BattleBids.com makes bidding on eBay auctions more fun and interactive! Important note: When bidding with Galactic Bidder, you are agreeing to the same policies as when you bid directly on eBay.     eBay Rules for Buyers

In order to place your bid using Galactic Bidder, you will need to sign into your BattleBids account from within the game itself. If you don't have an account you can get more information and sign up here. Battlebids does not require your eBay password. We are a certified eBay developer and use eBay tokens to bid on your behalf.

In Galactic Bidder, each space ship on the screen represents a unique bidder in the auction. When you bid, you will have your own ship that represents you. Hover over any of the other space ships to see more information on that bidder, including their current bid amount. You can also view more information on the item via the bar at the bottom of the game.

When you first hit the "Play" button in the game, the game will display all previous bids that have already occurred. This is just like viewing the eBay bid history page to view what bids have already been placed, but you'll be seeing the action in the Battlebids game! You will know the game is in the "playback mode" when you can still see the "skip history playback" button at the top of the game.

When you are ready to bid and have signed in, enter your bid amount and select an action from the action options on the right side of the game. For example, select the "UFO Attack" action and if you become the high bidder, a UFO will appear and shoot the current lead bidder out of the sky! Your space ship will then travel into the lead position as you are now the high bidder. In addition to selecting an action, you can also select a "taunt". This "taunt" will be displayed within the game if you do pass another racer in the game.

Have fun showing off the actions and taunts you used by sending the replay of the bidding history of your auction to a friend! Select the "send replay to a friend" option from within the game or at the end of the game, when the auction is over.
