    Hi
    Looking for insight / opinion to reverse auctions / lowest unique bid wins auctions.

    I have seen alot of these and was wondering:

    If someone pays to enter into such an auction, usually via SMS, does this mean that the operator of the auction needs a gaming license (in the UK).

    for example
    http://www.TheCheapestBid.com is a patented system that allows the lowest unique winner to get the product...
    the system is such that a Gaming License is not necessary...
    btw- they only have GAS Cards and Gift Cards that you can bid on...:cool:pretty cool!
