MAC.BID doesn't show you what you're actually paying

The platform has browsing tools โ€” but the real gaps are in cost clarity, deal-specific filtering, and automation.

Hidden True Costs

The buyer's premium, service fees, and taxes aren't shown on listings โ€” you don't know your real cost until checkout.

No Cost-Based Filtering

You can't filter by your actual all-in cost or by what percentage of retail a lot is selling for.

Last Chance Moves Too Fast

Last Chance inventory disappears in seconds. Without automation, the best deals are gone before you can act.

No Brand Filtering

You can't narrow listings to specific brands โ€” so you're scrolling through everything to find what you actually want.

Free tools. Pro power.

Core features are free forever. Upgrade to Pro for advanced filtering and the auto-buy sniper.

โญ Pro Features โ€” $4.99/mo
๐Ÿ’ฒ

True Cost Range Filter

Filter the entire auction feed by your actual all-in cost โ€” not the raw bid price. Set a min and max and only see deals that fit your budget.

๐Ÿ“Š

Max % of Retail Filter

Only see lots selling below a target percentage of retail value. Set your threshold โ€” 50%, 60%, 70%+ โ€” and instantly filter out anything that doesn't hit your margin requirements.

โฑ๏ธ

Auction Ending Within Filter

Narrow the feed to auctions closing within a specific window โ€” 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, or 12 hours. Focus your attention where the action is.

๐Ÿท๏ธ

Filter by Brand

Automatically extracts brand names from listing titles. Filter to the brands you actually resell and stop scrolling through everything else.

  • Brands extracted automatically โ€” no manual setup
  • Multi-brand selection supported
