Unique smallest price auction - Percent
Unique smallest price auction - Percent- is a type of auction where the unique one time smallest bid wins. Auction ends when percent reaches 100% and “Auction has Ended” text appears.
- The growth of the percent is following log(x*20) graph
- 100% equals “Retail price” plus our operating fee
-In CentSeller's auction page every bid has a CS credit value. This value is used to calculate the unique smallest price auction percentage. At the moment we don't show users their bid values but it can be calculated as follows: the bid package price divided with the bid amount equals to one bid value. If you win any of our bids auctions, then the bid value is calculated as follows: “Retail price” divided with the bid amount equals to the bid value.
The speed of percent growth depends on how many bidders there are and how expensive is the product. Cheaper auctions can end quite fast, high price auctions may last for weeks.
We believe that the unique smallest price auctions are one of the best auctions in our site because if you win you can be almost 98% sure that you will the best deal.

Auction guide
1.Make sure you are logged in as a registered user in www.centseller.com. If you are not logged in or registered user please click "Login/Register".
2.Make sure you have enough bids for participating in auction. If you need more bids or money for buying bids, please click "My Account" (User menu).

3.Find yourself right product or service you want to bid on ("Unique Auctions - Precent" or "All Auctions").

4.You can participate in every auction on website (even in those auctions which have not begun yet. The time until the beginning of auction will be displayed).
5.After clicking „Bid“ the new window pops up (it may take a little time) where the interval of bids are seen and also the unique smallest price of the Potential Winner. You need to choose a new unique smallest price and click on it. To make your choices easier the system shows your bids in four colours. The color code is shown below the window (grey signs for bids you have made).
Colors are important. Every time you make a bid, you see that bid box will change color.
- GREEN box – shows only if you are the current winner. If someone else bids on the exact same price, the box color will change and this bid can't win anymore as it is not unique.
- ORANGE box - This bid is not the lowest but it's unique. It means that the unique smallest price is somewhere below this bid. If the unique smallest price will change it's location (someone “kills” it ), you have a chance to win with this bid.
- RED box - this bid is not unique and not the lowest. It means that two or more players have already bided on that price. Also it indicates that the smallest unique price is somewhere below this bid.
- BLACK box - this bid is lower but not unique. It means that you can't win with this bid. Also it indicates that the smallest unique price is somewhere higher up than this bid.
6.After you have made your bid the system will automatically show the status of the auction in real time. It will help you find the unique smallest price. If you need more time to think before making your bid, click "Reload Bids" right before you make your bid.

7.If your bid was the unique smallest price you are automatically the Leader of the auction (your Username appears in the Leader’s corner and unique smallest price is seen in green). If your bid was not the unique smallest price you can make another bid until you make the Leader bid.
8.There is a percentage-rate which shows the duration of the Auction. The auction ends when percentage reaches 100 and “Auction has Ended” text appears.

9.Then the system announces the Winner (User, who had the unique smallest price). Winner has the right to buy the product or service with the unique smallest price.

10.The product is available for you to purchase during 14 days after winning the auction. After 14 days your purchasing right will be cancelled.
Useful Strategies:
- When you have already found the unique smallest price, it is advisable to follow the Auction until the end to make sure another User hasn’t made the exact unique smallest price and taken the Leader position. Please remember that the Winner is the User who makes the unique smallest bid last.
- “Killing competitors unique smallest bid” - if you don't see GREEN box it means that someone else has hit the unique smallest bid (and he is the winner at the moment). In order to change that you have to find it, make a bid and then the price is not unique smallest anymore. You might have the price is not unique smallest anymore and you now might have smallest unique price covered if not keep bidding as long when you see GREEN box.
- “Protecting your unique smallest price” - if you see GREEN box it means you are winner at the moment but it might be wise to cover couple of higher bids also so it's harder to find and "kill" your winning bid.
Make bids and enjoy great prices with good entertainment!

Tip of the week
If you are new user or you don't bid on CentSeller very often you should try to bid on “Limited Auctions”.It is much easier to win Limited Auctions because users who have won more than 7 auctions during last 7 days can't bid. Good luck.
