How to Bid on Cars at A Better Bid Auction
Experience the excitement of our online automobile auction by placing bids in real-time during virtual live auctions, placing pre-auction preliminary bids, or instantly purchasing our "Buy It Now" cars.
Live Bidding
Experience the rush of live auctions! Live bidding allows members to place bids live during an in-progress auction against other bidders to become the high bidder and win. Live online auctions run daily in real-time at A Better Bid auction.
Preliminary Bid
Preliminary bidding, a.k.a pre-bidding, is a useful bidding method for bidders who don't have time to participate live. You can pre-bid by placing incremental value bids on cars before live auctions start, which will be represented during the live auction.
Buy It Now
Skip the auction and instantly win a vehicle without it ever going into the live auction with our "Buy It Now" option. You will find many "Buy It Now" cars for sale at ABB for set prices, which can be yours in minutes.

Tampa United States
Hands down the best marketplace for salvage cars I’ve used so far. This site is easy to use, the bidding process is incredibly simple and it's so exciting to be a part of a live auction, there’s nothing quite like it. I’ve now bought 4 cars with you and I’m really satisfied with everything, especially the customer service, they’re so easy to work with and answered all my questions.
