Reverse Auctions - Love Saving Cash ?


 
Recreation & Leisure
Saving money is a hot topic these days, a topic that is on the minds of many people throughout the world. With the prices of gas, electric, water and even motoring increasing what seems like almost every single day, the need to save has never been greater than now.

The good thing for consumers is that the time to save money is here, and so are the opportunities. Reverse auctions are extremely innovative and fairly new to the internet. They offer people a unique chance to win items at ridiculously low prices.

How it works A lot of people become confused when the phrase "reverse auctions" is mentioned, but there is really no need to be. Traditional auctions start low and finish high, as people slowly bid up the items to the value that they consider to be a good one for them, but also a fair one for the seller.

The reverse auction style format works in a slightly different manner. At the start of the auction, the retail price will be listed. At this point, each individual that wishes to bid on the auction will place their bid. The aim here is the have the lowest unique bid. For that reason, going for £0.01 is not likely to be a good strategy, as a lot of people will have already bid this amount. Bidding weird amounts such as £1.68 or £4.29 will yield much better results in the long term. Of course, determining the amount of bidders, but also the value of the item will help to determine what a good bid amount is likely to be.

How can they finish so low? Many reverse auctions finish at ridiculously low prices. For example, a recent auction online saw a brand new Sony PS3 Slim 160GB finish for £0.35. This is obviously well below the RRP and would have represented a loss for the seller if this was all they received for it. The reality is that the auction websites charge bidders for each bid that they make. Basically, it is down to the strategy of the bidder to try and get the bid that works out to be the lowest unique bid. If they can do this on a regular basis, then they stand to save hundreds and possibly even thousands of pounds. It is easy to see why people that love saving cash love these websites so much.

Conclusion Bidding on a range of different auction items on a regular basis is a great way to save cash consistently, rather than just on a one off occasion. The great thing about reverse auctions is that they allow people to save huge chunks of cash in a very short period of time. Of course, getting a win at such a great price can be more difficult than it first seems, but when it actually occurs, the savings can be huge. This allows people to purchase items that they might not have had the ability to purchase in the past due to the extent of the price. Using them to the advantage of the consumer will ensure that products are purchased on a regular basis at large discounts.
