You can visit our online platform to place your high bid ahead of the auction. On the day of the auction you will be advised if your high bid has been outbid, at which point you can join the live auction and place a new bid if you wish.

In order to successfully bid during the live online auction, you will need a high-speed connection. We advise bidders to leave a back up absentee bid to protect yourself in case the Internet connection is dropped during the bidding process; if you see the bid advance beyond your absentee bid you’ll know that you are no longer the high bidder and can then attempt to bid again.

Be aware there are times when the bidding increments are such that the bid lands on your absentee bid amount however to another bidder you are the off bid and will need to bid again if you want to stay in the action.
