BIDDING
How do I bid?
To bid, you must first register to bid. Once registered you may go to any Online-Only auction catalog, pick the item you are interested in, then click the bid button. Type in the amount of your bid in the bid box and click the "place bid" button.
Am I bidding on the photo or the description of the item?
Only bid on the item description. Use the photos as a guide only. For demo purposes, equipment may be joined and photographed together. Do not assume a lot consists of more than one item because they are pictured together. You are bidding on the item as described in the catalog. For example, a cabinet does not include the merchandise inside unless specified. Take advantage of the preview and read the descriptions.
Can I submit a bid offline?
If you have no Internet access please call (208) 467-1588 to make bidding arrangements. In some cases there may be an additional charge for this service.
Is there a minimum bid price on merchandise?
Most items have no reserve. Due to financing requirements we must sometimes allow Sellers to place a minimum, confirmation, starting or proxy bid on an item. Usually ArmstrongAuctions.com.com Online-Only auction items start at $5.00 and sell regardless of price.
What if the lot has a quantity of more than one?
Check the item description. If it says "sold times the money" then it is being sold "bid price times the quantity". Check your final bid price before submitting your bid. For example, if a lot contains 5 boxes you must bid on all 5. If you bid $5 your bid will be multiplied by 5 to total $25.
Does bidding end on all items at the same time?
No, items close approximately 1 every 30 seconds for staggered closings. Always read the specific terms of each auction. Items close dynamically and the closing time is automatically extended if a bid is placed within 4 minutes of an items scheduled closing. Bidding on an item will remain open as long as bids continue to be placed within a four minute increment.
Am I notified if I am outbid?
Yes, but please be sure to check your bids often or place a "Max-Bid" so our system will bid on your behalf.
How do I know if an item has ended?

BIDDING STRATEGIES
Should I bid while the auction is closing?
Many of our bidders begin bidding actively as items are closing. ArmstrongAuctions.com Online-Only auctions can be more exciting than other online auctions, because bidding time extends if an item is bid on within 4 minutes of closing. However, to assure you do not get caught up in the frenzy of last minute bidding, we strongly recommend that you consider using the Max-Bid feature. Just enter your maximum price. Max-Bid will bid on your behalf - using only what it needs to keep you the 'winner'.
Can I increase my own bid?
Yes, you may increase your own bid to outbid other bidders. The system will only bid on your behalf once another bidder bids.
