Read Before Bidding | Live Online Auctions

Auction will be open for pre-bidding approximately two weeks from auction date until Wednesday, June 12 at 10:00 AM, at which time pre-bidding will cease and the auction will go live at the auction center (no live audience, just our auctioneer and auction staff). When the auction goes live, lots will be sold one at a time, in numerical order, by a live auctioneer who will be taking bids from multiple online bidding platforms, absentee and phone bids. During pre-bidding you are able to submit a max (maximum) bid. The bidding platform or our auction staff will bid on your behalf up to the maximum bid that you have entered. Once the auction goes live if you wish to increase your bid you will have to wait until that lot opens for bidding and enter any additional bids manually.

Pick-Up: Successful Bidders will receive full instruction on scheduling a pick-up during the load-out times available at the address below following the auction.

Pick-Up Location: 501 Fairgrounds Road, Hatfield, PA 19440.

Shipping: Please read terms and conditions in regards to shipping and other available options if you are unable to attend specified pick-up times.
