Method 1: "Click to Bid"

The "Click to Bid" option is the quickest and most straightforward way to place a bid on an auction item. Here's how it works:

1. Logging In: First, you need to log in to your Nerd Crawler account. If you don't have an account yet, don't worry; just click here to create a Nerd Crawler account.

2. Auction Selection: Visit Auctions on Nerd Crawler to browse available auctions and select the one you're interested in participating in.

3. Bidding Process: Once you're on the auction page, you'll see a large "Bid" button. Simply click on it, and Nerd Crawler will automatically place a bid on your behalf. This bid will be slightly higher than the current winning bid amount.

4. Winning the Auction: If your "Click to Bid" amount surpasses all other bids when the auction concludes, congratulations! You've won the item.

Method 2: Custom Bid

The "Custom Bid" option provides you with more control over the bidding process. Here's how you can use it:

1. Logging In: As with the "Click to Bid" method, you'll need to log in to your Nerd Crawler account.

2. Auction Selection: Choose the auction you wish to participate in and by visiting Auctions on Nerd Crawler.

3. Bidding Process: On the auction page, locate the "Custom Bid" option. Instead of relying on the preset bid increment, you can input your desired bid amount, which must be higher than the current highest bid.

4. Placing the Bid: After entering your custom bid amount, click the bid button. Your bid will be submitted, and if it's the highest bid, it'll go through and you'll see your bid show up.

5. Winning the Auction: If your custom bid remains the highest when the auction ends, you'll emerge as the victorious bidder and secure the item.

Now that you're well-versed in the art of auction bidding on Nerd Crawler, you can confidently participate in any auction that piques your interest.
