 |
eBay.co.uk is the biggest auction brand in the UK and so attracts lots of buyers and sellers. However, seller fees are increasing which may mean sellers use other auctions in the UK. |  |
 |
CQout.com (pronounced 'Seek You Out') claims to be the 'UK's 2nd largest online marketplace' and they do have around a million listings for sale. |  |
 |
eBid.net is hot on the heals of eBay and CQout in the UK, thanks to being free to list stuff for sale. | |
 |
Preloved classifieds is a good option for sellers as it's free to list. | |
 |
Swoopo (previously TeleBid) is an online auction with a twist as buyers pay a small amount to bid but can get new goods at cheap prices. | |
 |
Flutteroo is similar to Swoopo but has 3 types of auction, including lowest unique bid. Join now for a bidding bonus. | |
 |
Madbid.com is a penny auction site where you pay to bid. Madbid claims to have a 98% discount, on average, over high street prices. | |
 |
Quick2Bid.com is another penny auction site specifically for the UK and has a good selection of prizes to bid on. Get £2 just for registering. | |
 |
Wish Foundation Charity Penny Auctions is a new UK penny auction site championed by Amanda Holden, with proceeds going to help terminally ill children. Register now before it gets too popular in order to take advantage of the current offers. | |
 |
Auction Air offers 2 types of sealed-bid online auctions - High Bid Auctions (where the highest bid wins) and Lowest Bid Auctions (where the lowest unique bid wins). Good auction as you only pay what you are prepared to pay. | |
 |
Total Bids is a free auction site in the UK but needs more buyers. | |
And it's always worth checking Amazon Marketplace for bargains.
 |
Amazon almost always has cheap stuff for sale in their Marketplace. Always worth checking as a comparison with the auction sites. | |
