  • Bidding System FAQs

            Do I have to log in to bid?
    • Yes, you will need to create an account and log in to place bids. NOTE: If you created an account for the 6904 or the previous auctions, you can use that account to log in and bid.

      How do I create an account?
    • Below the Login Form on the right side of the webpage, choose "Create an Account" Fill in the required information, check your email for the activation link, and you can then log in with that account going forward to place or review bids. OR Log In if you've previously made an account on the new system.
    • Prior to placing your first bid, it will require you to accept the terms and conditions. After you hit accept, go back to the auction list by clicking Current Auction in the menu above and return to your lot you wish to bid on and try again to submit a bid.

      I can't get into my account. What do I do?
    • Please email us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or call us at (800) 248-8114 and we would be happy to help.

      How do I see a bigger picture or more information on the lot?
    • On the main auction listing, click each lot and you will see a larger photo and full lot description. You can also click on the photo again to enlarge it fully.

      How do I know if my bid went through?
    • Your bid should show up under the "My Bids" link in the Current Auction drop down menu at the top of the website.

      Do I need to bid in order to see the current high bid?
    • No, the current high bid displays both on the main auction page or if you click on an individual lot.
    • Alternatively, when logged into your account, the new system allows for a watch list and review of placed bids on the My Bids or Watchlist pages (under the "Current Auction" drop down menu).

      Will I be notified of my placed bids or if I am outbid?
    • You will receive individual email confirmations for each bid placed or if you are outbid.
    • If you choose to proxy bid, you will be notified each time someone bids against your proxy bid and the system automatically bids on your behalf against them until it reaches your proxy bid maximum and you are outbid.
    • Please check your Spam folders and/or add This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to your approved senders lists in your email settings if you are not receiving the confirmation emails.

      How do I find a particular lot?
    • The bidding system has search capabilities! You can search by keyword, lot number, or browse by category.
    • Your placed bids can be found under My Bids in the Current Auction drop down menu.

      What is Proxy Bidding?
    • Proxy bidding allows you to place a maximum bid which bidders will need to incrementally bid up to in order to win. For example, if you place a proxy bid for $100, bidders will be able to place bids up to your $100 bid and will only be the high bidder if they exceed that. Therefore the high bid will display below your maximum bid of $100 until someone exceeds that amount.
    • You will receive notifications when someone has bid against you and the system bids on your behalf against that person up until your $100 maximum. For example, if someone bids $50 against your $100 proxy bid, the system will place a bid of $55 on your behalf against that $50 bid. If that person bids again at $60, you will be notified your bid has been increased to $65, and so forth up until your maximum of $100.
    • Once someone bids above your $100 proxy bid, you will be notified you are outbid. 
    • If you place a bid of $100 *not* by proxy, the high bid will immediately become $100 and someone will need to bid above $100 to beat you. Proxy bidding allows you to possibly win the item for below your maximum bid. 

      How do I change my login information, screen name, or email?
