How do I that know my bid was accepted?

During the bidding process, you will see the results of your bid on the Preview Bid page. If your bid is the highest, the preview page will inform you that you're the current highest bidder. (This doesn't mean that you've won the auction, only that your bid is currently the highest bid. To win, the auction must close without any higher bids.)

If you're outbid through the automatic bidding process, you'll see this on the preview page. You'll also be asked if you want to bid again.

After placing your bid, you'll receive a confirmation email informing you that your bid has been received. (If you didn't receive an email from Yahoo! Auctions, you may need to edit your contact information. You can edit your contact information by clicking the \"Options\" link, then clicking the \"Edit Contact Information\" link.)

If you're outbid during the life of the auction, we'll let you know via an email alert to your primary email address. If this happens, you'll need to increase your bid to win the auction.

You can use the My Auctions tool to check the status of all your auction activity at any time. Select \"Bidding\" in the My Auctions tool to view all the auctions that you're currently bidding on.
