when you bid for something on EBAY, and your the only one does that mean that you got it?

Question

because i'm currently in the running for tickets to a conert and the starting price was .99 cents and i only bid 2 dollars so, does that mean that i automatically get it?

Answer 1

First you must wait until the auction is over. Many people have already said this, but it is still important. What nobody has mentioned so far that could also prevent you from winning this auction is if there is a reserve price and it is not met. A reserve price is a minimum amount the auction must end at for it to be valid. Any price below the reserve price makes the auction void. Sellers use this to protect themselves. If the auction ends and you are the highest bidder, reserve met(if there is a reserve), and the seller is legitimate, you won.

Once the time is up, if you are still the only bidder, then you will "win" that auction absolutely. Someone may outbid you at the last minute though. I would place another higher bid. That does not mean that you will pay that bid, but if another person bids too, then you won't automatically lose the tickets, because you have a higher bid that will automatically place itself. Make sense? At any rate, check how much time is left and watch it carefully especially during the last 30 minutes or so.

Good luck!!!!!

Answer 3

You have to wait till the auction ends, also it could be yours if theres a Buy Now option, which is usally over-priced, but an alternative to waiting a week or so on a small auction.

Answer 4

somtimes there is a reserve price and if the reserve price ( the lowest price the person will take for the item) has not been met then they do not have to sell you the item. But if you win the item you will get an e-mail notification about it. HOPE YOU WIN !!!!

Answer 5

No, not until the end of the auction
