Auction 101 (Tips, rules, and help):
If you haven't been to an auction before this information is for you:
- Our viewing starts an hour before the auction starts. Our doors open at 9am and the auctions will start at 10am. During the viewing from 9-10 you can walk around, view the items, and get a number. When the auction starts everyone will be seated to see the bidding and allow for us to begin. Please don't view the items after the auction has started unless we ask for everyone to do choice on any items.
- When you are getting a number you will want to have a valid drivers license. At the back of the auction there will be a cashier where you will sign in (this is done every auction), then you will fill out all of the information on the sheet, and receive a bid card. After we receive your drivers license the first time, we won't need it again.
- Please DO NOT sit on the auction furniture or use the auction items. We don't allow anyone to sit on the furniture or use it during the auction. This includes couches, tables, chairs, etc. Please use the chairs that we provide.
- Bidding is easy, just raise your bid card to have our auctioneers see it. If you are in a back and forth a nod or even a simple 'yes' will work too. We have 'runners' that keep a look out for any bidders, hold items being sold up, and take the items to the new owners. Make sure that either a runner or an auctioneer can see your number, don't put away your card unless you are finished bidding or don't want to bid anymore. The runners can bring items up per your request. If there is an item you want to bid on and we haven't gotten to it just ask one of our runners. They will bring it up for you
- When you are completely done bidding you can hand in your bid card and check out with the cashier. You CAN NOT reuse your bid card after you check out. If you check out and see something you want on your way out you need to get a new number and reregister. DO NOT use the same number.
- You will receive your tickets of what you bought which will act as your receipt. Each ticket will have the item that you bought, a description of the item, and the consignor or lot number of the item. Your number will be written in the top right of the ticket.
- Once you are completely checked out you can take your items out to your car. You CAN NOT leave the premises with the items until you have paid. If you need to leave your items here just let a runner know so that you can schedule a day to pick them up.
