Bidding Tips

Get the most out of every Prestige bid sale.

1

End your bid with a unique number

Finish your bid on an odd figure — e.g. $5,217 or $2,539, not $5,200 or $2,500. It can be a bummer to lose by just a few dollars on a round number.

2

Bid your real max, plus a little

Think about the most you'd pay for the vehicle and add a small amount like $25 or $50. That small cushion wins cars.

3

Appraise properly

Test drive the vehicles long enough to appraise them right. Some vehicles need to warm up to show their colors.

4

Watch the re-runs

If a vehicle has been re-run from the week before, the market is usually the floor — keep that in mind when you bid.

5

Understand 2nd Chance bidding

2nd Chance gives everyone another shot each week. The last column is the Floor, not the Market — you must get real close or exceed it for the vehicle to sell. Meeting the floor doesn't guarantee the unit, but it does mean it will be sold.

6

Bid from anywhere — within sale hours

Use a computer in our office or access the bidding system from any computer in the world. All bids must be submitted within our posted bidding times.

7

Pay and remove quickly

When you win, the sooner you pay and remove the vehicle, the sooner you get the title.
