For a long time, the public has known IBID – Balai Lelang Serasi as a trusted automotive auction platform in Indonesia.This comes as no surprise, since IBID has focused exclusively on used-car auctions since its establishment in 2007.

However, to keep pace with evolving market trends, IBID has begun driving innovation by auctioning lifestyle products—a non-automotive category that is rapidly gaining traction.

The offerings span everything from tech gadgets, electronic appliances, and household essentials to hobby supplies, all available at highly competitive prices through a transparent auction process.

What Is the Lifestyle Product Auction on IBID?

The lifestyle product auction was first introduced in 2014 under the name “gadget auction.” At the time, the inventory was limited to laptops, computers, and smartphones.

As the variety of inventory expanded, the gadget auction was rebranded as the lifestyle product auction in 2022 to better represent its new, diverse product range.

The lifestyle product auction utilizes the Timed Auction method, which comes with the following advantages:

• The auction only lasts for a designated period
• You can directly place your bid without waiting for a specific lot to come up
• This type of auction is more flexible and perfectly suitable for beginners

IBID usually holds its lifestyle product auction in the second or fourth week of each month.

Product Lineup

One major draw of IBID’s lifestyle product auction is its wide array of product variations. Not all the items listed are second-hand goods; many of them are brand-new and factory-sealed. Check out some of them below.
