Auction Rules and Procedures

Registration Check-in at the registration table located in the entrance to the Sanctuary building to receive

your Auction Bid Number. You MUST have a bid number to place bids.

Bid Sheets The silent auction bid sheets look like this:

DOO2 Fantasy Dinner Party – 4/17/20 – John Doe

Description of Event, something very exciting.

Bid Place 1 Place 2 Place 3

$30 301 301 250

$35 250 539

$40

All bids must be in even amounts.

In the silent and live auctions, the winner is whoever has the last bid number in each

column. In our example, #539 won one place for $35, and #250 won two places and can

bring a friend to the party. #250 will pay $65 for two places, one at $30 and one at $35.

#301 had bid on two places but was bumped on both.

In the fixed price auction, every spot is the same price, and every spot wins. When all the

spots are filled, that item is closed.

Quickie

Boards

The quickie boards happen simultaneously with the open auction. The bid sheet for each

board is projected onto the wall for 5 minutes, during which time people can bid continuously.

Many of the physical items sold on the quickie boards will be on display at the front of the

sanctuary.

How to Bid There will be ASL interpreters at the auction.

To bid in the fixed price or silent auctions, write your bid number on the bid sheet.

To bid in the live auction, hold up your bid number (you will receive it written large on a

piece of paper when you register). For items with multiple places, also hold up the number of

fingers to indicate how many spaces you want to purchase. The auctioneer will call out your

bid number and the number of spaces you want. The recorder will enter this information on

the bid sheet.

To bid on a quickie board, raise your hand and a runner will bring you a slip of paper. Write

down the dollar amount of your bid, the item number, and your bid number. The runner will

then bring it back to the quickie board operators, who will record it.

Check-out &

Payment

Check-out will begin at 8:15 in the foyer. Give your bid number to one of the check-out

people and you will be shown a list of your winnings and the total amount of money due.

Payments are due on Auction night by cash or check made payable to UUCSS. Please be

sure to note “2019 auction” in the memo line of your check. We cannot accept credit

cards.

Your receipt will be provided. Items you won can be picked up at the winner’s table in the

choir area. Any items that are left will be placed in Community Hall by the piano for pick up

by November 24, 2019. Anything left after November 24 will be donated to a local charity.

Delivery of

Services

All events and services are fulfilled on the honor system. Neither the auction committee nor

UUCSS can enforce these commitments. All donations are assumed to be made in good faith.

To bid, the bidder number is

written in the next blank space

George’s first capitol City (Charlestown); and sample the verdant landscape of the Central Patuxent (Jug

Gaelic.) But wait – a freighter with 50,000 cases wrecks on the rocky shore! It’s life or death for the

islanders, but the home guard sees only larceny. How will this all turn out? Come and see while you
