uTurnbids.com is a new sponsor for TigerDroppings.com. uTurnbids.com uses a reverse bid auction system. Here's how it works:
The lowest, unique bid wins the auction. You buy the item for the cost of your winning bid. Bid as many times as you would like before the auction ends. It costs $1 per bid.
Example:
Person A bids $4.13
Person B bids $5.01
Person C bids $4.13
Person D bids $6.40
Person B would win because he had the lowest bid, and no one else bid that amount.
Featured Auction:

I hate to correct Mutha clucker, (not really , I love it) but your example is incorrect. 4.13 would not be "unique."
You have to be the only one to bid the lowest amount.You have to "neek" up on it.

I just bid less than you.
Posted on 11/6/08 at 9:17 am to Chicken
so whats the catch? if you bid 2.01 and win...how much will you actually pay in the end?
Posted on 11/6/08 at 9:21 am to employeeofthemonth
Looks like you would pay $2.01 and the $1.00 bid cost. In order to make money then, there needs to be a large # of bids. Too bad I can't see a "bid history." 
Posted on 11/6/08 at 9:22 am to employeeofthemonth
quote:$2.01 plus $1 for the bid.

it tells you how many people have made bids. Therefore, if you bid .01 though .99 you would spend less than $100 and would more than likely win the tix...

Nobody else bid 0.01 ok, Thanks.

I went one amount under $1 and one amount over. We shall see what happens.
