If you are unsure, you should inquire or not bid. 8. BIDDING WILL BE FAST. The auctioneer may not warn you when he is going to say sold. Many excellent buys have been missed because the bidder thought he would wait a few seconds more to “see what happens”. Many bidders prefer to have private bidding arrangements prior to the auction. You may do so by seeing the auctioneer or a ringman before the auction begins. When you wish to bid DURING the auction, merely hold up your hand to the auctioneer or a ringman. 9.
