On a traditional auction site buyers compete to push the price up. eBidzy works the opposite way: the price starts high and falls every time somebody bids. You are not trying to outbid anyone — you are deciding when the price is low enough to buy.

Tickets are the currency used to place bids. Joining an auction costs a small ticket entry fee, and each Power Bid spends tickets to drop the price. You can buy tickets as a one-off top-up or get a monthly allowance with a subscription.

No. Bidding only spends tickets. The only time your card is charged is when you choose to claim an item at its current price.

There is no waiting to be outbid. Once the price has dropped to a level you are happy with, you claim the item and it is yours at exactly that price. First to claim wins, so timing is everything.

You need a verified email address and a saved payment card on your profile. Add these under Profile before joining an auction so you can claim instantly when the price is right.

The price keeps drifting down on its own until it reaches the seller reserve. If the auction ends with no buyer it is closed and may be relisted later.

Every bid resets the clock, which keeps a busy auction alive and gives the price more time to fall. As an auction heats up the reset window gets shorter, so the closing stages move fast.
