CLOSED: 2006 - 2015 UK-based Bidson also offered auctions The Netherlands, Germany and Sweden. Starting in 2006, Bidson offered various types of auctions before offering penny auctions in 2012. Bidson acquired BidRivals on May 25, 2012. Towards the end of 2015, the company's site was returning errors. Then in January 2015, a letter was posted on bidson.com: Dear Bidders, We are currently working on new Payment Gateway for our services. Offering more local payment methods with lower fees than Paypal. The changed regulations and higher reserves at Paypal caused a lot of delays in our services. We promise that ALL commitments will be honored and we are NOT leaving the business! We are also launching a better product range and fast international shipping methods. Operating with local suppliers in Sweden, Norway, Netherlands, Germany and United States. Sorry for the problems this may have caused you.
