Bidding against other Rinkya bidders:

________________________
When bidding against another Rinkya bidder, this system is necessary to allow for more than one bidder on the same item.
It also helps you actually SAVE money.

  1. Closing price on Yahoo Japan is 10,000yen
  2. Rinkya Bidder Abid 11,500 yen on the Rinkya system
  3. Rinkya Bidder B bid 100,000 yen on the Rinkya system
  4. Winner is Rinkya Bidder B with Rinkya closing price of 12,000yen

Commission is on Yahoo Japan closing price of 10,000yen at $25 plus the 2000yen difference from the winning Rinkya bid of 12,000 at $4 per 1000yen
Final Commission is: $33 ($25 base plus $8 internal fee)

Normally if you were to bid against a Rinkya bidder outside the Rinkya system, you would have to pay the 13,000yen closing price.
Almost a $20 difference!!!

Please do not be concerned about bidding against yourself and raising your amount. It is not possible to bid against yourself with the same ID.
