An absentee bid is sometimes called a proxy bid. It is a convenient option for someone who is not available to bid in person or online on auction day. Proxy bidding also makes it easier for you to bid on items when you cannot make it to the auction. When you place a proxy bid, the auctioneer will bid on your behalf, up to and including the amount you specify as if you were present at the auction. You can place a proxy bid by emailing, faxing, or by directly handing the absentee bid form to our personnel at the auction site.
