This is a relativly new site so has only a few users and items up for auction at the moment.

As far as I can tell it is free to use,ie no charge for listing or selling an item,unlike a lot of other auction sites where you have to pay.

It seems pretty straight forward to sell an item and also for buying, everything is in plain english and your taken through each process step by step.

You have to register on this site if you wish to sell or bid on items, and you need to be 18 years or over to register,You must provide your name address and an email address.

You are kept informed by email when your auction is concluded and if you have a buyer on one of your items both the seller and buyers details are provided to each party.

When you Register with this site you are given a contact page , where you can see what items you have for sale and any bids you may have on them,also you can see what items you have bid on, and any item you might be keeping watch on.

To bid on an item, type your maximum bid amount in the box next to the item description, and click the 'Go' button. Your bid must be above the Minimum Bid amount specified in the box.
You will be asked to confirm your bid. Fill in your username and password and click 'Submit' to complete your bid.

Maximum bid and proxy bid are the same thing. To place a proxy bid, just enter the maximum amount you are willing to pay. Automatic bids will be placed for you up to your maximum amount. Using proxy bidding, you can win the item at the lowest possible price.

To Sell an Item ,Indicate the title and description of your item, and select a graphic image from your local hard drive if you wish to upload a picture of the item.

Specify the minimum bid and reserve price (optional) for your auction, and what types of payment you will accept. While this site allows you to specify payment methods.
Choose the category in which your item should be. You may suggest a new category, but you must select an existing category for your new auction.

This site has a feedback system so you can see what sort of person you are dealing with.
It uses a Star rating system to rate users' feedback, with one star being a low rating and a five star being a high rating. You must fill in all form elements to leave feedback. You must choose your star rating, as well as, leave your written comment about the transaction and/or user.

I am a bid user of ebay auctions and compared to this Bulldaog auctions has a long way to go.
Once it gets a few more registered users it may improve but at the moment there isnt a great deal on the site and not a lot of stuff being sold, so if your after selling your stuff I'd use somewhere else for the time being,but as I said earlier,when more people get to know this site it could improve greatly,
the only thing i can see that it has going for it at the moment is that its just for the uk and its free to use.
