Beginners guide to real life auctions
ByI love going to real life auctions and attend at least one every week looking for bargains to offer to my customers. Auctions are wonderful, interesting, exciting and profitable to attend. Done well the auction can be entertaining, sociable and a source of learning. However, if you go about attending auctions in the wrong way it can be an absolute nightmare waste of time and money. Over the next few days I am going to tell you a bit about how I attend auctions and how you too can get the most out of them.
The guide is in ten short parts:
- - How can I find out when and where auctions are running
- - Preparation before attending the auction
- - Equipment to take with you
- - Viewing the auction
- - Research what you’ve viewed
- - Registration /commission bids
- - During the sale – the bidding process
- - Paying for and collecting your purchases
- - When you get you treasures home
- - Other useful snippets – antiques auctions conclusion
I will be adding one or two of these sections to my blog every day over the next week
