- Which auctions do you cover?
- We monitor major auctions, classifieds, dealers, and marketplaces in each available region. Australia currently includes Pickles, Manheim, Grays, IAAI and Autorola; authorized UK, European and US sources appear as they launch. Listings can include new, used, exotic, government, repossessed, and salvage vehicles. Every alert links to the original listing.
- How fast are the alerts?
- Sites are scanned every 10–15 minutes throughout the week. When a new listing matches one of your filters, the alert goes out immediately — most land within minutes of the car or motorcycle first appearing.
- Do you sell the cars?
- No. We never handle vehicles, bids or payments to auction houses. BidRadar is an independent alerts service — you buy at the auction, from the auction, exactly as you do today.
- Do I need Telegram?
- No. Free Explorer lets you save one search profile and three passive watches, but does not deliver alerts. Starter Hunter adds email and browser push; Pro Flipper adds Telegram; Exotic & Broker adds SMS and webhooks alongside every other alert channel.
- How does the free trial work?
- Each paid plan includes one 14-day trial. A card is required at signup, the full selected plan is available immediately, and the subscription automatically starts billing after 14 days unless you cancel first.
- What counts as a filter?
- One saved regional search: a make, optional model keywords and variants, a year range, a local-currency budget cap, and locations to exclude.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes — billing is monthly and you can cancel from the portal in your dashboard. When a paid plan ends, your filters remain saved, but alert delivery stops until you upgrade again.
- Is the listing data guaranteed accurate?
- Alerts reflect what the auction site published at scan time. Prices and auction details can change at the source — always confirm on the linked listing before you bid.
- Can BidRadar transport vehicles?
- No. BidRadar finds auction listings and sends alerts; we do not arrange vehicles, bids or payments. HaulMatch is our transport marketplace for moving auction vehicles and freight across Australia. Arrange transport with HaulMatch.
