We promise to provide exceptional customer service and products to our customers. At Bidoction, our goal is to maintain the highest ethical standards. We believe that top notch customer service and conducting our business in an honest way is the only path to success.

We run anywhere from 10 to 30 auctions, depending on the time of the week. On weekends we usually expand our hours to accommodate our users’ schedules and the expanded auction numbers. Our auctions usually run from 3PM to 11PM EST.
Many of your auctions are giftcards. Do you auction other items as well?
Yes, that is correct, we normally offer $25 and $50 “Your Choice” gift cards. We like to give our bidders the flexibility to choose from a large list of brand names. Occasionally we offer cooking gear like ice cream makers and grills. Other items includes some personal electronics, computer peripherals and fashion jewelry. There is no set schedule for these offers, but we try to get these auctions in every once in a while.

Bids cost $0.50 per bid. We have Bid Packs that run from $25 to $500 (50 to 1000 bids).

We sincerely hope that the users will get a great price and top-notch service. As our mission statement says, we do want to run a First Class Business in a First Class Way. Our customer service is prompt and we work tirelessly to resolve any and all issues that the users might have. We also provide a stable bidding platform as we have acquired one of the most stable penny auction scripts in the penny auction industry.
