OpenBid.com is for sale.
Please make offers.
Please make respectable offers in the $x,xxx range.
I have received an offer from a startup company last year for $3,500 that I turned down.
What is an open bid?
An open bid, or unsealed bid, is a bid that is available for all other bidders to see and possibly act upon. These bids may be done through a traditional live auction, where an auctioneer calls out prices as bidders indicate their willingness to pay. Open bids can also be awarded for things like construction projects, where the lowest bidder often gets the contract. Some projects and sales may require an open bid and others may not.
At a traditional auction for merchandise, all bids are open because all bidders can hear or see the offer being made. All bids can be changed as well, provided another bidder bids higher. Eventually, the auctioneer declares a winner when no more bids are offered after a certain period of time has lapsed. The highest open bid is generally declared the winner.
