The Heist Manual

How to bid & win

No paddles. No accounts. No bidding fees. Just show up to our TikTok Live and out-bid the room.

  1. 01

    Tune in

    We go Live on TikTok @bidbandits. Follow the account and turn on notifications so you never miss a drop.

  2. 02

    Lot is shown

    Each item is presented on camera with detail shots, grading info, and a starting bid called out by the host.

  3. 03

    Bid in chat

    Type your bid in the live comments — just the number. Bids must beat the current high by at least the called increment.

  4. 04

    Going once…

    When bids stall, the host counts down. Last bidder when the gavel drops wins the lot.

  5. 05

    Invoice & pay

    We DM you on TikTok with a secure invoice. Pay within 24 hours via card, PayPal, or Venmo.

  6. 06

    Insured shipping

    Lots ship within 48 hours, tracked and insured. Coins ship in protective flips; cards in toploaders or graded slabs.

House Rules

A few non-negotiables to keep things fair for everyone in the chat.

  • All bids are binding once acknowledged on camera.
  • Minimum bid increments are called out per lot (typically $1–$25).
  • Sniping is encouraged. Sandbagging is not.
  • Unpaid lots after 48 hours forfeit the win and a 90-day suspension.
  • Authentication is guaranteed. Any disputed lot is fully refundable for 14 days.
