FOR BUYERS

Register to bid

Registering is free. Auction law asks us to know who every bidder is, so we need your name, contact details and, before your first bid, your ID number and address. Only the Bid Budi team that checks bidders sees them — never the facility, and never other buyers.

ONLY IF YOU ARE A REGISTERED DEALER

The Second-Hand Goods Act (6 of 2009) says people who repeatedly buy units to resell are dealers, and dealers must register with the police (SAPS). If you are registered, tick the box. It is kept with your bids and does not change how you bid.

I am a registered second-hand goods dealer

DEALER REGISTRATION NUMBER · OPTIONAL

I accept the platform terms, and that each auction follows the Rules of Auction shown on that auction, under section 45 of the Consumer Protection Act. Who does what, in plain words.
