TIPS TO BE SUCCESSFUL BIDDING ONLINE 1. Listening to the Auction Broadcast by hitting VIEW LIVE. We recommend Google Chrome or Mozilla as a browser. Do not use Internet Explorer. 2. Connect to a High Speed Internet connection. Over the Air LTE is not the best option, but it will work. If you don't have Xfinity or Verizon Fios, we recommend using the MAX BID FEATURE. 3. Bid quickly, and decisively, and press BID, then, CONFIRM to place a bid. Hesitation is not your friend. Bids typically take 1.5 second to be sent from you to the auctioneer. 3B. Press the (v) next to the BID button to advance the bid to a specific amount, or leave a MAX BID so the computer will automatically bid on your behalf against other bidders up that amount. MAX BID's are good for people who have slow internet connections, or don't have time to participate in the live auction broadcast. 3C. If you see HIGH BIDDER, that means you hold the high bid. If the BID button is still green, you need to bid and confirm that amount to outbid the current high bidder. BID PENDING, means your bid has not been received and accepted by the auctioneer. You will see BID PENDING if multiple bidders are bidding that same amount. 4. Bid using a desktop or laptop computer as it will give you the best screen view. A tablet will work fine, too, but a phone should really be your last resort. The screen and bidding application features will be limited to accommodated the small screen size. 5. Download the "Damewood Auctioneers" app in the App Store or Google Play for you smartphone or tablet - it's free! 6. Make sure your device has updated software, and you are using the latest browser edition. 7. If you are having trouble with audio, video, or bidding is slow, go to your browser history and CLEAR CACHE and COOKIES. This will help your browser work faster.
