The Silent Auction is now LIVE!!!


Time to Shop!!

The Auction items are now live! I wanted to get this up early enough to allow people time to shop.  You are now free to begin placing your bid.



The Auction will end at 11:59 EST on Wednesday August 15th. 



How do I Participate?

Anyone can bid on an item by posting your name and your bid.  If you would like to place bids in privacy, you can register for a bidder #.  Simply email me at vbennett123@yahoo.com  I will email you back with your bidder #.  But this is not necessary in order to participate unless you do not have a google account (gmail).



How will the online auction work?

·         You can begin shopping now!  Each item has its own post.  Just hit the comment button and you will see another person’s bid unless you are the first person to bid on an item. You need to bid higher than the current bid or the minimum bid that is noted. Remember this will be real time so as soon as you hit “Post” the bid will appear.  If you are bidding with a bidder #, in the profile section please select Anoy. and then include your bidder # and the dollar amount of your bid in the comment section.

·         Each item has a minimum bid listed, as well as how much will be added to the item for shipping.  Please bid mindfully and remember that the proceeds of this auction will be going towards Abraham’s funds which will not only provide assistance for our final in-country China fees, but medical costs for his open heart surgery once he is home.

·         You can bid on as many items as you would like, there are no limits.

·         When a bid has already been posted and you would like to also bid on the item, your bid will need to be higher than the last bid listed, and has to be at least a $1 increments.  i.e. if an item has been bid on for $10, then the next bid has to be at least $11.

·         At 11:59 pm est SHARP the bidding will end.  I will be posting online about a half hour before the auction ends to let you know what time I have on my clock.

·         The person with the highest bid on each item is the winner!



How do I pay for my items if I win

An invoice will be sent to you via email confirming the item you won and the amount owed based on your winning bid and the established shipping amount.  You will have 48 hours to pay for your item, which can be done online via Paypal.  Instructions on how to do this will be included with your invoice.



If payment has not been received within 48 hours, or if you have not contacted me to make other arrangements for your items, then the items will go to the second highest bidder.



For additional information on this event, or if you have any questions, please contact Vickie at vbennett123@yahoo.com
