Please, before you bid on the auction items, research what that same item is being sold for at other sites/stores. In my research I found a lot of bids were for more $ than the item is worth. Don't get caught up in the bidding and overpay. Also, please read the SAMS return policy. If your item is delivered damaged, you are able to return within 30 days and you do get a full refund, but they do not offer replacements. -

Sam's Club Auction must be programmed to up the bid by $1 every time someone bids, because the bid is increased by $1 immediately after submittin a new bid. It is too fast to be anything but a programmed response. -

Sam's uses proxy bidding. Ignore the warning above, only bid once. But bid the most you are willing to pay!
