Try The Slightly Different Auction
And Have A Lot of Fun

How Does It Work For You ?

New and high-quality products are listed continuously on SmartWin. You can bid for them at any time within the auction period. You must register as a member in order to bid. You can do this easily by clicking the "Register now" button and by following the subsequent instructions. In order to buy bids, your account must contain credit. Your account can be recharged using a credit card or pre-payment transfer. Each bid costs 0.50 euro. We can offer you the following bid packages:

0.50 euro = 1 bid
5 euro = 10 bids
10 euro = 20 bids
20 euro = 40 bids + 2 free bids
50 euro = 100 bids + 10 free bids
100 euro = 200 bids + 30 free bids
250 euro = 500 bids + 100 free bids
500 euro = 1000 bids + 250 free bids

You can bid using any number of 10 cent units (e.g. 1 euro, 2.10 euro, 3.90 euro...). The user placing the lowest exclusive bid has won.

An example based on the diagram: In this case, several persons have bid the sums of 1, 2, 3.30, 4.40 and 5 euro. The sums of 3.30 and 4.40 euro were each only bid once, whereby 3.30 is the lowest and exclusive bid and would therefore have won the auction. This is no longer an exclusive bid if a further user bids 3.30 euro during the auction period. In our example, the bidder offering 4.40 euro would be the winner, because his bid is now the lowest, exclusive bid.

Please note: some products, such as cars and property, may only be bid for in 1.00 euro units. In such cases, this will be indicated separately within the product description.

It is possible to place single bids, or to cover an entire span of bids. However, in order to guarantee equality of opportunity, only single bids will be accepted in the last five minutes of an active auction.

After each successful bid you are informed if you have submitted an exclusive and/or lowest bid or not. You can also check your bidding status by looking in your member area. If you are underbid at a later point in time, you will, of course, be notified by e-mail and can place another bid, in order to improve your chances.

If an auction does not result in a unique bid at its conclusion/at expiration date, then nobody has won and the auction starts again. If there is a unique bid at the end, the winner with the lowest exclusive bid is determined and then informed by e-mail. The winner can then order and pay the auctioned item in his member area (the prices incl. VAT/Sales Tax, plus forwarding expenses). The goods are shipped as soon as payment has been received.
