ABSENTEE BID POLICY

CARRITHERS AUCTION  IS HAPPY TO ACCEPT YOUR ABSENTEE BID. If you wish to bid on an item on any of our auctions and cannot attend the auction in person simply e-mail or call Carrithers Auction and let us know which item(s) you wish to leave with an absentee bid.

Your bid will be treated as a Proxy bid, meaning that our staff will bid for you as if you were in the crowd bidding for yourself. The attending bidders will open the bid and our staff will bid for you in the same increments that the attending bidders are raising. If your absentee bid is high bid at the fall of the hammer, you will pay what the last bid on that item.

We will not enter your bid as the opening bid and will not raise the bid to your high bid just because we know your high bid. Please feel confident in leaving the maximum bid you are willing to pay for the item and we will buy that item for you at the best price possible. It is our feeling that by treating absentee bids in this manner we are working in the best interest of our sellers by getting them at least one more bid on their items then they would have received if we had not accepted your absentee bids.

WE DO NOT ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS!!!

When placing an absentee bid we request that you furnish the following:

1. Description of the item(s).

2. Your name, address, daytime, evening & cell phone numbers.

3. Banks name, phone number & contact officer.
