We’re continuing to roll out improvements to the BidRush platform. Below are updates you can start using right away.
Bidder updates
- A minor issue with the page indicator has been resolved. Thank you to Sabrina for bringing this to our attention.
- Sort auction items from low to high. Thank you to Sharon for the suggestion.
- We fixed an issue where auctions nearing close could show “1 day” remaining even when more than 24 hours were left (e.g., 1 day and 15 hours). Now auctions closing in less than 3 days now show both days and hours remaining. Thank you to Cynthia for catching this.
- When connection is lost to the server, it asks user to refresh to restore connection (vs. providing a status that could potentially be an error)
New seller tools
- Catalog can be downloaded as a 'Photo Book' or as a PDF or Excel (from Lot Manager)
- Sellers can now move lots from one auction to another. This helps when splitting auctions or moving unsold items into a future auction. Thank you to Jane for the suggestion. (click on bulk mode in Lot Manager)
- Compact view in the Lot Cataglog
- Sellers can now reset bids in rare cases where a material change is made to a lot description. Sellers can also include a reason for the lot cancellation or bid reset so bidders and watch-listers can be notified.
- Sellers can select other payment methods (if bidder paid by cash/ach/etc.) on invoice (thanks to Jason for this suggestion)
- Shipping address can be copied (thanks to Jess for this suggestion)
- Invoices can be downloaded as PDF (to include in shipping)
- QR lot labels has Store logos!
- Ability to download all first images for an auction (in the marketing tab, thanks to Robin for this suggestion)
- Auto-generate AI marketing copy for multiple platforms (in the marketing tab)
- Add marketing packages to promote your auction (in the marketing tab)
Performance improvements
- Scrolling large auctions in the seller admin view is now faster with optimized virtual scrolling.
