ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT USING THE AUCTION

  1. LOGIN: You need to be logged in to participate. CLICK the pink BOOSTING BEST Auction button above and select Login in the upper right to login or click "Don't have an account? Create an account now" if appropriate on the same page. Click the link a second time to get to our auction.
  2. FAVORITES: As you consider the 130 auction items, you may want to create a WATCH LIST of favorite items by clicking the HEART on the item.
  3. EASY TO MANAGE YOUR BID: Use Proxy Bid to stay the top bidder! Enter a maximum bid amount and select Proxy Bid instead of Exact Bid. The system will enter your first bid as the current bid + the Minimum Bid Increment value. If another bidder bids more than your first bid, then the system will add the increment to their bid to keep you in the high bidder position. This automatic bidding will continue up to your maximum bid amount.
  4. *FINAL MINUTES - EXTENDED BIDDING: If an item receives a bid during the final 3 minutes of the auction, the item end time will be extended to allow for 3 additional minutes of bidding. This process repeats until no new bids are received during the final 3 minutes of the item bidding window or the auction has been extended for a maximum of 30 minutes beyond the original end time. When an auction is extended, you'll see Extended Bidding messages displayed throughout the auction with a link for easily viewing all of the extended items.
  5. NOTIFICATIONS: Automatic email notifications will keep you updated on bidding status.
  6. PICKUP/SHIPPING/PAYMENT: Within each item description, Pickup/Shipping and Payment Instructions explain your options.
  7. PAYMENT: Once you receive an invoice (it will continue to accumulate purchases until the auction end), purchaser / donor may:
  • Pay us directly by CHECK so we avoid processing fees of more than 6%. Pay by check at item pickup or drop-off or mail a check made out to RM BEST to: Rocky Mountain BEST 8400 E Princeton Ave Denver, CO 80237
  • Pay by CREDIT CARD using 32Auctions (If you choose this option, we hope you will add a donation to help with the credit card fees!!)
