BIDSTONE is East London's weekly online auction marketplace, connecting sellers with buyers across the Eastern Cape and beyond.
We started BIDSTONE to solve a simple problem: selling quality second-hand goods in East London was too complicated, unreliable, and time-consuming. Facebook Marketplace was flooded with lowballers. Garage sales attracted too few buyers. We built a better system.
Every week, we run timed online auctions where verified items go to the highest bidder. Sellers drop off their items at our facility, we handle the listing, bidding, payments, and collection — and sellers get paid.
We're based in East London, Eastern Cape, and everything we do is focused on building a trustworthy, professional auction experience for our community.
