The auction will be online only. Bidding opens on April 2, 2024, and ends April 16, 2024. We will us HiBid for this auction as it is most user friendly. On Monday, March 18, 2024, the complete auction catalog will be uploaded to both our website (
www.countryboysauction.com) and HiBid.com. A link to HiBid will also be added to our website. Prior to bidding, you will need to register for the auction on the HiBid website. There is no cost to register. This is an international third party auction platform, utilized by millions of buyers.
Once bidding opens, you can place bids on any item(s). If someone outbids you, you will receive notification from HiBid. You can also place a "MAX BID" if following the auction is not possible. This is the maximum amount you would be willing to bid. That bid is not automatically applied in full. The HiBid system will bid for you, placing the next bid increment each time someone else bids. If the item is sold for an amount lower than your MAX BIB, you will get the item at the last bid amount. If bidding exceeds your MAX BID, you will be notified that your MAX bid amount has been exceeded.
It is a very simple process, HiBid has been doing online auction platforms for 20 years, they have perfected it, that is why we use their service.
