When I’m trying to find interesting auctions to bid on, I really hate when I come across overpriced auctions listed for a million dollars with zero bids. These aren’t really auctions; they are fixed price items!

To avoid this, I recommend searching for auctions with a minimum of 1 bid. This ensures that someone else has already vetted the item and determined it is worth at least the minimum asking price.

More than 75% of the live auctions don’t have a single bid and will likely end unsold. Searching for auctions with at least one bid is a great way to avoid combing through these overpriced fixed price items masquerading as auctions.
