quick auction.com question

[Marci Stein]

I registrered to bid but now have changed my mind and no longer want to bid on the house. 

If i do not bid,will i still get my $2,500  back which they hold on my credit card?  

[Brian Burke]

Yes, you will. They don't charge your card unless you win the bid and default by not completing the purchase. 

They just put a hold on the card until the auction ends. If you aren't the winning bidder (or don't bid at all) the hold goes away.
