Absentee Form
|
| How
do I know if my absentee bid won? |
One
of the auction staff you contact you on Saturday
after the auction |
| Is
there a reserve on the vehicle? |
Reserve
Prices. A reserve is the minimum price that
a vehicle will sell for. If none of the bids
received equal or exceed theReserve Price, the
items will not be sold unless the Seller expressly
authorizes the sale. Most vehicles have a “reserve
/ protected price” and it is kept in confidence
between the Consignor and the auction house.
The auction house works very closely with the
Consignor to ensure the vehicle sells 1st ,
2nd, or 3rd time and the Auction adjusting the
“reserve / protected price” accordingly
|
| How
do you know when the reserve is met? |
1.
You will definitely find out during the
live webcast right after the vehicle
goes through and the bidding ends.
2. Sometimes if the pre bidding is high enough
the consignor will give us a call to lift the
reserve and we will post it on the website &
live auction world, we may also announce it
at the beginning of the live webcast or before
the live bidding starts on the vehicle.
3. During the bidding the auctioneer will occasionally
announce the the vehicle "it is cut loose"
ofr "It's going to sell", which means
it has reached or exceeded the reserve or the
consignor has got in touch with us during the
sale and lowered the reserve.
|
| What
is an If Bid (Phone Call) |
When
the bids do not reach the Reserve Price, the Auctioneer
may conditionally sell the item subject to an
If Bid (also called phone bid or confirmation
sale). When a Buyer makes an If Bid, the Seller
has two hours (or other announced
time frame) to accept the bid. The Buyer may not
withdraw the If
Bid during the If Bid time frame.
|
| What
is the opening bid on a particular vehicle? |
The
first person to bid on a particular vehicle is
the opening bid ( bidder). The auctioneer will
ask for a certain bid if he does not receive one
he will continue lowering that number until he
receive a bid from a buyer in the audience.
|
| What
are the bid increments? |
The
bid increments are determined by the auctioneer
at the time of the sale. It mainly depends on
the value of the vehicle, and the interest of
the bidders and could be $500, $200, $100, $50
or $25 at a time |
| Is
there a buy now option to purchase a vehicle? |
All
vehicles are sold by auction on Saturdays. |
| If
a vehicle does not sell in an auction does it
go back up for auction the following Saturday? |
Yes,
if it does not sell it will go to the next auction.
The auction house works very closely with the
Consigner to ensure the vehicle sells 1st , 2nd,
or 3rd auction adjusting the “reserve / protected
price” accordingly |
