Adding internet bidding to a live auction requires a good reliable internet connection, extra staff members to operate the camera and computer to accept internet bids and to keep the internet bidders abreast of what is happening on the floor with the live bidders. Internet bidding also necessitates more detailed and accurate catalog descriptions because the internet bidders are not present to touch and feel the merchandise.
Kincaid Auction Realty has conducted some very successful combination auctions in recent years. However, we still have to be careful in our decision that the end result to the client will be worth the added expense.
