“In addition to raising funds for Women In Distress, we expect the auctions to be a lot of fun for the members. Many of WID’s members haven’t tried this type of auction before – it can get very exciting!” – Cindy, co-founder of PulseAuction.com
PulseAuction.com is unique because of their strict no “per-bid-fee” policy. Once an auction is unlocked, participants can bid on the item as many times as they’d like without any additional fees. This patent pending system is in direct contrast to the wildly popular and heavily criticized penny auction model of charging for each bid placed. According to Scherer, “It’s more transparent, and fair to our customers. You know what you’re getting into and the hidden fees don’t pile up.”
