Bidding Details

Live Bidding

Our auctions are now conducted online through Live Auction World.  If you are having difficulty navigating the online registration process, please call the office and arrange to come in and have an in-person demonstration of how to complete your registration.

Absentee Bidding

If you are unable to bid online, you may complete an Absentee Bid Form and give it to the office staff and your bid will be handled for you.

Costs & Guarantees

You are responsible for all the purchases you make through bidding online or by absentee bid.  It is also your responsibility to inspect all the items you are interested in before you bid on them. Most things are sold As-Is and there are no refunds. The exception is when an important part of an item is not visible – such as electrical or mechanical components. Dodds Auction offers a limited guarantee on these types of things, which would include stereos, electrical appliances, computer hardware, power tools and motors. The Guarantee is good until noon on the Wednesday immediately following our online Saturday auction. If there is a problem but you cannot return the item on the Wednesday,  you must call and tell us about it by then. For Special Auctions, the guarantee time will be announced.

*** Important ***
All items are subject to PST & GST as well as a 18% buyer’s premium.

Payment

Payment will be processed after the auction closes on Saturday, using the credit card that was registered with Live Auction World.
