Before listing items, please read our Listing Policy and Prohibited Items List.

Fees
You can list as many different items as you like - there are no upfront fees. All our fees are GST inclusive. A sale fee is charged after a successful auction ends or was purchased using BuyNow. The sales fees are based on a percentage of the final price. Listing upgrade fees apply if you want to upgrade your listing.

Category
Select an appropriate category to list your item. If you want to list in multiple categories, make sure you have multiple quantities of the item. Listing in the wrong category can result in removal of your item.

Title and subtitle
The 'Item title' should be descriptive to allow people to easily find your item. Try to use clear, concise and relevant keywords to describe your item to assist potential buyers when searching. The 'Subtitle' allows you to further describe your item (note the subtitle is not included in search queries).

Duration and start time
Decide on the length of your listing. You can select a 3, 5, 7, 10, 14 or 28 day 'Duration'. (28 days for BuyNow Only and Classified listings). Decide on when to start the item from the drop down list next to the 'Duration' (which also determines at what time it is going to end).
If you change the 'Duration' of a selling item, the new 'Duration' will only take effect when it is relisted.

Auction Start price and Bid Increment
The 'Auction start price' is the price of the item when the auction begins. You should set the 'Auction start price' at the minimum price you would accept for the item.
The 'Bid increment' is the minimum bid amount for each subsequent bid, for example if the start price was $5.00 and the bid increment was $0.20 the first bid would be $5.00, the second minimum bid would be $5.20.
The minimum 'Auction start price' and 'Bid increment' is $0.05
Note: If you want your item to appear in the $1 Auctions list, $10 Auctions list or $50 Auction list, you must set the start price to exactly $1.00, $10.00 or $50.00 respectively and list it as an Auction item (no BuyNow).

BuyNow (optional)
There are four methods of selling an item:
1. Auction Only
2. BuyNow Only
3. Auction with BuyNow Price
4. Classified
You can choose to offer a 'BuyNow' price with either method 2 or 3 ('Auction with BuyNow Price' and 'BuyNow Only') items. Buyers can purchase an item immediately if they are willing to pay the 'BuyNow' price.
When listing as 'Auction with BuyNow Price', the 'BuyNow' option is only available until a bid is placed.

Quantity (when listing as a 'BuyNow Only')
If you have more than one (1) of an identical item, you can enter the 'Quantity available'. Multiple purchases can be made from one or more buyers until all have sold or the listing ends. After each purchase the remaining quantity are relisted as a new item.

Quantity (when listing as an 'Auction')
You can list multiple quantity Auction Style items and the winning bidder can select the quantity desired.

If a seller has more than one (1) of an identical item, they can list it as an Auction Style listing and enter the 'Quantity Available'. The Auction listing will show the 'Quantity Available' and before a bid is placed the following message is displayed.

"This is a multiple quantity auction item. Your bid amount is for ONE unit only.
If you are the winning bidder, you can choose your quantity desired after the auction ends.
Unit price for additional items is the winning bid amount."

The winning bidder will have the option to buy the quantity they desire. For example:

• John has five (5) identical fax machines for sale.
• He lists them as an 'Auction' style listing and enters a 'Quantity available' of 5.
• Bidders can see that there is 5 available.
• Bidders bid for ONE (1) item, but will have the option to buy more if they win.
• Carole bids $125 for one (1), but would like to win four (4) at that price.
• The auction ends and Carole is the winning bidder, she enters the amount she wants in 'Checkout'.
• The price for additional items is the same as the winning bid (1 = $125, therefore 4 = $500).
• Remaining item (i.e. one unit in this case) will be relisted.

Note: We do not offer "Dutch auction".
