At Beezid, we always do our best to ensure that each one of our members has an equal opportunity to become one of our lucky winners and that not only a limited few keep winning. One way to make sure of this is by limiting the number of auctions a user can win within a 28 day period. Products have their own limits based on the Auction Group they belong to. To make it easy, each group is represented by a colored Lock.
Auctions marked with a RED lock are limited to a maximum of 1 wins of this type within a 56 day period.
Auctions marked with a BLUE lock are limited to a maximum of 2 wins of this type within a 28 day period.
Auctions marked with a PURPLE lock are limited to the default maximum of 4 wins of this type within a 28 day period.
Auctions marked with a GREEN lock are limited to the default maximum of 6 wins of this type within a 28 day period.
Auctions marked with a BLACK lock have no limit to the number of auctions that you can win for this type within a 28 day period.
A New lock has been added for a limited time. Auctions marked with a PINK lock are limited to a maximum of 3 wins of this type within a 24 hour period
When Viewing the Details Page of any item, you will notice one of the colored lockes shown above.
Each lock represents an auction group with specific limitation rules. Above you’ll find more info for each group.
The general rule, of winning a maximum of ten auctions within 28 days, means that although you have a cap on the amount of auctions you can win, you can still strategically bid on more auctions than you are actually permitted to win in order to increase your possibilities of reaching an increasingly successful outcome, as long as when you have placed the bids, you haven't reached your cap. For example: you have 3 auctions left in your cap, you can bid on more than three auctions until you reach your cap. Should you be the highest bidder in more auctions than you have left to win, Beezid will allow you to purchase the items you have won in auctions. Once you have reached your cap, you will no longer be able to bid on items with auction limitations. As a reminder, once you've won 7 auctions within a 28 day period, you will receive an alert message on your Beezar .
Remember, as soon as you win an auction, one of those ten auction spots becomes unavailable for 28 days. Once the 28 days are up, that auction spot frees itself up for more bidding. In the event that you've reached your monthly cap, we also have an auction group that does not have limitations so there is still plenty of action to choose from.
** Members can also remove locks by winning special auctions labelled Lock-breakers. This product will allow you to bid on and claim an auction from a lock category that you were previously locked out of. For more information on Lock-breakers, click on Help -> Auctions -> Lock-breakers.
For a more detailed view of your limits, including the auctions you've won, click on the My Account tab -> Auctions -> My Auction Limits.
