Bidding Tips
.
Maximum Bid: Using the "maximum bid" feature can be a real time and stress saver .
Sniping: Due to rounding and the imprecision of minutes left, do not wait until the last minute to bid. Sniping doesn't work with the "soft close" system;. Give yourself a cushion of time to make sure that you don't lose the items.

Questions: All questions regarding any auction should be directed to Northern Kentucky Auction LLC.. Any member of our staff would be happy to answer your questions and make this an enjoyable auction experience for you.

Each registered bidder will be assigned a bid number which may be used on this auction.

Bidding: Online bidding is to be understood as a binding contract.
