You’re asking if there’s a way to place a bid on an ebay item over the phone? :?:

How would you know about an item if you weren’t on the website looking at it and thus able to also put in a bid?

My guess is there’s something you want but are worried about being sniped and want to put in a new bid but can’t get to a computer? The answer to that is you should have put in a higher max bid.

There are some services that involve mobile phones… like notification of being outbid, I think…

But without doing a more in-depth look, I don’t know if there’s such a option to bid over the phone… it’s not like a auction at Christie’s where you have an actual Auctioneer keeping track of the bids.

You can download an app for some phones but that is it.

There’s only SMS updates on if you want to bid again (If you already bid) or if you’re outbid.

At least that’s all I know if anyway.

Also if you’re on a computer now, and you’re asking us about eBay…why not just use eBay on the computer you’re using now?
