Please be careful when placing bids. Placing a bid is a two step process. When you click the bid button it will pull up a window verifying that you want to place that bid. If you want to place the next bid increment that the computer is asking for you can do that. If you desire to increase the amount of your bid this screen will allow you to bid a higher amount. Ensure that you type in the correct amount. If you make an error the Reagan Watson Auctions, LLC can attempt to correct it but it has to be in a timely manner before the item closes. In order to make a correction you must contact Reagan Watson Auctions, LLC by email- glenn@reagan-watsonauction.com. We have a staff member on duty during all online auctions. You are responsible for the bids that you place. Note that no bids can be withdrawn after the auction for any reason. 7. PROGRESSION OF THE AUCTION: Auctions are typically uploaded to the HiBid Auction Platform 5-7 days before the auction is scheduled to end. Each Auction will have a scheduled time that each auction's items will begin closing. If an auction starts closing on a Sunday night at 5 PM the first lot will be scheduled to close at that time. Auction lots may be scheduled to end anywhere between 15 to 30 seconds apart. Each lot will show a scheduled ending time. If no one bids in the final two minutes before a lot is scheduled to close that lot will close out. If someone bids within the final minute before that lot is scheduled to close, 2 Extra minutes will be added to that lot and that lot only to allow additional time for people to bid. The remaining lots behind that lot will continue to close as scheduled unless someone bids in the last minute on that specific lot as well. This is done to prevent a bidder from 'sniping', all bids made in the last minute of the auction will force an item to stay open for an additional 2 minutes. This gives the back bidder additional time to increase his/her bid if desired. This process will continue until all bidding has ceased on no one bids within the additional minute that was added. 8. PAYING FOR YOUR PURCHASES: There is no cost to register for an auction. We do not take Credit Cards for payment after the Auction. We take PayPal (3% charge added), Cash or Approved Check for Purchase price of your won items including Sales Tax (if appropriate) and Buyers Premium. All items must be paid for in full prior to picking up items. We reserve the right to require payment via wire transfer from buyer's not known to us. If we suspect any fraudulent activity we reserve the right to hold these items until we can determine the validity of the purchase.
9. BIDDING NOTIFICATIONS: You can choose to be notified by email during the auction if you have been outbid. You can watch each item end. If you are the high bidder on an item the item will be highlighted in Green in the Live Auction area. If the lot changes from green to red it means that you have been outbid and would need to bid again at a higher bid. The item will not change back to green until you have surpassed the high bid that the back bidder placed. 10. RESERVE: Seldom are items sold with Reserve. If an item is being sold with a reserve, it will be clearly marked and identified. For items sold with a 'reserve', you will be required to pay a minimum amount in order to win the item. 11.
