How do I place a bid?

Bidding on our Auction is easy. Just follow the steps below:

Online Bidding:

1. First, register.
2. After signing in, search or browse the various auctions categories. When you find something that you want, look for the bid box (titled "Bidding") on that item's auction page.

   Enter the following information:
   

   • Enter your password: For security reasons, you are required to enter your password each time you bid.
     
   • Enter your bid: The amount you are willing to pay for the item.
     
     
3. Click on "Review Bid." You'll get one of the following confirmation messages:
   • High Bid confirmation: If your bid is the highest, you will be notified of this fact. If you wish to cancel your bid, you must do so now from this preview page. Bids cannot be retracted once confirmed.
   • Outbid confirmation: Another bidder might have placed a bid using automatic bidding, in which case an updated bid was placed on their behalf and you were automatically outbid. If this does happen and you want to bid again, return to the auction page and enter a higher amount. If you enter a maximum bid that is higher than what another bidder has entered for their maximum your bid will be accepted. Keep in mind that all online auction items are also auctioned in the LIVE Auction held March 12-14. If you have entered a maximum bid we will bid for you at the Live Auction up until the bid reaches the maximum you set online. You may choose to call into the Live Auction yourself and continue to bid also.
     
   • Bid is below reserve price confirmation: In some cases, a seller may set a reserve price, which is the lowest price the seller is willing to accept. Any bid less than the reserve price will not win the auction. If this happens and you want to bid again, return to the auction page and enter a higher amount.
4. Once you've previewed your bid and confirmed that everything is in order, click on "Place Bid." This is the final step to submitting your bid.
5. The online Auction will close Friday, March 12 at noon. You can always return to the online auction prior to this and enter a higher or maximum bid. If you have entered a maximum bid we will bid for you at the Live Auction up until the bid reaches the maximum you set online. You may choose to call into the Live Auction yourself and continue to bid also.

Bidding by phone:

1. Call (508)591-8183, Tell the friendly phone operator the board number, item number and the amount you wish to bid.
2. Give them your Bidder ID. Continue to watch and listen to see if someone outbids you, you may call again to place a higher bid (508)591-8183. If you have placed a maximum bid online we will have staff on hand bidding for you up until your maximum bid is reached.
3. At the close of each Board, high bid will be announced and first high bidder will be confirmed by phone. DO NOT come to pick up an item unless you have been called and your purchase is confirmed. Although it may appear that the bid is yours based on the final price, yours may not have been the first bid at that price.
