Automated Multi-Account Smart Bidding Engine for HiBid Auctions

Winning liquidation and wholesale lots on HiBid is a timing game, and humans lose it consistently.

The buyer's team tracked dozens of lots by hand, refreshing pages all day, waiting until the final seconds to bid. They were chronically outbid at the last moment, made expensive impulsive bids, and had to babysit the platform across multiple auction sessions.

• Manual lot tracking across multiple active auctions
• Chronic last-second outbidding on the items that mattered
• No discipline on a maximum acceptable price
• Long hours wasted monitoring screens instead of processing inventory

We built a spreadsheet-driven bidding engine. The team lists target items and a hard maximum bid per lot in Google Sheets, and the system does everything else.

A Playwright automation layer controls multiple auction accounts, rotating residential proxies and browser fingerprints to avoid detection while staying compliant with account rules. It monitors each lot, places incremental bids to stay competitive without driving the price up early, and fires a decisive final bid in the last second while staying under the configured maximum.

• Upload lots and max-bid thresholds from Google Sheets
• Multi-account control with residential proxy and fingerprint rotation
• Incremental early bids to avoid price spikes
• Programmatic sub-second last-minute bids
• Hard cap enforces 100% max price adherence
