Don’t you just hate it when you go to ebay, check out their list of items for sale, find the perfect one that you really like and you immediately get a sinking feeling the moment you see that it is up for bids instead of just buying it? Anyway, you like it so much that you take the risk, you bid on the auction and summon up all the patience you can get as you have to wait till the end to see if you won. During the whole waiting process, you hope for the best but prepare for the worst. You hope against hope that you won but considering the many others who also placed their bids, what are your chances? You are probably right to consider that your chances are slim and true enough, you later on find out that you did not win the bid and you have to undergo the whole grueling process once again. Yup, it is definitely an uncool and not very fun ordeal but what choice do you have, right?
In fact, you do have a choice with ebay’s bid assistant. Bid shopping is made way easier and much more simple with this tool. To begin with, it allows you to bid on several auctions and your bids will stay alive until you win one of them or if there are absolutely no more auctions left. This significantly increases your chances of winning the item you want and believe me, it is the closest feeling to winning the lottery. You finally have a shot at winning in bid shopping – something that feels so remote most of the time.
Another great feature of ebay’s Bid Assistant is that it allows you to bid on multiple auctions at one time for similar items until such a time when you finally win one of them. All you have to do is search for the model, add the item you want on your watch list, check the boxes of the items that you’d like to bid on, enter your maximum offer and click continue to finalize your bid placement. Once you have done all those, you can now relax as the bid assistant will do everything from there on and it won’t stop until you finally win an auction.
Bid shopping does not have to be a gruesome ordeal. With the bid assistant, it can be not just convenient but fun too. Try it out!
