3.  Tell us which item you would like to bid on and we will immediately deposit the number of bids into your account that the item calls for. Contact us at admin@elegant-shopper.com or call us TOLL FREE at 1-877-705-3531

4.  Once the funds are in your account, go ahead and immediately start bidding on the item.  Everyone who joins you in the bidding will each start out with the same number of BidClicks.

5.  All BidClicks submitted by all users will automatically be totalled until the reserve bid amount has been reached at which time the auction will become live.

6.  You will not be charged for any of the "BidClicks" you use prior to the reserve price being met. 

7.  By clicking the EXIT BUTTON you may exit the auction at any time prior to the reserve being met, and you will not be charged for any of the BidClicks you submitted up to that point.  If you intend to leave the auction and do not click the exit button prior to the reserve price being met, you run the risk of being charged for all bids you submitted.  Once you have exited the auction ALL OTHER BIDDERS WILL BE NOTIFIED, you may not re-enter and your account will be re-set to a zero balance.

8.  Once the reserve price has been reached the auction will go live and THE EXIT BUTTON WILL DISSAPEAR.  You will be charged for ALL bids starting with the first bid you submitted up to when the auction closes and a winner is established. 

9.  There will be a nominal charge which will be displayed within each items listing for you to take a SNEAK PEEK at the reserve price.  Having this knowledge will give you an advantage over those who do not wish to use this feature.

10.  The winner will pay the end selling price to Elegant-Shopper.Com.

PRIVATE LISTINGS 

The procedures outlined above in "HOW BIDDING WORKS" will also apply to all private listings.  Elegant-Shopper.Com does not charge you anything to list or to sell your personally owned merchandise.  All cash proceeds obtained through the selling of submitted "BidClicks" on all private listings will go to the owner of the merchandise without deduction.  As its fees for the use of its web site facilities and the administrative functions of its staff, Elegant-Shopper.Com will collect and retain the end selling price of each private listing sold from the auction winner.

Good luck.
