Please be aware that you are responsible for all purchases attributed to your number. Do not allow anyone else to use your bidding number! Each silent auction bid must be printed clearly and written on the next available blank line of the bid sheet accompanied by the bidder’s number. A minimum increase may be required. Bids below the minimum will be disqualified.

2. Buy It Now! A limited number of silent and live auction items may be offered at a “Buy It Now” price allowing the bidder to “buy it now” for a set price and end all further bidding.
