Live auctions: sell your scrap in 30 minutes

Instead of waiting days, set a time and traders join and compete live for your lot. Every bid appears to everyone instantly, and any bid in the final two minutes extends the auction so nobody can snipe it at the last second.

For sellers

  1. In “Post a listing”, choose Live auction (scheduled).
  2. Pick the day, time and length (15 or 30 minutes, or 1 hour), plus the opening price and minimum increment.
  3. Share the waiting-page link in your groups. Interested traders register and add it to their calendar.
  4. When it ends you see the top bidder’s number, plus the 2nd and 3rd as back-ups. Agree with them, mark the listing sold and issue the recycling certificate.

For buyers

  1. Open the auction before it starts, register, and sign in with Google.
  2. Once it starts, pick an increment (+0.25, +0.50 or +1.00) and tap “Bid”.
  3. If someone outbids you, you get an alert right away and can reply in one tap.
  4. If your bid is the highest at the end, the seller contacts you and you see their number.

Frequently asked questions

Is the top bid binding?

No. The top bid is the best offer the seller received; weight, pickup and payment are agreed between the two parties. If it doesn’t work out with the first, the seller sees the 2nd and 3rd.

What is auto-extend?

If the seller turns it on, any bid in the final two minutes moves the end to two minutes from that bid, so everyone can respond and there’s no last-second sniping.

What is the minimum increment?

The least a new bid must add to the current top bid, set by the seller: 0.25, 0.50 or 1 SAR per kg. The first bid starts at the opening price.

Who sees my phone number?

Your name and bid are public; your phone number goes to the seller only.

Are there fees?

Not right now. Running and joining live auctions is free during the trial period. If we add fees later we will announce them in advance, and they won’t apply to any auction scheduled before the announcement.
