Ferrari Mailing List: Re: BIDNIP HELP....Please....

[Steve Cook (stevec]

Yes, it should ask you how many.

If you only bid $20 on 1 of 4 items, and there are other bidders that
bid on 1 (or 2 or 3) items and they bid $10, you'll only pay 10.  It's
if you bid on 4 out of 4 at $20 that you'd pay $20 (if you were the high
bidder).

If this is your first dutch auction, you might want to bid "by hand"
first - just to get the feel for how bidding works - and still bid in
the last few moments :)

But the FAQ says you are asked how many of the items you want - was that
not 
the case?

AH!  But there is a catch!

Dutch Auctions do NOT follow proxy bidding rules.

For dutch auctions the rule is  LOWEST WINNING BID is the price you pay.

So, if you bid 20.00 on ALL available items and you're the highest
bidder,
you'll pay 20.00 for each.

So, it doesn't automatically lower your bid.  That's the catch with
dutch
auctions.

Jim,
This was in the FAQ section of BidNip

<<Will BidNip work with eBay Motors or Dutch auctions?
Yes - it works great with both. With Dutch Auctions, simply specify the
number of items you want to when when setting up your snipe. >>

Good luck -
