New Bidders: Please do not wait until the last minute to register for the auction. We suggest that you register early and then place a bid early in the auction (while the bids are still low) in order to familiarize yourself with the bidding process. It will make your auction experience much more relaxing and enjoyable.
How to Register for First Time Bidders: Click on “Register to Bid”, at the next page click on “Sign Up”, and then complete the information requested. Upon successful completion you will receive notice that you are approved to bid.
If You Have Already Registered: If you have already registered and been approved, you simply click on the “Register to Bid” link and on the next page, click on “Sign In”.
Buyer’s Premium: A 10% buyer’s premium will be added to the winning bid to determine the final selling price. For example, if the closing bid is $100,000, the Buyer's Premium would be $10,000, resulting in a final contract selling price of $110,000.
Bidding: Online bidding is to be understood as a binding contract. Bids will be taken with the understanding that the bidder will honor their winning bid with sufficient funds in the specified time frame. Notification of the winning bid will be made immediately at the auction's close.
Online bids can be made using two methods: selecting the green button that says “Bid (amount)” or selecting the green button that says “Set Max.”
“Bid (Amount):” This button shows the next bid required and allows the bidder to input a single bid as in a live auction. For example: if the bid is currently $100,000 the green box will say “Bid $100,250.
“Set Max” Feature: This feature enables you to set a maximum bid so the computer does your bidding without you having to constantly view, log in, and bid on an item. Setting a maximum online is much like coming to a live auction with a preset spending limit in mind. The program will bid for you, in the prescribed increments, and only up to your spending limit for the item. For example: the current bid is $100,000 with Bidder A having the winning bid. Bidder B wants to place a bid and is willing to bid as much as $300,000. If Bidder B places a maximum bid of $300,000 the bid rises only to $100,250. If Bidder A returns and places a maximum bid of $200,000, the program automatically does the bidding in the pre-established increments. In this example the bidding will stop at $200,250 with Bidder B winning because the next bid would be $200,500, which is more than Bidder A’s limit. Maximum bid amounts are kept confidential. Please note that the bid history page will post a message if the current high bid has been a result of a Maximum Bid. You can raise a bid or raise your maximum bid at any time prior to the close of the auction.
Bidding Increments: The bidding increments for this auction are set at $250 and thus bidding is in multiples $250.
