Inspection is your opportunity to look at all the items going up for auction. It is recommended that you inspect every item that you intend to bid on as they are all sold as is, therefore it is the bidder’s responsibility to ensure that they know if the item is working, have any faults, missing parts etc. If you are not sure about an item it is best not to bid on that item.
Prior to bidding, you are required to register at front desk and receive a bidder’s number. You will require some form of proof to register i.e. drivers licence. Once you have your number you wait until the item you want to bid on comes up and start bidding.
If there is a large quantity of one item the highest bidder will have the option of how many items they wish to take. If there are quantities remaining then under bidders will have the option to purchase at the same price as the highest bidders. In some cases where the quantities are small the auctioneer will announce that he is selling “per item” but the highest bidder will be required to “take the lot”

There will always be some items with reserves, although a large amount of our items are unreserved. We are not allowed to disclose reserve prices.
If you are bidding on an item and at the end of your bids you are told that the item is passed in it means that there is a reserve on that item and the closing bids were not close to the item’s reserve. If you are bidding on an item and at the end of your bids your are told that the item is referred it means that there is a reserve on that item and the closing bid is close enough to the reserve that the auctioneer will review your bid at the end of the auction. If your item is referred, you are not obligated to that bid and can choose to bid on another item.
