All lots will sell ending on Sunday afternoon on a staggered basis and a late bid will extend the time for that lot. In other words, each lot will sell a few minutes apart to give you time to bid on each one. Also, if you bid on an item in the last few minutes it will extend bidding on that lot by 5 minutes to try and minimize last-second sniping and also not extend bidding too long. We charge a 15% buyers fee and will begin notifying winning bidders and shipping out the day after the close of the auction. Have fun and please let us know if you have any questions or would like to consign to either our weekly auctions or our Featured live in-person auctions.
