How Bidding Works at NexBid.ca Auctions
Pro tip: Auctions use extended bidding to prevent last-second sniping, if someone bids in the final moments, the timer resets!
Buyer’s Premium
There is a 15% buyer’s premium added to the final winning bid.
Example:
Winning bid = $20
Buyer’s Premium (15%) = $3.00
Total = $23.00
This fee helps us keep the auction platform secure and professional.

Shipping Canada Wide and to USA
We are pleased to offer shipping across Canada and the United States for most auction items. Items eligible for shipping will be clearly marked as “Shipping Available” in the lot listing.
SHIPPING WITHIN CANADA
We ship via Canada Post, Maritime Bus, and Purolator, and will always select the carrier that offers the best rate for your shipment.
All shipped orders will incur a handling fee, in addition to the actual shipping cost. This fee covers the cost of packing materials (such as boxes, bubble wrap, tape, and labels) and the time required to carefully prepare your items for safe transit.
We aim to keep fees reasonable while ensuring proper packaging for safe delivery.
Our standard handling fees are:
$5–$10 for small or single-lot purchases
$10–$20 for larger or multiple-lot purchases
Maximum handling fee per bidder: $20
Shipping and handling fees will be clearly listed on your invoice. If you are unsure whether shipping is available on a specific item, please contact us before bidding.
SHIPPING TO USA
We offer Canada Post Expedited Parcel shipping to the United States.
All shipments include tracking and are processed within 2–3 business days of payment. Please note: Duties or import taxes (if applicable) are the responsibility of the buyer.
Shipping and handling fees will be clearly listed on your invoice. If you are unsure whether shipping is available on a specific item, please contact us before bidding. NexBid will not be held liable for any delays or charges incurred at the border.
GENERAL
While we take great care in securely packaging glass items, please note that Canada Post does not insure glass items. Although we've successfully shipped hundreds of fragile items, damage can occasionally occur. Shipping glass is at your own risk, and we cannot offer refunds, exchanges, or credits for breakage during transit.
