bullet gif  How much are delivery charges?

Delivery cost depend on the item or items we are sending, how much they weigh, how large they are, their value and, of course, where you are. In order to keep costs down we try to group items together so they can go in a single package, obviously this is not always possible especially with large items. To give you a guide here is the table that we use to calculate delivery charges.

bullet gif  How long will my item take to be delivered?

It depends on where you live. In the UK items will be delivered the day after they are posted. We use a special delivery service that tracks and insures all goods for the amount that was paid for them. European countries may have to wait a week or two for their items to arrive but again all items are traceable and insured. Other Countries may have to wait up to 12 weeks, although this is very rarely the case. The goods usually arrive within 2 weeks. Again, where possible, we insure and are able to track the item.

bullet gif  Do I need to be here when my item is delivered?

No. But you will receive a delivery note for you to pick the parcel up from the nearest Post Office Head Quarters.

bullet gif  How do I know my item is 100% authentic?

Every item is issued with a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). This is a lifetime guarantee of authenticity and should be kept with your new purchase in the event you may wish to sell it at a later date. We welcome any queries or any enquiries at any time and we will also guarantee you a 100% refund if, for any reason, you are not totally satisfied with any aspect of your purchase including the service.

bullet gif  How do I find out, which items are going to be auctioned in the future?

Once you have registered with bid4sport we will send you details of up and coming auctions, competitions etc… wherever relevant.
Top


bullet gif  How can I leave a maximum bid (Proxy Bid)?

Placing a maximum bid (proxy bid) can be a great way to make sure you get those items you really want. Simply place the maximum amount you wish to bid up to. We will then automatically bid on your behalf as other bids are placed. Don't worry though! We will only place the smallest bid necessary for you to become the top bidder.

For example, if the item is currently at £50 you could place a maximum bid of £80. (Bids must be a multiple of the minimum bid increment). The system will immediately place a bid of the minimum increment on your behalf and will bid against any other bids until you have won the item or your maximum bid is reached.

Another example, if there is a current bid of £25 showing, but it is the result of Bob's £50 max bid. Michelle places a max bid of £60, the new current bid will be £51, The amount need to beat Bob's max bid.
