- here is a short clip that explains exactly what bid rivals is and why it hands down beats any penny auction competitor out their!
What is BidRivals?
… good question!
BidRivals is just like ebay or amazon or any other E-commerce website out their except that you are able to but everything much cheaper!
You are can (BRAND NEW) premium products at super low prices… in fact at a FRACTION of the normal retail price. There are hundreds of daily auctions and hundreds of winnners of cheap electronics everyday.
How do BidRivals Penny Auctions work?
JUST THINK… LAST MAN STANDING WINS
If you are the last person to bid on an item when the clock hits zero you win the prize -- but because there are so many different people bidding at any one time this can be harder than it looks! You are able to set up automatic bidders which will bid for you so you dont have to.
You just set up the robot to bid a certain amount of bids before a certain price point and set and forget. This means if you were going to pay $1000 for an item anyway you could just check what the buy now price is within bid rivals and place an auto bidder with $1000 worth of bids… This way you are not risking anything unless you can by the product cheaper elsewhere.
Bid rivals prices are usually a little inflated on their BUY NOWS but you are taking the risk of getting it super cheap and having to buy it say an extra $100 dollars more expensive through bidrials rather than down the road at the sale… get it?
…
Once you register for free with an account you are set up to bid on any auction you choose! But choose wisely.. and dont spread your bids to thin!
By staying in one auction at a time and one that is at the right price point for your number of bids will give you the greatest chance of winning.

How to start?
A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE
Step 1:
Register for free and get your first bid free (but your going to need more than that if you want to win an auction!)
Step 2:
Decide what products you want!
This is the fun part -- find out what takes your fancy
Apple imacs, iphones, ipads?
Or bid packs, 50 inch TVS, or an Xbox?
Check out the auctions to decide the product you would like to get. You can search for a product or click on the categories and go from their!
Step 3:
The product which you decide you want to buy is actually very important! When it comes time to buying bid packs you are going to want to buy enough to cover the price of the auction! You dont want to be hurrying back to buy bidpacks in the middle of the auction because you ran out!
If you only want to buy 50 bids make sure that you choose a low price point auction so that you have a good chance of winning and therefore getting it cheap.
Step 4:
Bid by clicking on the “Bid” Button
Once you are inside the auction you can bid simply by clicking BID!
You will know this by know but I’ll say it again -
The PRICE of the item (Computer) you are bidding on will start at zero and increase every time someone places a bid. So in the image below you will pay 45.77 EUR for the product if you win now + whatever you have spent in bids… So if you have bid 15 times you will pay around (15EUR+45EUR)…
Whenever somebody bids the timer resets to the countdown time for that particular auction which is usually around 15 seconds. Eventually bidders will become less interested in the auction or run out of money and because you are focusing on one auction you stick around and beat them! Meaning you are the LAST MAN STANDING… and even if somebody else is you can simply use the buy now feature to get the product anyway.
Step 5:
YOU WON? Niiiiccceee!
After you have calmed down a bit you can race over to your cart and buy the brand new apple computer you just won for whatever low price it cam in at.
Bidrivals actually send your order straight to apple themselves so you can be certain your product will show up within 2 weeks depending on your location. You can ask for fast fedex shipping!
The BUY NOW feature allows you to hedge your bets -
a smart bid rival never walks away empty handed!
Remember! If you DONT win and DONT buy the product you lose all the money that you spend on the bids that you placed during that auction.
Step 6: How to proceed to payment of a won auction.
If you won click on my account and then on WON AUCTIONS
You then have the option to pay via all of the normal pay systems including paypal -- it couldn’t be easier.
‘Buy Now’ explained!
TIP: The only risk you run is if bid rivals “stand internet retail prices” are inflated!
Make sure that you check what the buy now price is for the auction you are bidding in and check that price against a normal electronics store price! The electronics store price will be on sale right?
So the difference between bid rivals retail price and the sale price down the road is WHAT YOU ARE RISKING… IF the risk is low in your eyes (and it usually is) then it’s worth bidding!
Choose to enter the bidding at the right time and you could literally pay around 50 dollars for a $3000 TV!
So in reality if you really wanted the product then you just can’t lose!

BidRivals Winning Tips
Be prepared and organize your plan of attack rather than allowing your emotions and excitement get the better of you.
Look for trends! Take a look at when the previous auctions closed! This will give you an idea of when you could come in an start bidding. Rather than starting the bidding at ZERO come in when the XBOX is at 20 US instead… This will give you a much better chance of winning.
Always have enough bids to start with when you are going into an auction!
Pick your battles and stick with them.
You will likely have never bid on anything on bid rivals before! If you are a beginner start small! You will want to spend your precious bids wisely right? Dont expect that one bid is going to win it for you… Go in with a pre determined number of bids and stick to it.
Study the current and previous bidders on an auction and guess which are the heavy players -- if their are too many auto bid bidders bidding (haha) you might want to look elsewhere or wait until they have spent out.
An auction usually closes when there is one auto bidder against a bunch of single bidders!!! You want to be that auto bidder!
This means that you should pick an auction an stick with it… understand that you are going to buy this item anyway if you dont happen to win it so spending the bids isn’t a problem to you.
CONTROL YOUR EMOTIONS!
Most users on bid rivals are simply trying to get lucky with a few bids here and a few bids their -- history has told us that if you want to WIN you need to be in it for the long haul and this means making intelligent use of the BID AGENT!
Dont expect that you can simply throw money at the bid agent and win a large TV… the more expensive the auction the more bidders are prepared to wait around and single bid your ass into insanity.
Just when you think you have one single bidders waiting on the outskirts will roast your ass -- so keep it realistic. The expensive auctions are near the top of the site and will get all of the attention.
Everybody will usually be bidding on the big iphones etc -- this could be your chance to snag a bargin on a bid pack or visa card.
