We do no packing or shipping ourselves but instead rely on our one local Pack 'n Ship, Mailspot Express. Once an idea has been paid for, and once I receive direct permission from you to release the piece to the shipper, I will hand deliver the piece to them. They will then contact you directly for instructions/payment for shipping.

Hi Martin--most of our auctions these days are LIVE ONLINE auctions meaning you can bid two different ways. You can put in a maximum bid for each item and the computer system will bid for you at the appropriate increments. Or you can bid live--a console will pop up on your screen and you'll place bids just like you would in an in person auction. Auctions start at 1pm and we go about a lot/minute. I'm at my computer accepting bids until the bidding stops. The item is then sold to the top bidder. It's fun. Maybe watch another auction from a different auction house first to see how it works. Let me know if you have any questions. Spence

@@bakkerart5799 Thank you for your reply, Spence. Good idea, I'll observe a few live auctions. How does it differ from eBay bidding? Will other offers/bids be visible (so I'd be able to adjust my bid)? Item per minute sounds tense. ;) Martin

@@martin.B777 I'm not very familiar with ebay bidding. When watching live you will see a list of all the active bidding--you'll see who is bidding against you. If you've left max bids and the computer is bidding for you---then your max bid is outbid, you can jump in and bid more. It's not too tense---I call 3 "fair warnings" before selling... leaves plenty of time for you to decide whether you want to continue to bid.

@@bakkerart5799 Thank you for the clarification!👍
