Ever want to be a part of an auto auction, but don’t want to take the time out of your busy day to physically show up at a location that could be hundreds of miles away from you? Also, maybe you’re not exactly sure of the process and the etiquette that may be involved with an in-person car auction atmosphere. Well, at last there is a website that allows you to take part in the fun and excitement of bidding for vehicles from the comfort and privacy of your own home, with the use of your computer and an Internet connection.
JCH Auctions is a 100% online, public auto auction website that regularly schedules events for cars, motor homes, campers, box trucks, tractors, and more. The following five tips are also a good idea to read through to ensure that you can have fun and easily bid like a pro!
- Start Me Up – The gist of it goes like this: Once you’ve registered and your bidding privileges are activated, enter your bids next to each item you’re interested in and submit them at the bottom of the page. You will then be prompted to agree to some terms of use, review your bids, and confirm.
- Can I “Buy Now?” – On some items, a seller may agree to a “Buy Now” price. If this is an option on your item of interest, just click the “Buy Now” link to agree to pay that price and confirm. Congratulations, you have agree to buy that item!
- Set It and Forget It- When participating in one of our convenient online auto auctions, you may want to actually set two bids. The “Your Bid” box will set the bid you want to start bidding at. The “Your Maximum” box will keep bidding on your behalf until your maximum bid is met. This is a good idea to sort of “set it and forget it.”
- Sealed – If an auction is labeled as “Sealed Bid,” then you enter one bid in the “Max Bid” box. There are no reports of competing bids available in this auction style. Everybody enters one bid privately and one bid only. If, at the end of the auction, your max bid is the highest, then you will have won that item.
- Have Fun! – Online auctions can be fun and even get you a decent and affordable mode of transportation if you bid wisely. After reading this blog and understanding the process a bit better, take your time and go through the website, register, and enjoy the ride.
