Oh are you in for a surprise tomorrow!
At level 3 you'll be bidding against the rest of the known universe.
You'll see players relative to your level. So a 5 star 95% player at level 3 will also show as 5 stars 95% to managers at all other levels. The price paid will be relative also, so you may pay 25 million (for example) whilst a level 30 manager may pay 120 million.
If you can take screenshots for yourself follow a player on auction that gets bought by a higher level manager. Then find the manager through associations and look at the player who was auctioned and you'll see that apart from money value his abilities haven't changed.
Don't rush in to buying first thing tomorrow. Take your time and watch some auctions first.
