Inspection Saturday March 11 from 9 to Noon at Hawkeye Downs in Cedar Rapids

Pickup March 15th 1:00 PM
**NOTE: Bids will be placed in the order that they are received. If 2 buyers enter a max bid of the same dollar amount, the buyer who entered his/her max FIRST will be the bidder that is in at that price. If you bid a certain amount and see that the bid is indeed that amount, but you are not the 'Winning Bidder', that means that someone else had a max bid of that amount and so their bid was placed into the system ahead of yours. The best way to know if you are out is to check your email as you should get an email every time you are outbid.

lot for FIVE minutes past the closing time, if a bid has been placed on that lot<br>

bids on that lot for FIVE minutes. This only affects lots with last minute bids. Any<br>
lot not bid on in the last FIVE minutes will continue to close at their normal times.<br>
An example would be if you were participating in an Online Auction that closed at<br>
6:00 p.m and you placed your bid at 5:55 p.m. That lot would be extended until 6:05<br>
p.m. and would keep extending FIVE minutes after each new bid is placed. It will stop<br>
extending when no bid had been placed for FIVE minutes. This auction also features<br>

automatically go to your max bid. Someone else has to bid to increase the current<br>
price and the computer will automatically bid up to your max in the increments<br>
specified. If someone has already entered a MAX BID on the item you are bidding on,<br>
the system will automatically bid for you until you are the current high Bidder or<br>
you reach your MAX BID. If you have reached your MAX BID and are still not the<br>
current high Bidder, the system will give you the opportunity to enter another MAX<br>
BID. You may request out bid notices when registering for your online bidding<br>
account. You can choose to have them sent to your email, cell phone via text message<br>

enter your MAX BID when bidding. Your MAX BID would be considered the maximum amount<br>
you are willing to pay for your item. Please remember, you can always raise your max<br>
