I'm about to sign up. Any chance of gettin a bit of free BTC to bid with? I am quite tempted to send some BTC there, but would like to try it out first.

It's really not that weird. The people is one person. If you're watching the auctions as closely as I am you'll see that the past winner of the Xbox one you're referencing is only bidding up to a certain amount and then backs off.
Makes sense, right, an Xbox One for 0.05 BTC or thereabouts is a pretty good deal.
Ah wait, I stand corrected. You are correct, it is indeed more than one person. I see two previous winners auto bidding for an Xbox One.
Any plans to auction some PS4's? Kinda hoping to win one with the remaining free money I have.
Either the next auction or the one thereafter will be a PS4
Okay great. If I win tho I will have alot of luck and be surprised.

Interesting, I signed up. Do I qualify for some BTC to try it out?

Auctions from this week:
Xbox One 0.20920 -- Won (and verified) by starsoccer of bitcointalk
Xbox One 0.53060
PS4 0.28410
Xbox One 0.54630
Xbox One 0.19210
Ordinarily we'd post the username associated with every auction, but we're moving away from this. Pretty soon usernames displayed will be replaced with the first three characters of a username followed by *'s (like eBay). The reason for this is because of having identified collusion and other forms of abuse from rogue users who are able to identify others through their usernames, this is strictly forbidden in our terms and conditions. Happy to make an exception for bitcoin users for now (ergo starsoccer mentioned above), since they will find each other regardless of whether or not we post the usernames.
Any suggestions or specific products you want to see? Let us know.

Good questions, we're setting up an FAQ page to address these as well as other questions. Also trying to make the UI more intuitive so they don't have to be asked to start with.
Much appreciated, thanks.
Yes, think of it as a fee to make a bid. You won't be allowed to make a bid if you don't have the funds to pay for the item if you win. If you do win then the funds for the total price will automatically be deducted from your account. We're thinking of changing this to where you pay when you are ready, much like an eBay auction. Just a matter of gathering more feedback.
You setup a sniper bid when you want the system to automatically bid on your behalf. Basically you tell it at what price you want to start bidding and how many bids you want it to make on your behalf. This is totally the way to do it, it's very unlikely to win the auction with manual bids, precisely because everyone else is using snipers.
Suggestion: Try advertising on some crypto news sites like coindesk, cryptocoinnews, etc most of them do sponsored service, putting on forum is a think of old.
Much appreciated, thanks.
If i can understand correctly from just seeing, site takes a fee of 0.0015 per bid and adds 0.0001 to the value. So, i pay 0.0015 for my each bid, even if i win or lose? Also, if i win i pay the value of the item as well.?

And how does the sniper bid work?

Sorry but you need more trust on this forum first.
We're only giving trusted and senior bitcointalk forum members free BTC because they inherently carry more trust than newbie accounts.

Well I am surprised and glad to say I won an item. I have filled in my shipping details and I am eager to see if it gets delivered.
Not sure what type of shipping, but would be great to get a tracking number. Also where exactly does the item ship from?
