    Looks like a hoax site. How can you have an auction to buy ?1000 or a laptop selling for ?1?? I'd be very careful

    The general rule is if it looks too good to be true then it is

        It's because you pay for every bid you make. It's not like ebay where your bids are free.

        THE TRUTH
        The Hillsborough Independent Panel. 12/09/12

        Today's report is black and white.The Liverpool fans were not the cause of the disaster.
        The panel has quite simply found 'no evidence' in support of allegations of 'exceptional levels of drunkenness, ticketlessness or violence among Liverpool fans' and 'no evidence that fans had conspired to arrive late at the stadium' and 'no evidence that they stole from the dead and dying'.

                It is not a hoax site,
                BUT, it is a bit of a con. Because you have to buy your bids, I can't remember how much they are but remember calculating the cost of bidding for an item was very expensive.
                For Example :: If each 1p bid costs 50p then just bidding 10 times cost you ?5 and the other bids that are against you have cost the same, so 20 bids have been registered raising the bid price by only 20p but the bidders have actually paid the auction site ?10 and the winning bidder will also have to pay the winning bid price.
                The low auction price looks enticing but can cost you plenty and you may not even win the item !! So Beware !!
                A winning bid of ?50 has raised 5000 bids, if the bids cost 50p each then the site has made ?2500 plus the ?50 for the winning bid that is how an item valued at ?1000 can be sold for ?50 !!!!
                I just wish I could make money that easily.
