      What is the buyer process from new account to bidding?

      This article explains the customer experience on the buyer portal from start to finish.

      Steps to Bid

      1. Create Account: required before they're able to register or place bids.
      2. Browse: Buyers can browse individual listings, auctions, or sellers.
      3. Wishlisting and Following Sellers: individual items can be wishlisted for buyers to keep track of, and sellers can be followed to stay up to date on new auctions. 
      4. Register for Auction: once an item is found, buyers must register for the auction it's contained in (and receive approval if it's required by the seller).
      5. Bid: buyers are now able to place bids on items within auctions they've registered for. Additionally, our platform enables proxy bidding, where buyers are able to place bids higher than required. If they are outbid, additional bids will automatically be placed for them until they reach the amount they set their bid at.
