                           BID.COM INTERNATIONAL INC.

         On October 11, 2001, Bid.Com International Inc. ("Bid.Com" or the
"Company") announced that it has received overwhelming shareholder approval to
acquire ADB Systemer ASA, a Norway-based software vendor of enterprise asset
management and integrated electronic procurement applications, and re-name the
Company to ADB Systems International. The Company also announced that
shareholders holding 98 percent of the shares of ADB Systemer have accepted
Bid.Com's offer.

         Bid.Com shareholders also voted to consolidate the Company's shares on
the basis of one consolidated share for each two shares currently outstanding.
The Company is awaiting approval for its new trading symbols on the Nasdaq Stock
Market and the Toronto Stock Exchange, and will continue to trade under its
current symbols (Nasdaq: BIDS, TSE: BII) until further notice.

         The Company will name Martin Bekkeheien, a senior executive with
Statoil, one of the world's largest oil and gas companies, and John Reynolds, a
principal of one of ADB's largest shareholders, venture capital firm Lime Rock
Partners, to its Board of Directors. Jan Pedersen will be named president of ADB
Systems International's European operations.

         This Form 6-K may include comments that do not refer strictly to
historical results or actions and may be deemed to be forward-looking within the
meaning of the Safe Harbor provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. These
include, among others, statements about expectations of future revenues, cash
flows, cash requirements and business operations. Forward-looking statements are
subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause Bid.Com's results to differ
materially from expectations. These risks include difficulties that may be
encountered in integrating ADB's business or maintaining certain ADB personnel,
unanticipated costs that may result from the integration and operation of ADB,
Bid.Com's ability to further develop its business-to-business sales and
operations, Bid.Com's ability to develop appropriate strategic alliances and
successful development and implementation of technology, acceptance of Bid.Com's
products and services, competitive factors, new products and technological
changes, and other such risks as Bid.Com may identify and discuss from time to
time, including those risks disclosed in Bid.Com's most recent Form 20-F filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, there is no certainty
that Bid.Com's plan will be achieved.

         The Company hereby incorporates by reference this Form 6-K into its
Registration Statement on Form F-3, and into the prospectus contained therein
(File No. 333-40888).
