How To Bid
Phone Bidding
In some events a bidder would prefer to bid by Telephone. Phone bidding allows the bidder to be called prior to their item going live on the sale date by an auction house representative who will bid on your behalf in real time. To register as a phone bidder you must fill out the phone bidder request form.
Below is the Credit Card Authorization Phone Bidding form. Please fill out the form completely in order to be approved as a Phone Bidder in an upcoming sale. The red flags throughout the form will point to areas that need to be completed. The bottom bar will show your document progress. The dots along the right side will indicate if a page is completed by green or not completed in red. Once all the fields are completed a Submit button will appear.
After Submitting the Form
Once the form has been completed and submitted you will be entered into our system as a phone bidder.
During the live sale a representative of the auction house will call you using the contact info you submitted in the form a few lots in advance of the item you are interested in. As the bidding proceeds the representative will relay the auctioneers current asking amount, simply and quickly replay with “yes” or “no”. You can also ask the representative to raise the bid above the asking price during this time.
Our company sells on average an item every 30 to 50 seconds. Please make sure
