Don't know how the taxes go when winning something like that. If you win it for $0.17 do you just pay taxes on that or is it on the value of the car. Anyone know?

Really cool site though.

From their FAQ page:
quote:

Question: Do I have to pay taxes on the items I win?

Answer: No and Yes. No, you do not have to pay the Sales Tax on the item, UturnBids.com pays them for you. Yes, you may have to claim the value of the item as a prize won and claim it on your taxes. We are not tax attorneys and you should consult a professional regarding this matter.

What prevents me from bidding $1.23 for all four tickets? Is there a floor? I suppose they are hoping that the uniqueness requirement and the sheer volume of bids will cancel out low bids, but it won't always work out that way. What incentive does a seller have to use this site?

What happens if there are no unique bids?

I know, in theory, there would be ONE (and it would likely be fairly high), but what happens if there are none...does nobody win?

It tells you the number of unique bids. If I logged on and it said 0 I would just start making up larger amounts that I'd be willing to pay right before the auction ended

First Winners posted. Looks like $100 gift card was won for $0.06 and the $50 card was won for $0.30. WOW! Can't believe such low bids won.
