# Bidding Common Questions

**Getting Started with Bidding**

To get started on our auction site, we highly recommend you review our [Auction Help guide](https://compucycle.com/auction-help/). The guide includes detailed information about signing up, placing bids, and using our auction account tools.

**What days do you have live auctions?** 

Our live auctions start on Sunday and close on Thursday afternoon (CST). Be sure to place your bids before the auction closes, as all bidding ends on Thursday afternoon. 

**Does Compucycle have bulk product that it sells outside of the auction lots?**

No, all Compucycle’s tested working products are sold in bulk through the auction on our website at [www.compucycle.com/shop.](http://www.compucycle.com/shop)

**Can I email my offer to you?**

No, an offer has to be made on the auction site.

**Is the current highest bid always shown on the site during an auction?**

Yes, the highest bid is always visible.

**Are your bids take-all or can I bid per line item?**

Currently, our auction lots are take-all offers only. If you have feedback for our team on separating lots, please contact us directly at bids@compucycle.com.
