Types of Penny Auctions

Once you've completed registration as a bidder, you're ready to play which can be a lotta fun once you get the hang of it.

Penny Auction sites follow different auction formats. here are 2 well-known choices of Penny Auction you should familiarize yourself with.

Classic Online Auction
This is the standard auction in which the item is sold to the highest bidder. It is the most common format. You can offer bidding on 1 or 2 or multiple items. Auctioning multiple items at the same time is called a Dutch auction. These auctions run 1, 3, 5, 7 , or even 10 days.

Fixed Price Auction
There is a set price for the item with no bidding involved. You can expect a BuyNow price posted and you're allowed to buy the product outright. usually the item costs lower than its store-bought retail
price.

Penny Auction sites are a business, and fees will apply when bidding or purchasing items. Check with each Penny Auction sites what they're fees will be and how much a membership would cost.

A Penny Worth the Win

I don't have 2 pennies to rub together. Though in our household every penny saved is a penny earned. Often than not my pennies end up in online auctions such as madbid.com, quibids and wippy.com






So what do I exactly do? Earn penny candy, of course. I bid on really good shit I otherwise couldn't afford in retail stores.


I may not always get what I want, but I do end up with something worth my penny. And oh, don't worry about little things. Watching that auction timer like a hawk won't change the final outcome unless you're all out of pennies.
