Good question Slavica.
There are many tips available but only your own experiences in participating is detrimental to success.I have personally participated in numerous auctions but have yet to win any.On a few occasions my bid was just before the winning price.
Firstly,it depends on whether you are a first timer or regular. For a first timer it is imperative that we select the appropriate auction. It is best that we select an auction that is categorised as follows:
1WA - Limited to only bidders who have never won any Pricebenders auction
Jr- Junior auction which is limited to members with 9 wins or less
Preferably to opt for 1WA since your chances are greater.
Secondly,it also depends how much are you willing to lose.Set a target since every bid will cost you 1 TCredit ($0.29 if purchase in bulk of 125TCredit SO).It will be more costly if your TCredits are not purchase in bid.
Thirdly, before you participate in any Pricebenders auction,it is advisable that you observe a few Pricebenders auction if time permitted. This is to enable you to study the trend and strategize your further action.
Once you are fully equipped with the basic knowledge you are now ready to participate.The most important tip is do not participate at the beginning of the auction.By doing so you will unnecessarily exhausted your TCredits.
Carefully observe the auction and take note of the time interval for the price change.
Enter your bid only when the auction timer is about 20 seconds or less.If the timer repeatedly reaches zero and zero again before starting over, it means that lesser bidders are participating and your chances will be greater.
Another factor to be considered is to participate in auctions where no auto bidder is allowed.This gives you more chances to win.However if you have sufficient TCredits and you are willing to take the risk then it is envisaged that you use your auto bid with care.Time your bid appropriately so that you would not unnecessarily exhausted your TCredits.
Lastly participate in Pricebenders auction for cheaper items since more bidders will participate in more expensive items such as computers, handphones and other electronic items.Your winning probability will be more when less bidders are participating in cheaper items.
Good luck in your participation and do not forget that there is nothing to lose even though you did not win.After all you will also earn valuable Versapoints and Member Reward points which will allow you to obtain ranking as well as purchase of products from TripleClicks.com
In addition by entering 50 bids you will also be rewarded with a PSA within 4 to 5 days.Hope the above tips helps.
