Auction Rules Registration for Live & Silent Auctions Registration for bidders begins at 1:30 PM. Paddle Numbers and Buyer’s Sheets Upon registration, you will receive a “paddle” with your bidding number on it. In order to participate in either the silent or live auction, you will need to have registered and have a bidding number. During the auction, keep track of your purchases on the half-page buyer’s sheet provided at registration. Bidding for Multiple People You are required to pay for any purchases made with your bidding number. To bid for someone who is not present, or someone who is present but wishes to pay separately, please register that person and obtain a separate bidding paddle for him or her. For example, if you wish to place a bid during the live auction for 6 places at a dinner, and you are only going to pay for 2 of those places, you must bid for the other 4 places using paddle(s) for the other diners, who will then be billed for the purchases after the auction. If you think that you will need help in bidding for others, please talk to the auction staff when you register. Checking Out Check-out is available after the live auction begins. When an item is sold, the bidder number and price will be recorded and filed at the Check Out tables. When you wish to leave, or at the end of the auction, please go to the Check Out tables and present your bidding paddle. All the slips for your purchases will be retrieved and your purchases totaled. Upon paying, you will be given a copy of the ticket for each item you purchased as your receipt. Payment must be made BEFORE you retrieve your items. Payment may be made by cash, credit card, or personal check made payable to Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington and write “Auction” on the memo portion of the check. Present your paid receipt when you pick up your auction item(s). All purchases must be removed on the day of the auction unless purchaser requires help transporting items and gets approval from Auction Chair, Deb Fish. Notification Donors of services will be notified as soon as possible after the auction of all those individuals who purchased the donated services. Buyers should keep a copy of the auction catalog and contact donors using the telephone number/email address provided in the catalog. Expiration Policy It is up to buyers to contact donors for services purchased. Unless both parties come to an agreement on a specific extension, purchases will be forfeited after one year. This policy protects donors from building up multiple obligations for unclaimed items. The buildup leads to reluctance to offer the service for the next auction.

Specific Rules for the Silent Auction Enter your bid on the sheet beside the item. The number on the sheet should match the one on the item’s tag. Use your bidder number, NOT your name. Raise bids in whole dollar amounts only. Do not cross out an old bid. Enter a new bid on a new line instead. For Table 1 Area, bidding ends at 3:00 pm. For Table 2 and Art Area, bidding ends at 3:30 pm. Highest bid at closing times wins. Winning bids will be highlighted on bidding sheets after the bidding closes. Do not remove bid sheets from the Table Areas! After paying, you must pick up your item from Table Personnel. Specific Rules for the Live Auction Enter your bids by raising your paddle high in the air for the spotter to see and the auctioneer to acknowledge. Feel free to bid as many times as required to enter the winning bid. During the live auction, feel free to continue placing bids for Silent Auction items. Auction will end at 4:00pm, proceed to check-out. After paying, you must pick up your item(s).
THANK YOU AND ENJOY THE AUCTION!!
