STAGGERED ENDING TIMES: Each online auction has staggered ending times. When you click on “ALL ITEMS” (above), using 10:00 AM as an example ending time, the first online auction item will close at 10:00 AM and each online auction item will close one minute after the previous. For example: The first online auction item closes at 10:00 AM. The second online auction item closes at 10:01 AM. The third online auction item closes at 10:02 AM. This will continue until all online auction items have closed. Note that extended bidding is also in place. Therefore, if the first online auction item goes into extended bidding the second online auction item will still close at 10:01 AM and the third online auction item will still close at 10:02 AM, etc. (unless they also go into extended bidding) while the first online auction item is still in extended bidding. This scenario applies to all online auction lots. If you have any questions regarding extended bidding, please contact us.

YOU WILL NOT BE INVOICED FOR THE ITEMS YOU HAVE PURCHASED UNTIL THE ENTIRE ONLINE AUCTION IS OVER.
