How the Auctions Work

With each bid placed, the price of the item on which the user is bidding increases by a small preset amount (10 paisa INR to 100 RS INR). Each new bid resets the remaining time for an auction up to the amount specified for the Auction Type (usually 10, 20, 30, 50, and 60 seconds or up to 10 Minutes as specified for that particular auction).
An auction closes when no more bids are received by BidAndBuy’ servers. The countdown time is indicated for each auction. Due to the time it takes for bids to reach BidAndBuy’ servers, and in order to allow all users the same opportunity to bid regardless of geographic location, BidAndBuy’ servers will wait for an additional 5 seconds for any placed bids to reach BidAndBuy servers before closing the auction.
The user who was the last to place a bid wins the auction and can purchase the product.
Bids become valid when they are entered in the BidAndBuy database and registered in BidAndBuy’ system. BidAndBuy is not responsible for disruptions in the user’s connection and errors that may occur as a result of this. This includes, but is not limited to, incorrect countdown of the remaining time, outdated information on bidders, and bids.

Acceptance of the Win - Payment

Once an auction is closed, the winner, goes to My Account for information on the total price, including shipping costs, and payment options. Once the auction is closed, the winner has 15 days to pay the total price of the product, by following the steps indicated on the website. After confirming the win and paying the amount due, the winner will receive a confirmation e-mail. BidAndBuy will ship the product within 21 days after payment confirmation is received. The buyer must also provide an accurate delivery address on the account, before BidAndBuy can ship the product. After BidAndBuy has shipped the product, it will take a few days for it to reach the buyer.
If an auction win has not been confirmed and paid within 15 days, the order will be void and cancelled, spent bids will not be refunded.

Delivery

Unless otherwise specified, delivery will be made from our supplier’s warehouse to the registered address provided by the User.
As BidAndBuy works with trusted delivery partners to ensure the best possible service and widest reach, all delivery estimates are for information only and do not constitute binding agreements. Obvious damage to the item or packaging during transit should be reported to the carrier by the winning user, if the item is damaged it should be refused, not signed for. If you wish to claim for concealed defects or damage after signing for an item, you must inform us about the damaged or faulty goods within 3 days of receipt. BidAndBuy cannot accept responsibility for damaged or faulty goods once 3 days have lapsed. In all cases you must inspect your item either at the point of or immediately after delivery. Failure to raise a query with BidAndBuy, concerning a damaged or incorrect item within 3 days of delivery constitutes acceptance of the item as is. BidAndBuy does not accept liability for damage or failure of products due to neglect or misuse by the recipient. In the event that BidAndBuy’s delivery partners are not able to deliver the item within a reasonable time, BidAndBuy shall be entitled to offer the winning User a substitute item with comparable or better features, or to set aside the contract through recission and offer a refund of any payments received for the auction item. This does not affect the User’s statutory rights.

Returns - Refunds

The product will be delivered to the address specified by the user. All technical service and product support matters must be taken up directly with the manufacturer according to their terms. In case of cancellation of an order, only the purchase price will be refunded. So, shipping costs and spent bids will never be refunded. This policy applies both to auctions and Buy Now option. If you decide to return a product/item, BidAndBuy will not refund the value of the placed bids of a purchased product/item.
