Step #4 - How to Bid

Bidding for Silent Auction Items begins Tuesday, April 20, 2021 and ends at 10AM on Wednesday, May 12, 2021.  

To bid on items you are required to have an account with Silent Auction Pro (See Step #1 – Register with Silent Auction Pro) and have a credit card on file.

A few notes on the bidding process:

  1. Like eBay, you can enter a maximum amount you are willing to bid on an item. This is called proxy bidding. To place a max bid – but let the system bid for you, check the ”Bid for me” check box before placing your bid.
  2. If you would like to place a bid that is higher than the next valid bid, just make sure the Use proxy bidding check box is not checked. Your bid will be placed as the full amount immediately.
  3. Some items may have a Buy-It-Now price. If you want to buy the item immediately at the buy it now price, simply check the Buy it now check box and click the Buy It Now button.
  4. In the case of tie bids, the person who entered the bid first wins.
  5. If your max bid is equal to the Buy-It-Now price but you place it as a proxy bid, someone else may still win that item by using the Buy-It-Now feature. If you are willing to pay the Buy-It-Now price, you should do so immediately to keep from losing that item.
