Each bid belongs to a buyer
Bidding requires a signed-in buyer account and acceptance of the current buyer terms. Where identity verification is required, the account must be approved before a bid can be accepted.
Actual buyers. Recorded bids. A clear ending.
Understand how a Grand Valley Auto Bidd lot works before placing your first offer.
Staff accounts cannot bid
The Auto Bidd bidding service rejects staff accounts. Public bid history is built from the actual bidding ledger for this version.
Your paddle identifies your bids
Other visitors see a paddle number. Your name, email address, identity document and private maximum are not included in the public bid feed.
Automatic bids stay inside your limit
An auto bid authorizes the system to bid for you within the maximum you chose. It competes against actual buyer offers. The public price only changes when the auction rules call for it.
Late bids extend the clock
When a qualifying bid changes the leading price inside the extension window, time is added according to the lot rules. The updated server deadline governs the auction.
The record remains available
The lot retains its recorded bid history after closing. A lot below reserve creates no winning purchase. A successful close creates the buyer’s order for the agreed next steps.
