Participating in Pricebenders auction can be fun and rewarding. There are certain factors which can influence the chances of winning an auction:

- Number of TCredits you have set aside for bidding.

Prepare your bidding plan. This includes the number of TCredits you’re willing to spend in participating an auction, the number of bidding auctions and which items.

- Bidding Schedule. This includes the bidding time and which day of the week.

Review the auction history of your selected items. This will give you a good idea of the winning bids. You should record all the auctions which interest you and pay special attention of the bidding time and day. Armed with this statistics you’ll have higher probability of winning an auction.

- Bidding Features such as 1WA, WBF, New, DP, NAB, Jr, Big Dog, etc.

If you’re new participants, look for auction features 1WA (1st Win Auction) or Jr. (Junior). In this auction features, you won’t be bidding against heavy hitters or more experienced bidders.

- Price Value of bid items.

The higher the value of an item being auctioned, the higher the probability of attracting more participants to bid. Less expensive items may lead to less attraction of bidding participants and thereby increases the chances of winning.

- Number of Participants with their bidding habits/behavior.

Know who’s who in bidding. Review the VersaPoints Leaderboard. Generally avoid bidding against the Top 50 on the list. You’ll find out more about a bidder by clicking on the username found under the Bid Log. Sometimes some auction items like TCredits are scheduled simultaneously or 30 minutes apart for bidding. Take note on the behavior of the bidders. If an auction item is going out of control due to the ferocity of bidding, the second auction item may not get as much attention and so you have higher chances of winning here.

- Connectivity issues such as latency (network delays), computer crashes, etc.

Don’t wait too long to enter your bid till the last few seconds, your bid won’t go through in time. When you enter your bid, being the last one to bid before the clock hits zero, will keep you from winning, especially if your bid is delayed due to latency.

Before bidding, be sure to read the “Tips & Strategies For Winning Pricebenders Auctions” by clicking this link: http://www.tripleclicks.com/PBTips.php

Knowing the aforementioned points beforehand will likely increase your chances of winning the auction at Pricebenders.

Auctions are really a competition. You are competing with others and those who have the stamina, the more robust strategy and enough TCredits to back it up win.

Here are my suggestions:

- I would suggest that you start off with 1WA auctions – those restricted only to those who have never won a Pricebenders auction before. In this way you are competing with those who are more or less of the same experience as yourself. Stay away from the more advanced auctions until you are an experienced bidder.
- Select the item/auction that you are going to bid on and decide on the price that you are prepared to pay for it. Remember after you had won the auction you then have to pay for the item. You can find out in advance what’s coming up for auction.
- To help you determine what the likely final auction price of what you are going to bid on, have a look at the results of the previous auctions when the item was last up for auction.
- Make sure you have enough TCredits available for bidding. I would suggest at least 100 TCredits.
- Now that you know what your maximum bid is going to be & how many TCredits you are going to spend, work out how you are going to bid. Are you going to manually bid or are you going to use the auto bidder? If you are using the auto bidder plan properly. You don’t have to use it from the beginning. You can come in at the higher end of the bidding depending on your set price.
- When the bidding starts, don’t get over excited but stick to your plan.

Dear Friend,

Now days, there are many and various auction windows in SFI for an affiliate to move forward. Nevertheless, one should have proper planning before entering into an auction and become the ultimate winner.

I always advise my team members, especially the new ones to observe the Auction for a certain time period and understand the movement and the price variation about a certain item.

Accordingly, they can learn the tricks and even they can mould their own strategy before they enter into an auction. By doing so, they will be able to even understand about the strategies of seasonal winners and big auction masters.

Secondly, one should do the homework about the price factor and he or she should decide when they can enter into an action and how much TCredits they can consume in a particular auction to get the desired results.

Then, one should start with First Win Auctions to try their mettle and potential. After that, slowly they can put their hands in Junior Auctions and subsequently into regular ones.

Participating in auctions needs sheer determination and self confidence. If the people are completely confident of themselves and if they can formulate their own winning strategy, then they are unstoppable and no one can deny the success to such ones.

In short, have enough patience, observe the situation wisely, have sheer determination and self confidence, then success will be just yours.

Wish you more successes.

There is one thing to keep in mind when joining Pricebenders Auction. "You are competing with real people with different strategies" therefore there is no single technique that can make you win. It's very dynamic therefore you must observe the behaviours of the bidder.

However there are general techniques that you can follow.

1. Waiting for the Winning Moment to come. How do we know the winning moments?
a. The timer is going once... going twice.. consecutively 3 to 5 times.
b. There must be no autobidder. If there is you must be willing to dislodge him.
c. Attack and load your autobidder.
d. When the item is no autobid just continuously click the bid button.

2. Show your Muscle - Buy about 1,000TC and just put in in autobid until everyone surrender. If you do this several times and the bidders notice your behavior, you will be winning items at low prices next time. The reason is they will be afraid to compete with you.

3. Toying Around - You also need big Stock of TC. Your Technique is just preventing anybody from winning. Until the time that you will be the person bidding up to the ending of bidding time. So you bid only once you see the timer going once..

4. Intermittent Autobid Attack - You go on auto bid at the start put probably 50 to 60 TC. After that you stop and wait for the time that the time is again going once.. going twice.. 2 to 3 times. Then Attack again with 50 to 100 TC. You will not stop however if you remain as the last person in at the end of the timer.

How the number of TC needed? You must have at least 200TC to 500TC to have a good fight.

If you are new to Pricebenders Auctions I recommend you read all the information on the Auctions at the Pricebenders website. I am listing the titles and links here below, they can also be accessed on Pricebenders website:

Tips For Winning: https://www.tripleclicks.com/PBTips.php

I know that Mozilla Firefox is a browser that has been recommended to me because it functions with faster speed than most other browsers.

Be sure that you have an internet connection that is high speed. It is best to have only one window open when you participate in the auctions so that your connection speed is not slowed down.

I recommend that you observe several auctions before participating so that you gain some insight into how it is run.

I have observed many very long auctions and a few that ran for only 10 to 15 minutes with the winning bid at less than one dollar. The short auctions I observed were late in the evening. I think that these auctions ended quickly because there were not many people placing bids. The long auctions usually end with a high winning bid.

Before you enter an auction be sure that you have enough TCredits to try to win. Each auction is different so it is hard to put a number on the amount of TCredits you should have before you enter. I think that 100 to 200 TCredits would be a good number to start with. I know that people have won a Pricebenders Auction before with fewer than 100 TCredits.

If you haven't yet won an auction I recommend you participate in 1st Win Auctions until you win. After that it is best to bid in the Junior Auctions to try to win there. Some items with a lower monetary value may be easier to win because there are fewer people placing bids and you may want to try winning one of these.

For each bid you place you will earn one action VP and 5 MRP - 10 MRP in the Double Points Auctions. You may win TCredits in the Flash Drawings. To be entered in the flash drawing you must place at least one bid within the last 5 minutes before the bar reaches the "star". There is a limit of 3 Flash Drawing wins per auction. When I won in the Flash Drawings I received 4 TCredits for each win.

The new Bid & Build Program introduced recently is a great way to add PSAs to your Team. On Cyber Monday I participated and earned 3 PSAs for the bids I placed. The usual limit per day is 2 PSAs.

When bidding at Pricebenders Auctions you will "win" even if you do not win the item you are bidding on; you will earn Action VP and MRP and you have a chance to win TCredits. Also, while the current Bid & Build Program is in effect you will receive one PSA for every 50 bids you place with a limit of 2 PSAs per day.

I do think that luck plays a part in the auction bidding process and hopefully if you are well prepared you will also increase your chances and become lucky and win a Pricebenders Auction!

Have fun bidding and I hope that you are a winner in the auctions soon!

Winning a Price Bender's auction is as hard as any other task. However, a proper plan and systematic approach can lead to an easy and smooth win. I would like to point out some of the best possible ways you can attempt.

1. Before participating in the auction, you should fix your target product. Once your target is fixed, start looking around the ongoing auctions on the same product. Look the winning price range during the last 10 times by visiting the auction winners page.

2. Checkout the time of the day and day of the week when the product has been won at lowest prices.

3. Check the amount of the TCredits usually spent by one bidder to win the auction. Make sure you have that many bids in your account before you participate.

4. If you are a newbie, I recommend you to start participating in a no-auto bidder auction. In that case, you minimize the option of loosing huge amount of TCredits in a flash.

5. While you are playing in an auction, keep an eye on the opposing bidders. Check their profile by clicking on there name and. If you find someone experienced and powerful in your opposition, you can stop playing in that.

6. Do not hesitate to loose few TCredits initially as few people may checkout your strength at the beginning. If you can hold on those initial moments, you can win auctions easily.

If you follow these tips, I believe you can have a auction win soon.

PATIENCE and EXPERIENCE is the key.
Sometimes it takes more then 3 hours to win auction.
First you have to participate few times to learn how are things going there.
Learn to reckognise AUTO-BIDDER.
Never bid vs AUTO-BIDDER unless you are prepared to spend a lot of TCredits to break AUTO-BIDDERS limit + to continue winning vs other players.
There are no guaranties to win auctions. Actually you need to have some luck too.
But if you are experienced player then you will be able to reckognise if someone turned on AUTO-BIDDER, as well to reckognise active players and to know if they are going all in or not. Participating in some cheaper auctions brings you more chances to win.

From my experience you will have to invest minimum 100TCredits ( offcourse, if you are lucky you can win with only 1 TC but we are talking now about winning auction without luck ). You will have to reckognise the right moment when to start bidding and keeping yourself as a high bidder. Sometimes you can win if you turn on AUTO-BIDDER at the start of auction and limit it to 1 dollar. Sometimes you cant even if you limit it to 5 dollars and that is 250TCredits spent.
The more you play, the more experience you get. FELLING is something that can't be learned through reading advices. You will have to experience yourself. Also SPECTATING auctions without participating can help you a lot. I personally spectated more then 20 hours overall auctions and i learned a lot. I participated 6 times and won 4 times. So 6 times / 4 wins is insanely good win rate for auctions. But i've spent a lot of hours just spectating. DO FOLLOW bid log.

EXPERIENCE is the key!

Good luck

Hello Slavica,

You need to participate in First win auction.

Before participating , keep observing every 1st win auction that you can. Make notes. Keep track of the auction start time and end time. Keep track of how many members participated in this auction.Keep track who bid how many t credits. You can even record the auction and check all these.

Observe for a week or so. Then select the product based on your analysis of the recorded data. Also select the time of auction when less members participate. If only winning is the priority participate in auction which close at less price because not many want to win it.

When you decide to participate ensure that your browser settings are ok. Do not open more than one window. Keep laptop charged and ensure continuous internet availability.

Keep patience. Auction may take long time to conclude than what you expect. Do not waste a tc when someone else has been bidding after others bid. Do not let the timer reach 0 when you bid. Prefer Mozilla browser.

Focus on winning. Do not let any negative thought come in your mind. Have Sufficient T credits.

Wish you good luck.

Great question Slavica,

First I recommend that you read Tips and Strategies for winning Pricebenders
Auction. Read it over and over again till it sinks in your mind for a permanent
Reminder since it is very vital for your winning success in the auction.

2, don’t rush to participate in the auction, take your time and study the product
The once you want to bid on how much they worth and how much you are willing
To spend on it. Remember it is a penny increment auction on the surface, but
Actually each bid will cost you at least $0.29 so put that in consideration when you
Bid to determine your profit or lose.

3, Study the people who are bidding on the auction, their bidding behavior, their
Strategy, their experience, who they are, We used to have their name and more info
About them but not anymore, but you can still truck them down, by country flag
And by the list of bidding they do from latest winners list.

4, Very critical start from the (1wa ) first timer who never won pricebenders auctoin
Before.
Then do the junior auction for your next 8 winning bid, no reason to jump to others
Since you have 9 chances before you put yourself with experienced bidders. You will
Gain enough feeling what is coming at later days. Also watch the experienced bidders.

5 Never engaged in a bidding war, don’t put your emotion and ego ahead of what
You are there in the first place, Don’t pay more than what the actual item worth for.
If your final expenditure looks more than what you are paying if you buy it from
Store, take your lose and get out of there.

If I go car auction, I wouldn’t be willing to pay $ 5000.00 for $ 2000.00 worth car
Because of everyone has a tag war on it. Be smart and be efficient. Profits are made
When you buy it not when you sell it. Keep that in mind.

Last but not least don’t be emotional, if you win ok, repeat that strategy, if you lose ok as well correct your mistake and keep moving forward.

Hi Slavica, wining a pricebender auction requires adequate preparations. The following points are my tested tips:

1. Read all the FAQs so you're familiar with how Pricebender works.
2. Check how competitive the auction is. If too competitive don't join.
3. Don't immediately join the auction if fresh or just starting, so you can save some Tcredits for the actual war later.
4. Review previous pricebender auctions for the final wining price, so you have a guide when to join.
5. If the counter almost reaches zero again and again, fewer people are involved and you have a better chance to win.
6. Be timely in your participation, make repeated entries to avoid time lag due to slow internet connection.
7. If auto-bidder is available engage it together with step 3 above.
8. Fewer people generally bid on cheaper items. Watch out for less expensive items.
9. What time the biding starts is important, may be night in some countries, and fewer people participate.
10. Before you start biding get enough Tcredits so you don't have to break your auction to go and buy more Tcredits.
11. Check the auction bar. If more than half-way you can begin participation.
12. Winning is most simply a matter of bidding at the right time; be smart.

Above all, no limit to the number of tips and strategies. Luck is an important thing in pricebender auction.

Good Luck!
