2. Each lot in this sale has an estimated price to aid the bidder.
3. The current bid is determined by taking the second highest bid, then increasing it by one bidding increment. Increments will be as follows:
Up to $250.00....increments of $10.00
$250.00-$500.00....increments of $25.00
$500.00-$1,000.00....increments of $50.00
$1, 000-$2,500.00....increments of $100.00

$5,000-$10,000.00....increments of $500.00

Example: you bid $1000 on a lot, which is the highest bid received to date. The second highest bid is $500 – the current bid is yours at $525. Any bid received below $1000 will automatically be increased until we reach your maximum bid level.
