| 799937 | 2009-08-10 11:24:00 | http://www.onecentbid.co.nz/ They have something different again where they sell seats for an auction and only those that have a seat for that auction can then bid. You don't pay for each bid but you pay to have a seat and then whatever price you might win the auction for. They pretty much make their money back just by selling all the seats for the auction so anything they get from the actual auction is profit. <---- Just saw my number of posts too :lol: |
