Timed Sale Instructions

1. After registering for an auction, log in to your account at MeadoworksAuctions.com

2. Navigate to the timed auction sale you want to participate in.

3. For timed auctions, submit your maximum bid before the lot’s closing time — the system will automatically bid on your behalf up to that amount.

4. Lots often sell in the order of the catalog; however, the end time may extend if people bid in the last few minutes of a lot to provide everyone with a fair opportunity to bid. This may cause lots to sell out of numerical order. For this reason, we recommend A) clicking on the green Sort by button in the upper left of the screen and selecting Time Left and B) frequently refreshing your browser throughout the sale.
