General Disclaimer

The information provided by BidHalf (“https://www.bidhalf.com”) is for general informational and educational purposes only. All information on the site is provided in good faith; however, we make no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, adequacy, validity, reliability, availability, or completeness of any information on the site.

Confirm the Real Numbers

Calculator results and guidance on BidHalf are informational only and may be incomplete or out of date. The true cost of a win and the economics of a resale depend on figures that vary and change: buyer’s premiums, sales tax, shipping and insurance, import and handling charges, and selling-platform fees differ by auction house, marketplace, and location. Before you place a bid, complete a purchase, or list an item for resale, confirm the current premiums, taxes, shipping quotes, and fees with the auction house, marketplace, or platform involved, and read their terms of sale.

Not Professional Financial Advice

Content and tools on BidHalf, including the Maximum Bid Calculator, Auction Fee & Buyer’s Premium Calculator, Bid Increment & Proxy Bid Table, Deal Savings & Discount Calculator, Total Cost-to-Win Estimator, and Resale Profit & Margin Estimator, are for educational and informational purposes only. They do not constitute professional financial, tax, legal, or investment advice of any kind. The figures our tools produce are general estimates, not guarantees. Reselling and buying at auction carry financial risk, including the risk of loss.

Tool Accuracy and Limitations

Calculation Accuracy

Our calculators provide estimates based on standard auction and retail conventions, the figures you enter, and widely accepted formulas. Results should be used as starting points and planning aids, not absolute values or guaranteed outcomes.

Factors Affecting Accuracy

Actual results may vary significantly due to:

• Fee Structures:Buyer’s premiums, flat lot fees, and selling-platform fees differ between houses and marketplaces and change over time.
• Tax & Shipping: Sales tax rules, shipping quotes, insurance, and import or handling charges depend on the item, its size and fragility, and where it is going.
• Market Conditions:What an item truly sells for — and how quickly — depends on demand, condition, and timing.
• Measurement Factors: Self-reported figures, rounding, and estimation.

Our Recommendations

• Use tool results as starting points and planning aids, not absolute values.
• Confirm premiums, taxes, shipping, and fees with the source before you commit.
• Check an item’s real market value against independent sources, not the seller’s “was” price.
• Keep records of what you actually paid so you can check whether a deal was a deal.
