FAQs

How can I participate?

All you need is a Twitter account (and a credit card to make your donation if you are a bidder). Bid on items you are interested in by replying to the item tweet. Keep track of the auctions you’re bidding on in case you are outbid. Anyone can bid on an item and anyone can join in and post an auction. You do not need an invitation to participate.

If I have been confirmed as the highest/winning bidder, where do I make the payment?

Donate the final auction amount to the Book Industry Charitable Foundation (BINC) here. You will need a credit card to make a donation to BINC. Then direct message the person auctioning the item and send them proof of your donation in the form of a confirmation email (or screen shot of the email from BINC).

Who are you?
