In each auction, there is a tab which says "MY BIDS". Click on that bid and keep refreshing the page to know the status of each bids placed by you. There are three possible things that you can see against each bids placed by you.. Lowest and Unique, Valid and Invalid. Lowest and Unique means your bid is enjoying the winning position, however remember this can change if other participants bids the same value, hence keep a track of your bids at all times. Valid options means, your bid is still valid however  is not the lowest one. Invalid means, the bid is not valid anymore as other person may have quoted the same bid value and hence your bid is not more Unique. 

cssCan I know how other people are bidding in the auction?

Yes right below the place where you place the bid, you will see three options, Product description, My Bids and Other bids. The third option, other bid shows the number of bids placed by users, their time and date. However you will not be able to see the exact value quoted by others for security and transparency purposes. 

cssHow many credits are required to participate in Bids?

Each auction may have different number of credits required. You need to check the credits points required to place 1 bid on that particular items. This is visible on the individual products at the home page, or in the highlighted option at the time when you are placing the bid. If at all you are not able to see it, just refresh your page and it will show up. 

cssWhat is the "Buy Now" Options shown in some of the auctions?

Buy Now options is an option, where you can buy the products directly without worrying about the outcome of the bid. You can only buy, when you have atleast placed 5 random bids. This is to ensure that even if you buy the items directly you can still be able to win if your entered bids meet the criteria. 

cssDo I have to wait for auction to close in order to receive the item I selected under Buy Now options?

No, As soon as you select the buy now options, irrespective of the auctions closing time, our backend team will allocate customer service captain, who will immediately initiate the actions required for the shipment of the products. We will not wait for the delivery of the product until the closing time of the Auction. This is because, you have taken pains to purchase the product without worrying about the results of the Bid.
