Bid. Solo asegúrate de usar el enlace "Referir un Amigo" en la sección Mis QuiBids.

¿Cómo funciona el Bid-O-Matic?

Bid-O-Matic coloca automáticamente ofertas para usted de una manera más eficiente que otros sitios de subasta. Bid-O-Matic incluso te permite pedir si no estás conectado a nuestro sitio web! Usando Bid-O-Matic garantiza que su oferta se colocará en los últimos 20 segundos. Nunca tendrás que preocuparte por perder tu conexión a Internet o distraerte en los segundos finales porque Bid-O-Matic te pedirá mientras lo instruyas.

Bid-O-Matic's Protocol:  

• Bid-O-Matic ofertará cada vez que el temporizador cae por debajo de 20 segundos, aunque es hasta el Bid-O-Matic exactamente cuando colocará esa oferta.
• Bid-O-Matic se puede configurar con un mínimo de 3 ofertas y un máximo de 150 ofertas a la vez.
• Bid-O-Matic comenzará a pujar para usted tan pronto como haga clic en el botón "Activar", a menos que haya menos de 2 segundos restantes en el reloj de subasta.
• Bid-O-Matic puede desactivarse en cualquier momento durante la subasta. Tenga en cuenta que el número de desactivaciones se limitará a minimizar la carga del servidor.
• Si una subasta termina, todas las ofertas bid-O-Matic no utilizadas permanecerán en su cuenta.
• You can only set one Bid-O-Matic at a time por subasta.
• Bid-O-matics no se puede activar en subastas con menos de 2 segundos restantes en el reloj de subasta.

Cómo utilizar:

• In the Bid-O-Matic area on the right side of every auction page, simply enter the Bid From price (which is the price you want the Bid-O-Matic to start placing bids at) and the number of bids you're prepared for it to use. Then select 'Activate'.
• Siéntese, relájese y observe su Bid-O-Matic haga todo el trabajo para usted.

¿Qué pasa cuando dos o más Bid-O-Matics están listos para ofrecer en el mismo rango de precios?

• If taquí are two or more Bid-O-Matics bidding in the same auction, a bid will be placed sometime in the last 20 seconds just like if taquí was one Bid-O-Matic bidder. Only one bid from a Bid-O-Matic bidder will be placed at a time.
• The exact time that Bid-O-Matic bids varies – it can be anywaquí between 0 and 20 seconds. It's randomized to prevent other bidders from knowing if a Bid-O-Matic is in play.

*Tenga en cuenta que mientras la función Bid-O-Matic se ofrece en muchas de nuestras subastas, no se ofrece en todos ellos. Si no lo ves en la página de subastas, es posible que estés mirando una subasta donde Bid-O-Matic no está disponible.

¿Cuánto cuestan las ofertas?

Each bid costs $0.40, and they are available for purchase in Bid Packs aquí or through the QBar. QuiBids accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and PayPal.

¿Puede todo el mundo ser un ganador?

¡Sí! Incluso si no ganas la subasta, nunca tendrás que irte sin nada. Cualquier momento después de haber colocado su primera oferta en una subasta, puede optar por comprar el producto en un descuento utilizando la función Buy Now. Nunca tendrá que pagar más que el precio de valor para cualquier producto en QuiBids. Pero no todos ganarán la subasta en un gran descuento.
