Check out auctions that have ended and look at pricing to determine a median price point, or expected sale price.
The time of day is very important for getting the price you want and narrowing down the competition.
Look for patterns on recent

» Place your bids using a certain strategy; bid early, late or always on top.
» Keep your eyes always focused on the countdown timer.
» Don't bid too late and miss out! (If you do, keep your eye open for that product again, it'll be back.)
» Set a realistic amount you are willing to pay for an item.
» Calculate your winning price so you never step over the line.
» Have a bidding budget and be smart with it.
» Bidding on one product at a time gives you greater power in this auction and you are more likely to end up being the winner than if you use your bids in various auctions.
» Every item on Beezid sells at rock bottom bargain prices, but it is better to start on some of the lower priced products and work your way up.
» Cheaper products tend to have fewer bidders and therefore are more likely to win. Once you get the hang of Beezid and develop your strategy, you're more likely to win the major items.
» Try to concentrate your bidding on one or a few items. Placing bids randomly is not a good strategy.
» When bidding from the Details page, look at the bidding history to see the last 10 bids placed and what type of bid they are.
» Don't use the AutoBeezid at first.
» Be careful when using the AutoBeezid function. Plan and execute the AutoBeezid strategy with care.
» The AutoBeezid is a powerful tool, not only does it allow you to place bids without sitting in front of the computer, but it unnerves the competition who keep seeing the AutoBeezid matching their bids one after the other. The AutoBeezid can often outsmart its opponents simply because they tire and give up on competing against it.
» Use the AutoBeezid to your advantage; leave it on at times when you are away from your PC. It is also a useful tool to exhaust the competition.
» When booking an AutoBeezid, think carefully about when to deploy your Sniper in order to make it count.
» Your Sniper can save you from losing an auction, use it wisely.
» There are better times to bid, and better days of the week to get better deals.
» Think about the time of day that you bid.
» The number of users online at any time changes a lot from minute to minute, hour to hour and day to day. Use this to your advantage.
» Realize that winning is all about good timing.
» Buy large Bid Packs and pay much less per bid.
» Having a large amount of bids in your account will ensure you don't run out of bids when you are in auction and miss out on getting the deal you were bidding on.
» Look for Bid Packs in 'Bid 4 Free' auctions. It costs nothing to bid and you will probably get a better deal than buying the pack out-right.
» Watch the competition. Follow certain users and take notes on who they are, when they bid, why they don't bid, what they bid on and where they are bidding.
» Watch the timer and bid no later than the last four seconds to make sure your bid has time to register. If the counter seems to be reaching zero pretty often, it can mean that there are few users bidding on that item and this gives you an edge by increasing your chances of winning.
» When you become more advanced, switch to our MEGAVIEW to view
auctions. This will allow you to see the maximum amount of live auctions. In all views you can drag and tile each auction box to wherever you want, in any auction screen, so keep your interests together!
