Tips before bidding

Bidding at Kvdcars is a simple and transparent way to buy a used car. Here are a few tips to help you get started before joining one of our auctions.

Why do we use bidding?

The market value of a used car is constantly changing. Supply and demand, as well as condition and mileage, determine what a buyer is willing to pay for a specific car at a given moment. Through bidding, we let the market set the price, and you never pay more than SEK 500 above what someone else is willing to buy the car for. In other words, you know you’re not paying too much!

How does the bidding process work?

The auction starts at the car’s starting price, and you can choose to place either a leading bid or a maximum bid. With a maximum bid, your bid is automatically increased up to the level you have chosen if someone else places a bid within your bidding range.

How does the auction end?

All cars have a set auction end time. If a new bid is placed just before the auction ends, the auction is extended by 3 minutes and 30 seconds. The auction will continue to be extended as long as new bids are placed.

What happens next?

If your bid is the highest when the auction ends, you will be contacted by us at Kvdcars! We will help you move forward with the purchase, handle all the paperwork, and if you would like a car loan, we take care of all contact with the bank. Didn’t win the car? Hang in there – new cars are published at kvdcars.com every day.
