Buyer's premium is a fee applied to the winning bid at an auction and is designed to cover various expenses associated with the auction process. This fee typically covers the cost of organizing and conducting the auction, compensates for the loss of the second-highest bidder in case the highest bidder backs off, covers service fees to credit card and payment companies, and is also be used for generating refunds in case of any discrepancies or issues with the auction process. In short, the buyer's premium is a necessary component of the auction process that helps ensure that the auction is conducted smoothly and efficiently while also protecting the interests of both the buyer and the seller. 2) BID IN ADVANCE ANYTIME, LEAVE YOUR MAXIMUM BID TO MAKE SURE YOU WIN AS THE HIGHEST BIDDER! "Bid in advance anytime, leave your maximum bid to make sure you win as the highest bidder" means that as a bidder, you have the option to place a maximum bid for an item before the auction begins or at any time during the auction. By doing so, you are instructing the auction platform to automatically bid on your behalf up to your maximum bid amount in increments against other bidders until either you win the item, or someone else's bid exceeds your maximum bid. For example, let's say you see an item that you really want to buy at an auction. The current bid is $50, but you're willing to pay up to $100 for it. You can place a maximum bid of $100, and if there are no other bidders or if the bidding stays below $100, you'll win the item for the lowest possible price - $50. However, if someone else bids $75, the auction platform will automatically place a bid of $76 on your behalf. If the other bidder continues to increase their bid, the auction platform will keep bidding for you up to your maximum bid of $100. 3) Our return policy is as follows: " Our return policy is as follows: Returns are accepted for orders with a total value exceeding $200. For orders below $200, a return fee of $20 will be applicable. Returns must be initiated within 7 days of the original purchase date.
