LinkAdage™ Auctions Tips and Advice

It is important to realize that all LinkAds are sold in monthly terms. So if the price of a LinkAd is $20 per month, and there is a minimum 3-month LinkAd term, the minimum bid will automatically convert to $60. After a few bids or listings you'll get used to this concept.

Sellers and buyers should pay close attention to the Web Site Metrics section. It is in this area where you can gauge the true value of a link on a web site. Remember that it's not all about PR, there are many other factors that go into the value of a LinkAd on any particular site.

Tips for Buyers

Buying merchandise through LinkAdage Auctions™ is an unique experience. This section gives you advice about how to best use LinkAdage Auctions™ as a buyer.

Understand the Item You Bid On

LinkAdage Auctions™. strives to gives sellers the ability to describe their site without revealing the URL. Therefore, if a description of an item is unclear, be sure to clarify the item description with the seller before you bid.

Protect Yourself From Fraud

Most of the LinkAds for sale on LinkAdage Auctions™ are offered by private individuals. As such, these sellers are unregulated which makes protecting yourself from fraud extremely important. Pay with credit card if given the choice. PayPal now offers a way for buyers to pay with their credit card even if they are not members. Pay attention to feedback ratings and ask questions.

Remember, LinkAdage Auctions™ is only a venue and we do not represent the ability of a seller to complete the transaction or the quality of the items. Auctioneers caught practicing deceptive selling will be banned. However, as with all auction sites, a dishonest person can sometimes get at least one auction up.

Be Courteous To Other Users

Treat other members with courtesy, especially via e-mail. Remember, new buyers and sellers come to this site everyday. It is in everyone's interest to treat the with respect so the keep coming back. Be sure to treat everyone with the courtesy that you expect to receive.

Proxy Bidding

Bidding only once can be the best way to be sure you are not outbid. LinkAdage Auctions™ uses a proxy bidding system, which means that LinkAdage Auctions™ will bid for you based upon the maximum bid you specify. When you specify your maximum bid, LinkAdage Auctions™ records that amount, but bids only enough to outbid the previous high bidder or to meet the reserve price if there is one. If someone outbids your current bid, LinkAdage Auctions™ immediately increases your bid only enough to outbid the new bid. This continues until someone exceeds your maximum bid.

The best reason to use this method of bidding is that you'll never be outbid at the last minute by someone, and not have enough time to place a new bid before the auction ends. If your preset maximum is outbid by someone, you probably didn't want to spend the money anyway, so you won't suffer the disappointment of having the auction close before you can get back to increase your bid.

Make Note Of Auction Details

Write down the username of the seller, the auction number, the item description, and the time, date, and price you bid on the item. Then contact the seller as quickly as possible to begin completing the transaction if you are the high bidder.
