Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Can my husband & I use the same bidder number?
A: Yes.
Q: What do I do as my phone’s battery is about to die and I want to keep bidding?
A: Pick up one of our devices if available or set your max bids so you don’t lose anything and look for staff to check status.
Q: I need to go out to the car, can I bid from there?
A: Yes if on our ‘bidp.co’ site. No if on the bid partner network but just reconnect when you come back in the event area.
