Branding itself as an online shopping site, Winila offers products in an auction-style model where one can save as much as 95%. Buyers still have the option to directly buy the products at standard retail prices indicated.
The Winila Bidding System
Each 'bid' a buyer places increases the price of an item by a specific set amount. The auction is reset with an additional 15 seconds every time a bid is placed.
However, when the auction time goes below 20 seconds it will never go over 20 seconds again.
All auctions end when the auction clock reaches zero. The final bidder of the product is declared the winner.

If you loose, or was bid out, you still have the option to buy the product with the "Buy It Now" functionality where you can purchase the product for a discount equal to the value of the bids you placed in that auction.
