Bidding on Items

On the sale home page, click "View All Items" on the left side or at the bottom of the screen. This will show you all of the items currently listed for sale, along with the current bid amounts. Some items may also list a “Buy Now” price.

Be sure to only bid on items you really want: once you bid on an item, you are committed to paying for it if you win!

Click on any item to view details, additional photos, and to place bids. Once the sale has opened, you will see the current bid on each item page and a window to enter your bid. Make sure you select either Exact Bid or Proxy Bid (details below).

 

Extended Bidding

While all of our sales technically end at 8:00pm, we utilize a feature called Extended Bidding which can extend an item’s available bidding time until 8:30pm. If an item receives a bid during the final 3 minutes of the sale, the item’s end time will be extended to allow for 3 additional minutes of bidding. This process repeats until no new bids are received for 3 minutes OR until the sale time has been extended for a maximum of 30 minutes. Please visit this page for a more detailed description of Extended Bidding.

Please view our bidding rules on this page before participating in the sale!

Pickup Appointments

YOU MUST SET AN APPOINTMENT TO PICK UP YOUR ITEMS. Appointment slots are first come, first serve. Sign up early! See below for instructions. Please note that we do not offer shipping for purchased items.

 

Please note that appointments may only be made once the sale is over. If you show up to our warehouse without an appointment, you will be turned away and asked to set one online.

Items are to be picked up at the MCI warehouse:
1400 Mechanical Blvd, Ste 120
Garner, NC 27529
(Old News & Observer building)

Below are some guidelines and tips for what you can expect when you arrive for your pickup appointment.

 

Please bring help to pick up your items! We have very limited staff to help with moving furniture for pickups - keep in mind that they are working for tips, so please be generous!

Payments

Items are to be paid for at or before your pickup appointment. A sales tax of 7.25% will be added to all transactions upon checkout, but please note that tax IS NOT reflected on the invoice you will automatically receive from 32auctions when the sale ends.

We accept the following payment methods:

  • Cash

  • Credit/Debit Card

    • Additional processing fee of 2.95% in person or 3.95% over the phone

  • Certified Bank Check made out to Merchandising Concepts, Inc.

    • Don’t forget to add 7.25% sales tax to your invoice total!

    • WE CANNOT ACCEPT PERSONAL CHECKS

Again, the 32auctions invoice you will receive after the sale does not include taxes or any applicable fees. We can provide complete invoices including taxes and fees prior to pickup appointments upon request.

Impulse Buys!

We will have a limited selection of unsold items and accessories for sale on-site at our warehouse for customers to view during pick-up appointments. Any of these items can be added to your invoice and paid for separately or all at once along with your awarded sale items.

Please note that these items may only be viewed and purchased during scheduled pickup appointments.


That’s it! We really enjoy our sales, and we hope you do too.
