Checking the Status of Your Bids

Wondering whether you're currently winning, outbid, or what you’ve bid on?

You can easily view your bid activity from your HiBid account.

Here’s how to check:


1. Go to the “Bids” Section

  • Make sure you’re signed in to your HiBid account.

  • Click the “Bids” button located near the top of the page (next to your name and the Watch List).

This page will display all lots you’ve placed bids on.

2. Review Your Bid Status

For each item, you’ll see:

  • Current bid amount

  • Whether you are the high bidder, outbid, or if the auction is in sealed bid mode

  • The remaining time for the auction

You can click on any item to return to the lot and place another bid.

3. Use the Filters and Sorting Options

The Bids page includes tools to help you organize your view:

  • Refresh
    Updates your bid list in real time.

  • Auctions Filter
    Narrow your view to bids from a specific auction.

  • Status Filter
    View only bids that are winning, outbid, sealed, or closed.

  • Bid Totals by Status
    Shows a quick summary (e.g., how many you’re currently winning).

    • Green = Winning

    • Yellow = Sealed Bid

    • Red/Gray = Outbid or Closed

  • Sort
    Organize bids by time, price, auction, or other criteria. You can sort in ascending or descending order.

4. Print or Export Your Bids

If you want a copy of your bidding activity:

  • Click “Print” to generate a printable version of your bid history.

Tips

  • Check often. Bidding status can change quickly, especially near auction close time.

  • Enable email alerts so you’re notified when you’re outbid.

  • For sealed bid auctions, you won’t know if you’re winning until the auction ends.
