Bidding
Revere Auctions hosts live auctions every few weeks. We offer several different ways for you to bid during our sales. During our live auctions we typically sell at a rate of 40-60 lots per hour.
We aim to make the bidding process as easy and seamless as possible.Â
All of these bidding options are bound to our terms of sale.
Bid Live Online
Our auctions are available for LIVE bidding on our website. We also list our auctions on various auction platforms to allow people to bid online using the forum they prefer. The buyer’s premium and terms and conditions of sale may vary depending on the platform used. Please review our auction page on each website before registering as it may differ from bidding directly through us.
Check us out on Liveauctioneers, Invaluable, HiBid, thesale-room and Bidsquare.
Bid by Telephone
We offer phone bidding, which allows you to place your bids verbally in the moment! Please fill out our telephone bid registration form HERE to have a staff member call you during the live auction. We will call you around 5-10 minutes before your item comes up during the auction.
Bid Absentee
If you are unable to attend one of our sales another option for you to bid is by absentee. An absentee bid allows you to place your maximum bid on an item, which our auctioneer will bid up to on your behalf. We do the best we can to give preference to floor bidders in the event of a tie. You can call or fill out an absentee bid form HERE.
Pre-Bidding (Online Only)
We offer online bidding prior to the start of all our live auctions. Bids placed during this time are treated as absentee internet bids, also called left bids. This feature is available on all online platforms. A pre-bid allows you to place your maximum bid online, then the platform’s software will bid up to this amount during the live portion of the auction.
*In the event there are two online absentee bids for the same amount, the auctioneer will make every effort to select the bid that was placed first. However, Revere Auctions uses multiple bidding platforms and in many cases the auctioneer must use their judgement in choosing the bid they believe was the first, given the information they have readily available during the live auction. The auctioneer reserves the right to make final call on all bidding during the live auction.
Bid in Person
At this time Revere Auctions is not open for in-person bidding due to staff limitations. Currently all auction bidding is online, absentee, and telephone only. Please check back regularly for updates on future opportunities to participate in our sales.
