How MLMauction™
Works
Here’s
how you start…
1. Sign up for FREE!
Just fill out our
simple registration form and submit. This is absolutely free, no hidden costs! As a
thank you, we credit twenty-five (25) Bonus (free to you) Bidz into your account when you complete your
registration!
Once you’ve registered, a confirmation email will be sent to the e-mail address you
provided. If you don’t immediately receive this e-mail from MLMauction™, we recommend that you check your Spam folder to ensure that it wasn’t mistakenly identified or
blocked. To avoid any possible mishaps, we recommend you add us to your safe senders list. Once
you’ve confirmed your account, you’re free to use your Bonus Bidz and buy Bidz and participate in our
auctions!
2. Buy your Bid Pack
Different Bid Packs are available for purchase according to
your budget and comfort level. Just be sure to be realistic. The most common mistake of beginners is to
set unrealistic goals. It is very unlikely for a beginner to win a MacBook Pro on their first auction using
the cheapest Bid Pack.
Remember, you may be playing against seasoned Penny Auction veterans. Select a Bid Pack
that is suitable for the type of item(s) you want to Bid on.
3. Select your Auction(s)
Step
1:
Open the Auction(s) you are interested in, by
clicking on the item image.
Step 2:
Add the item(s) to your watch-list to track the
start times and details for each auction you
&nbs
p; plan on bidding on.

MLMauction™ offers an extensive choice of products to Bid on, or to buy. All of our products are brand new and
covered by the original manufacturer's warranty.
Auction Types
A Seat
Auction differs from a regular Penny Auction. In order to participate in a Seat Auction, Users must first
purchase a seat. A Seat Auction is limited to a set number of participants, and the auction does not start
until the minimum seat purchase requirements have been met. When all of the seats are filled the auction will
start automatically. Once the seat auction goes live, Bidz are totally free of charge, so participants can
place unlimited Bidz until the Timer reaches zero. At the end of the auction, the "Winner" will pay
the final price of the auction.
If they are not already members you can "Invite a friend" from the "My
Account" menu and receive 5 Bonus Bidz for doing so.
Take your seat and play to win BIG! If all seats are not taken by
the auction end time, the Bidz that you used to purchase your seat will be automatically credited back to your
account.
PREMIER
AUCTIONS:
Premier Auctions are
for High-end items. To Bid on a Premier Auction, Users must purchase a Premier Bid Pack that
contains bids at a premium fee appropriate for the items offered. These auctions work the same as a Standard
Penny Auction, but the Bidz cost a bit more, and the items are premium items.
SPEED AUCTIONS:
Speed Auctions are auctions that run for a shorter duration with the timer.
A typical Speed Auction shortens the countdown time for bidding incrementally. Instead of the typical twenty
(20) seconds which a bidder had to place a bid, the countdown timer will gradually be shortened to 15 seconds, 10
seconds, etc. to speed up the auction and create more excitement for the participants. At the auction end,
the extended time will only reset to 10 seconds, encouraging a fast paced, exciting auction experience.
STANDARD
PENNY AUCTIONS:
A Penny Auction, is a type of all-pay auction in which all participants must pay a
non-refundable fee to place a small incremental Bid. When time expires, the last participant to have placed a
Bid wins the item and also pays the final Bid price, which is typically significantly lower than the retail price
of the item. These are regular Penny Auctions.
4. Start Bidding to WIN!
Each winner has to pay the final price that was reached for the
auction, which can be up to 99% less than the retail price. This amount is paid, as well as the shipping
costs and sales tax, if applicable.
5. Win or “Buy Now” and finalize your
product!
If you're the last Bidder when the Timer on the auction
you’re participating in reaches zero, congratulations, you win the item you were bidding on! If
that’s not the case, then you can always use the “Buy Now” button. Using this
feature, you can purchase any product at any time during an auction and for up to two hours after the auction is over by applying a calculated percentage of any Bidz
you have already used in an auction toward the product’s listed price.
No Risk
Bidding!
&nbs
p;  
;
&
nbsp; &n
bsp;
We
encourage our Users to use a "No Risk Bidding" strategy. What we mean by this, is
for you to Bid only on items that you are willing to purchase if you do not win that item in the
auction. Because a portion of your Bidz are credited towards the final purchase price, if you use the
"Buy Now" option when you do not win, you lessen your risk of losing money and you will have a
better chance of actually winning and saving BIG!!
Also, look for the “Special Offers” in our eShopz. These
products are discounted below the retail pricing. Bidding on these auctions is another way to reduce your
risk. Similar to a Standard Auction, when you win, you get that item at up to a 99% discount.
However, if you don’t win and you use the "Buy Now" option, not only do you get credit
for a portion of the Bidz you placed, but you can then buy the item for far less than the retail price... So
either way you are a WINNER!!
Shopping in eShopz is yet another way that MLMauction™ strives to bring big savings to you! Remember, it is not necessary to Bid on these auctions in
order to take advantage of the savings because you have the option to "Buy Now" at any
time!
Buying Bidz
Buying Bidz is Simple!!!
You may purchase Bidz
immediately after registration. We have several different Bid Packs from which you may choose. Once
you’ve selected the proper sized Bid Pack for you, simply add your payment information. From here,
you’re almost ready to join your first auction!
Remember, when purchasing Bidz, you are really buying the right to place Bidz, and each
Bid is worth between $0.50 and $1.00. Purchasing Bidz does not guarantee you’ll win, but the
“Buy Now” feature is always available to you and it’s basically like spending money toward
the desired product.
How Much Do Bidz Cost?
Depending on the amount purchased and type of bid, Bidz cost
between .50 and $1, and they are available for
purchase in Bid Packs. At times MLMauction™ will have promotional pricing.
MLMauction™ accepts Paypal (our preferred method), Visa, MasterCard and Discover.
Learning How To Participate In An
Auction
Now the fun begins! At this point in time you’ll begin to see Bidz as they appear on
your screen. This number will update every time you bid on our MLMauction™ site.
Tip: We highly recommend that
before you begin bidding that you watch a few auctions and take some time to familiarize yourself with the pace and
the dynamics of an auction. On the Home page you’ll see a section labeled ‘Live
Auctions’ that displays the auctions that are currently running.
The
Timer
The Timer counts down
consecutively until it gets below 20 seconds. From that point on, the timer will reset to 0:20 seconds every
time a Bid is placed, thereby giving other Users the chance to Bid again.
Note: A traditional Auction… Resets at 20
seconds.
There will be times that MLMauction™ will host what we call “Speed
Auctions.” These are Auctions where the Timer will reset to a maximum of 0:10 seconds. To
determine whether or not an auction is a Speed Auction, check for the small timer icon accompanying it.
Bidding
When it comes to bidding, once again, we’re pleased to
provide you with options...
Option #1 is to simply
select the “Bid” button. Your Bid will be recorded and your User name will show up as the
highest Bidder. Each time you’re out-bidded by another user, you’ll need to manually click the
“Bid” button again in order to have another chance to win the item.
Option # 2 is the MLMauction™ “Bidz Buddy.” This feature does your bidding for you!
“Bidz Buddy” is designed for you to go hands-free, or even Internet-free, as “Bidz
Buddy” will automatically place Bidz from your account, per your direction. Simply instruct it how
often and how many Bidz you’re willing to give up, and the price at which you want to start
bidding.
“Buy Now” Explained
We strongly encourage
you to use this feature if you are not the lucky auction winner. The “Buy Now” feature
exists in order to guarantee that nobody ever loses on MLMauction™, so long as they
commit to buying the item at our retail price, of course, there are people who will spend up to almost the
item's retail price, not win the auction, and subsequently fail to exercise this feature. We suggest that
it would be prudent for you to ask yourself when times like this arise… “Why wouldn’t I just
Buy Now?”
How “Buy Now”
Works
Let's use the example that you want to Bid on a $100 gift card. In this auction you
place 50 Bidz (at $0.50 a bid, that’s $25.00). Let’s assume, in this example, that
you didn't win the Auction. In this case you may exercise the 'Buy Now' feature, and in doing
so you would make up a percentage of the price of the gift card in order to purchase it. You haven’t
wasted any money doing this so long as you committed to buying the gift card at the retail price. However, if
you didn’t use this feature, the $25 you spent on bidz is lost to you, but still helps
kids!
Once you purchase the item, we’ll process your order and it is shipped out as soon as
feasibly possible. We encourage you to keep in mind that only Purchased Bidz (as opposed to Bonus or
Free Bidz) may be applied toward “Buy Now” purchases. You must place at least one
Bid in an auction to use the “Buy Now” feature.
MLMauction™ will periodically hold promotions
where we give out Bonus Bidz. When we do, we will be sure to inform
you. Our auction system is designed to provide you with the capability to see where you can choose the
“Buy Now” feature below an auction's opened page. Note that you can view this whether
you’re logged in or not.
Can Everyone Be A Winner?
Yes! In creating
the MLMauction™ site, it was important to us that everyone be given the chance to
be a winner in the auctions! We want you to understand that even if you don't win the auction, you'll never have to walk away empty-handed.
Any time after you've placed your first Bid in an auction, you may choose to buy the product at a discount using
the “Buy Now” feature. You'll never have to pay more than the retail price for any
products on MLMauction™. However, understand that not everyone will win the auction
at a large discount. In designing the MLMauction™ site, we’ve designed a unique algorithm
that is able to calculate a pro-rated percentage off of the price.
When you select the “BUY NOW”
option, you receive a “Credit” toward the purchase of the item. This credit, in turn, gives you a
discount on the item you were bidding on.
Bonus Bidz
Bonus Bidz do not count toward your discounted purchase price. We sincerely appreciate you and your business and we greatly
appreciate you referring your friends to MLMauction™, and as a means to thank you for your
referrals, we are pleased to credit you with Bonus Bidz.
We are here to help you understand the
MLMauction ™ site to ensure that you will have the ultimate experience in
auction shopping each time you participate in our MLMauction™ auctions! Please contact our
MLMauction™ Customer Support
at support@MLMauction.comwith any questions
that you may have. We’re here to assist
you!
Prosperous
Bidding!
Tips For The Best Way To Win An
Auction
It’s only natural to want to know if there are any tips on how to improve
your chances of winning an auction on MLMauction™. Although there is no guaranteed winning strategy, we have compiled the following tips
that Users have found to be helpful when getting started:
1. Place Your Bid Within The Last 15 Seconds
By placing a Bid in the last few seconds, you know that the time will reset and
you'll become the highest Bidder. If someone else Bidz, time will be added and you'll get another
chance to Bid.
2. Bid On The Cheapest Products
You can get some buys on our “Big Ticket”
items, however, these items also tend to generate the most competitive auctions. Fewer bidders Bid
on less expensive items, meaning you are much more likely to win.
3. Protect Yourself With Bidz Buddy
Bidz Buddy is a powerful tool when using strategic limits. It
is possible to intimidate your competition, because the other Bidders know that the Bidz Buddy will always place
Bidz to keep you on top. Your chances of winning are increased, and other Users know it.
4. Turn Your Competitors' Bidz Buddys Against Each Other
Some Users set the Bidz Buddy and forget about it. It is
simpler to win if your competition has stepped away from the computer with the assumption that their Bidz
Buddy will fully protect them. We have seen that Users tend to set their Bidz Buddy to a round number,
so use this to your advantage. You can wait for a round number and then place a single Bid after it.
This can be beneficial if, on the off-chance the Bidz Buddy of your competition has reached its
limit.
5. Watch Other Bidders
View the details of the last ten Bidz placed and try to figure out the
following:
a) Who is bidding?
b) When do they place their Bidz?
How Bidz Buddy Works
Bidz Buddy was created as a
means for automatically placing Bidz for you, governed of course by how you instruct it to place Bidz. Bidz
Buddy even lets you bid if you're not logged on to our website! Using Bidz Buddy means that your Bid will
automatically be placed in the last 20 seconds. You'll never have to worry about losing your Internet
connection or getting distracted in the final seconds.
We designed Bidz Buddy for you with the
goal of it being more efficient than other automatic bid placing functions available on other sites.
Bidz Buddy's Protocol:
- You can
only set one Bidz Buddy at a time per
auction.
- Bidz Buddy may be deactivated
at any point during the auction. (The number of deactivations will be limited to minimize server
load).
- If an auction ends, all
unused Bidz Buddy Bidz will remain in your account.
- Bidz Buddy will place a bid for you whenever the timer drops below 20 seconds. It is up
to the Bidz Buddy to select exactly when it will place that Bid.
- Bidz Buddy can be set up by you with a minimum and a maximum number of bidz you choose
to use.
- Bidz Buddy cannot be
activated on auctions with less than 2 seconds remaining on the auction clock.
- Bidz Buddy will start to Bid for you as soon as you click the
“Activate” button, unless there is less than 2 seconds remaining on the auction
clock.
How to Use Bidz Buddy:
In the Bidz Buddy area on the right side
of every auction page, simply enter the “Bid From” price (which is the price you want the Bidz Buddy
to start placing Bidz) and the number of Bidz you're prepared for it to use. Then select
“Activate”.
Sit back, relax, and watch your Bidz Buddy do all the work for
you. Remember though, that you don't even have to be logged in for Bidz Buddy to
operate.
When Two or More Bidz Buddys Are Set To Bid In The Same Price Range
- If there are two or more Bidz
Buddys bidding in the same auction, a Bid will be placed sometime in the last 20 seconds just as if there was one
Bidz Buddy Bidder. Only one bid from a Bidz Buddy Bidder will be placed at a time.
- The exact time that Bidz Buddy Bidz, varies, it can be
anywhere between 0 and 20 seconds. This feature is randomized to prevent other Bidders from knowing if a Bidz
Buddy is in play.
Note: While
the Bidz Buddy function is offered on many of our auctions, it is not offered on all of them. If you do not
see it on the auction page, you might be looking at an auction where Bidz Buddy is not
available.
The Item You’ve Always Wanted
We understand the importance of providing choices
to you, lots of them, and at great savings! For this reason, MLMauction™ offers
thousands of auctions and each one is guaranteed to have an auction Winner!
It
is our intention to provide you with an incredible experience with valuable savings! In doing this, we hope that
you ultimately choose MLMauction™ to be your one-stop shop for
consumer goods. In setting this goal for ourselves, we are constantly expanding our product selection to
provide you with greater variety in your shopping experience.
Because
our auctions make available to you literally thousands of products every day, we understand that it can become
difficult to keep on top of all our offers. We also understand that you, our valued customer, have a busy
schedule and that it is simply not realistic that you can find time to check our MLMauction™ site every time a new deal pops up. For this
reason, we offer a “Notify Me” feature that emails you a notification about a certain product when it
becomes available on an auction, and can
further notify you of any activity surrounding that auction. This feature helps to ensure that you never miss
the opportunity to win the item that you and/or your loved ones have always desired!
Let Us Know What You Want Auctioned On
MLMauction™
We go to great effort to provide you with the shopping experience that fits your lifestyle! To
accomplish this, it is of paramount importance for us to auction unique items that everyone loves! To support our
efforts in doing so, we hope that you will communicate with us on a regular basis. We want to hear what your
product suggestions are, so we can continue to provide you with the ultimate MLMauction™experience! Just send your suggestions to info@MLMauction.com.
The following provide simple suggestions as a way
to keep up with the new products offered on MLMauction™:
1. Follow us
on Facebook, Twitter, Linked-In, Google+…
By following MLMauction™ on Twitter, you’ll receive special
promotions for Bonus Bidz and you can be among the first to learn about new updates and offers.
Following us can provide many opportunities for you, such as knowing what new products are in their last few
seconds/minutes of auction!
2. Narrow your search...
We understand that attempting to sort through thousands of live
auctions all at the same time is by far a too involved process to allow for a great shopping experience.
Because we place your shopping experience as a top priority at MLMauction™, we have provided a way to
make certain that you can always find the product you want. To accomplish this, we have created a menu of
Categories on the Home page. If you’re searching for a new i-Pad, simply select
the appropriate category to find the i-Pad that you are looking for. It’s that
simple!
3. Familiarize yourself with our MLMauction™site, and
check the site often…
We realize that life can be very busy, and it may be difficult to
find time to check our MLMauction™site every hour for your favorite
live auctions. We suggest that you try to find just a little bit of time to visit our site, every day or
every few days, so you become more familiar with the times that items go live for auction. Visiting the site
often and becoming familiar with it can help you plan your auctions more successfully!
We believe if you
follow these simple tips you’ll find that you’re more knowledgeable about the constant stream of new
products as they become available at MLMauction™!
How MLMauction™ Protects Its Customers
Shopping on MLMauction™ can be fun, exciting and
lucrative! It is possible however, that situations arise where a potentially rewarding shopping opportunity
attracts people who will try to take advantage of such a system. Because this possibility does exist,
MLMauction™ has taken in-depth steps to help ensure that our customers have a fair bidding
experience. It is a policy of MLMauction™ to work hard in our efforts to prevent fraudulent
Users from breaking the rules and creating an unfair advantage.
We have a professional and strong Compliance Department
with a wide variety of tools to help protect our customers. We have provided the following tips to help you
continue to have a fun and exciting time in a “fair” environment.
1. Know
the Rules, and follow them...
The MLMauction™ auctionsite Terms and Conditions and
Site Rules were created to provide fairness for all of our customers. A link to the site’s Terms and
Conditions can be found at the bottom of the Homepage.
Some of these rules, such as the “Win
limits”, are automatically applied by our MLMauction™auction platform, as within the example:
No more than 10 wins are allowed per week, and 40 wins per month.
Our site’s Terms
and Conditions and Site Rules must be strictly adhered to in order to create a fair playing field for everyone
participating in our auctions. These rules are strictly enforced to prevent persons from having multiple
accounts or using robots which may give someone advantage over other participants, for
example.
We ask that
you pay close attention to the paragraph at the bottom of the site rules that states:
Important:
Please note that breaking these rules (e.g. by creating multiple accounts for one person or by using
robots) violates MLMauction™ Terms & Conditions and will result in the disabling of all of the
violating customer accounts. Any items won while in violation of the terms & conditions are not valid and
will not be fulfilled. Further, refunds will only be processed for the amounts paid for these items and not
for any Bidz used to win these items while violating the terms & conditions. Our system is set up
this way to protect our customers and to provide a disincentive to anyone with immoral intentions from
participating on our site.
2. Do not allow others use your
account, especially minors…
Your username and password are private and should be known only by you. We will
never ask you for your password. MLMauction™ cannot, and does not take any responsibility for
other individuals logging into your account and bidding on auctions under your account. It is your sole
responsibility to see that no unauthorized individuals, including minors, get into your MLMauction™
account.
It is important for you to be aware that MLMauction™ cannot, and does not
support any claim arising from a user saying that an unauthorized person logged into their account and Bid on
an auction. Requests for their money back for the Auction, because they claim... “It was not them
bidding”, will be denied.
It is your sole responsibility to keep your account information private, and doing
otherwise can jeopardize your account security and/or disable your account entirely.
3. Be
yourself…
We want to make sure that your information is protected and that all transactions processed
on our MLMauction™ site, are by customers that are who they say they are. For this reason and in
order to do our best to protect you, we carefully review billing information for each transaction processed on our
site. In the event there is a question as to the accuracy of the identity of the User,
MLMauction™ reserves the right to verify certain information about you that resides in our records
before we ship you the items that you have won or purchased.
In the event that we find it necessary to ask you certain questions, it does not mean that we
believe you have done anything wrong, it is simply a security measure.
MLMauction™ does not
retain any personal information other than what is provided at registration, and we will never sell any of your
information to third parties, as noted in our Privacy Policy. If you refuse to verify your information when requested, or you don’t respond to our
verification requests, we will not be able to ship you the items and will refund the purchase price of the
item.
4. Know your friends...
We have made the “One account per
person” rule to provide everyone with a fair opportunity at winning. If you use a friend’s or
family member’s computer to access MLMauction™, and they use the same computer to access their
own MLMauction™ account, you should be proactive and contact MLMauction™ Customer
Support at support@MLMauction.com to let them know about this. We also highly recommend being especially
careful that you don’t get linked with “friends” that have already violated any Rule or
Regulation of MLMauction™.
We do not tolerate fraud. Stolen credit cards used or attempted to be used on our site are reported to the
appropriate authorities. We take fraud very seriously and prosecute whenever possible.
Are your products brand
new?
Yes, all the products on our site are brand new and covered by the manufacturer's
warranty.
We have secured a large variety of supply lines to be able to offer you these kinds of
prices; such as store liquidations, out-of-business inventories, wholesalers close-outs, special agreements with
tour operators (travel packages), or simply retail sites like Amazon.com and others.
Beginner Mistakes To
Avoid
When new to MLMauction™, it’s possible you’ll find that a period of
time, as well as some assistance is necessary before you completely understand our auction platform and begin to
win auctions. It is our desire for you to have success on our site and to enjoy yourself during the auction
experience, and we have compiled some examples which offer a bit of tactical advice for beginners.
It is natural to feel
a bit unsettled going into your first few auctions, so we hope to assist you by suggesting the following
examples…
Let’s start with
two scenarios typically encountered by new MLMauction™ Users:
Scenario
1: Denise purchases $25 worth of Bidz
in an attempt to win a new i-Pad.
Denise wants to win this i-Pad for $25 at the most, so she would
save a substantial amount of money!
Denise spends all her Bidz on the i-Pad auction, but doesn’t
walk away with a brand new i-Pad. Denise says….."I don't like MLMauction” “I
didn't get my i-Pad for $25 and lost all my money! I'm never coming back." The story ends sadly
for Denise and MLMauction™ both, since she lost $25 and we lost a customer.
Scenario
2: John finds our MLMauction™ site,
intrigued by the amazing low prices that MLMauction™ products sell for. He thinks….“How
hard can this be?” “It doesn’t look much different from eBay!”
John buys a Bid
Package and enters the Auction. He spends $20 before realizing that auctions reset every time someone
Bids. "That’s not how eBay works!” he thinks to himself. “I can't believe I
spent my money on some scam. Forget this!” So again, in this example we have another sad ending
for both John and for MLMauction™.
Here at MLMauction™, we want to do our best to see
that these types of experiences are few and far between. We don’t want anybody to walk away
empty-handed like Denise and John did, in our above examples. For this reason we want to share with you the
three largest mistakes that Users may possibly make in their first experiences with MLMauction™.
These mistakes are:
1) Setting unrealistic expectations
We can't stress this enough that Users
need to set realistic goals when participating in auctions. If you are new to an online auction, though we
applaud your enthusiasm, we want to be realistic with you by saying that you probably shouldn't expect to win an
i-Pad on your first try with only the cheapest Bid Pack available. We’re not saying it couldn't
happen... but, it is highly improbable. We want you to realize that you will be bidding against Users with
far more experience than you have as a beginner, and that the odds are against you because of it.
We strongly encourage
new Users to start using the site by participating in smaller auctions. Once you have some experience behind
you, then begin climbing the ladder in your proficiency with the auctions.
2) Going for the most popular item as a
beginner
It’s not wise to immediately go after the most popular item on our auction site.
There are a lot more competitors bidding for the popular products, and many of them are highly skilled
veterans at this. Once you’re acquainted with the site, you’ll understand that going after
popular products necessitates certain measures to protect your Bid investment. We recommend that you commit
to only one such auction at a time, and that you don’t get too involved without considering using the
“Buy Now” feature, if you don’t win, that is.
Don't spread yourself too thin when bidding on the
“Big-ticket” items. Be willing to devote more time and money to increase your odds of winning.
We believe that you will find that by spending about 1/3 of the value of the item in Bidz, you greatly
increase your odds of winning the item.
3) Jumping right in
As with anything you invest your money in, do
research before jumping into MLMauction™ auctions. Each auction is
going to be different from the others, so read and understand our Terms & Conditions, familiarize yourself with
the "Buy Now" option, the Bidz Buddy tool and our pricing structure. We also
recommend carefully watching other auctions to see how they unfold. All this will help you to understand
“the nature of the business," as well as what we strive to accomplish with our site.
By limiting your
understanding of the system, you are setting yourself up for a severe disadvantage. As we always say, we
offer a fun and exciting on-line auction experience for our customers, however we strongly believe that the
stronger understanding of the MLMauction™ system you have, the more
enriched your experience will be with us, and the more fun and success you will have!.
Bidding on 'Big
Ticket' Items
Opportunities to win an auction on a brand new i-Pad for $25.00
arise every day for our Users. Who would turn this deal down or a new Brand name television for $28.75? So
how do you actually win the auction on these “Big Ticket” items? Here’s what we
recommend:
The Importance
of Realistic Expectations
Understanding that the more expensive items will generate the most
competition in the auction is important. When an auction item costs more than $1,000 it will always generate
a lot of interest and bidding. It is very common for more than 100 people to Bid on these kind of items in a
single auction. It is important for you to understand that such auctions are high risk/high reward and should
to be treated that way.
Winning such an auction with a small number of Bidz is possible and
happens every day, however, we want you to understand that most Users who win more expensive items place a
considerable number of Bidz before winning. Winning these high risk/high reward items with only a few
Bidz placed has been proved possible, but know that such a win is much less statistically
likely.
Be
Knowledgeable
We recommend following an item that you want to win and watch other auctions for it prior to
bidding. There are many factors that affect what price an item will ultimately sell for. You can learn
a lot by observing auctions prior to bidding yourself. An example of this knowledge you may gain from doing
so, is that you may learn that certain items will generate more competition and bidding during the nighttime,
rather than in the afternoon. Savvy Users are often rewarded for doing research before bidding on a large
auction.
Focus and Be
Disciplined
Focusing your attention and your bidding on a single auction and on one item at a time have a
higher success rate and are generally more satisfied with their experience using MLMauction™. We also recommend never entering an auction without a sufficient number of Bidz. One role of
focusing means being prepared by not getting into a situation where you would need to leave mid-auction to purchase
additional Bidz. Finally, be sure to set a budget on the Bidz that you are willing to spend and be
disciplined to not exceed your budget.
What If I Don’t Win?
MLMauction™
commits to provide a fun, engaging shopping experience and plenty of great deals to our Users. One of the
features that we have available that lets us stand by our commitment is the “Buy Now” feature.
Utilizing this feature allows you to use any Bidz that were placed during an auction to be put toward the retail
market value of that product. “Buy Now” is a security net that lets you confidently enter into
any auction knowing that you’ll never have to pay more than our retail price for the auctioned item.
“Buy Now” is MLMauction™’ way of showing how much we appreciate your
business.
It is our hope that this feature helps
you win these “Big Ticket” items. MLMauction™ does not guarantee
that implementing the above listed suggestions will win any auction. Auctions are dependent on the Users
participating in them and because of this, it is not possible to be certain what another user will do, however,
experience shows that following the guidelines provided above will increase your odds of winning in a given
auction, especially if you’re a beginner.
Site

1. Only one account is allowed per person.
