Pagination Broken

Please fix your scrolling pagination issue on live auctions. You have 1500+ auction but can only see the first 30 or so is pointless

App needs a major redesign

App truly sucks

The auctions never load no matter how many times you refresh

When you pick out the years it never shows you all the cars in those years so you end up missing a few

Great app with one important flaw

I love the BaT app and use it every day. However I have noticed that routinely, the app will omit will often omit periods of time such that comments and bids are not updated. Not only are they not shown in real time, which is a problem if I’m bidding on something, but the comments and bids sometimes NEVER show up and more recent ones simply start showing up. This means any time I really want to bid on something I have to be at a computer. Would be great to rectify this to improve functionality.

Fix some bugs

I go to view all auctions and it only lets me view a few and it won’t let me keep scrolling. Fix this

Scrolling Issues After Recent Update

I am having issues with scrolling through listings since the most recent update. I am unable to see more than 40-50 listings before getting a message to go back to top. Current listings are around 1240 but can’t see them anymore.

FAQ

What kind of vehicles can I find on Bring a Trailer Auctions?

You can find a wide variety of classic, collector, and enthusiast vehicles. This includes off-roaders, track cars, domestic and foreign makes, motorcycles, vintage RVs, re-creations, kit cars, boats, and automobilia. The platform aims to mirror an eclectic taste in vehicles.

How does the bidding process work?

Bidding is transparent with no surprise fees. The buyer fee is 5% of the final bid price, with a minimum of $250 and a maximum of $7,500. Any additional dealer fees required by the seller will be clearly stated in the listing. The app offers sniping protection, extending the auction clock by two minutes each time a bid is placed at the end.

Is the app free to use?

The app itself is free to download and use for browsing and bidding. The monetization comes from buyer fees on successful auction purchases. While the description doesn't explicitly detail in-app purchases for features, the presence of ads suggests a 'free with in-app purchases' model where ads might be removable or premium features could be offered.

What are the benefits of the community on Bring a Trailer?

Bring a Trailer has a knowledgeable and active community of over 900,000 users and 400,000 registered bidders. This community helps vet each listing, allowing potential buyers to bid with confidence. You can easily tag other users in comment threads to keep conversations going.

How can I stay updated on auctions I'm interested in?

The app provides custom alerts and notifications, including push notifications and an Activity Feed. You can stay up to date on your favorite topics, receive updates when a seller adds photos, when your favorite models go live, or when you've been outbid. You can also save auctions, makes, models, categories, eras, and origins to your Watchlist.
