  Bid tv - Search.com
bid tv (known as bid-up.tv until 21 January 2005) is a digital television channel based in the UK that runs daily live auctions.
In January 2005, the channel was renamed Bid tv to reflect the fact that more of its auctions followed the price-drop tv method, meaning that bidders were only rarely bidding "up".
Common criticisms of Bid TV (and its sister channels) include the fact that the channel uses premium rate telephone numbers (which cost the customer £1.50 per call from BT lines) for buying items, and levies a minimum £7.99 postage and packaging fee on top of the final price.

In the process, the company is positioning itself to offer services that, until now, many consumers haven't even dreamed of, such as allowing TV viewers to interactively search for programming using keywords, much like a Google search, or dial up a live view of traffic on local roads.
Right now, FiOS TV is available only in the Dallas suburb of Keller, Texas, though Verizon has said that several other markets outside of Massachusetts will get it by the end of the year and that Woburn would be the first in the state, in early 2006.

The image shown on the TV itself should be something that you've drawn/painted/etc., and may be part or all of a piece that you've done in the past, as long as you have full rights to the image, and are willing to transfer all rights to that image to us.
Because we have run into difficulties in the past with people who submit artwork that they did not create, we are going to ask you to "audition" by submitting one sample TV as part of your bid.
Take the TV's model number (not including the manufacturer), turn any lower case letters to capital letters, and remove all spaces, hyphens, and other separator characters; this string now becomes the "base" for the following steps.
