In a world where a new smartphone is released seemingly every day, we are definitely spoilt for choice. However, if you want the latest and greatest flagships, chances are you have to fork out upwards of RM3,500 just to get the entry-level variant. Yikes!
The same applies to other branded gadgets such as smartwatches, game consoles and more too. They’re all so good, but so mahal weh! Well, there are actually ways to purchase these items for way below market price and we’ll be discussing them in full below.
Let’s dive right in!
1. How people usually buy flagship items for below the market price

One way of doing so is through online auction sites. Through these auction sites, you are able to:
- Browse for items that you are interested in and find low-priced hidden gems for amazing deals.
- Bid for said items which will then increase the price by a certain amount.
- If your bid was the final one before the timer ends, the item is all yours!
2. Why this method is flawed and could potentially get you scammed

However, things aren’t as rosy as it sounds. There are many glaring problems with these conventional online auction sites where you might have even encountered some unpleasant experiences first-hand.
Aren’t you frustrated when:
- You end up paying higher than the retail price for an item because of a bidding war.
- The goods on auction are found to be counterfeit.
- The items aren’t actually new but are pre-owned or refurbished.
You are not alone!

v) Once the timer hits zero when no additional bid is placed, you will be the winner!
vi) As a winner, you can then choose to either:
Pay for the final auction price of the item and get it delivered to you,
OR
Cash-in the winning product at 85% of the retail price!
- If you choose to get the item delivered, do note that BIDEEFY only delivers to addresses within Malaysia.
- If you choose to cash-in on the item, 85% of the item’s stated retail price (minus final auction price) will be transferred to your bank account.
5. What happens if I didn’t win the BIDEEFY auction though?
Worry not, once the auction is over and you’re not the winner, you can always use the ‘BUY NOW’ option that lets you:
- Buy the item you bid for at its retail price MINUS the bids that you’ve spent during the auction!
- Each bid will be calculated at RM1.50 if you go with the ‘BUY NOW’ option.
- For example, if you spent 10 bids on the item, you get to buy the item through BIDEEFY with an RM15 discount.
Now, that’s a pretty awesome compromise on not winning the auction, don’t you think?
Awesome! Such an amazing concept that solves a lot of concerns we consumers have about buying branded tech items. From a Malaysian homegrown company some more weh, really impressive!
