To play Bid, Bluff & Buy, you don't have to "know the facts" to win. . . you just need to be able to bluff, cajole and have fun. The game consists of 20 different auctions in five different genres: Music, Movies, Television, Sports and History. Players begin each auction with $30,000 and try to accumulate the most wealth by buying items in the auctions with the highest value. The items in this game were actually sold in a real auction and the Estimate, Opening Bid and Sold Price were the prices recorded at the auction on the date identified on the card and in the catalog. Whoever has the most wealth at the end of the auction wins the game. However, if the Auction House has the most wealth, then the House wins!
