I have spent much of the evening looking at the REA auctions back to 2004. I have a pretty active shopping list and am really looking forward to the upcoming spring auction.
It looks like they usually open sometime around the first week of April. I think that would be around April 3rd or 4th this year.
Does anyone know how far out they send the catalogue or open up the website for viewing? Seems like it should be any time.
Let the fun begin...

The REA website says, "Bidding for the auction is set to open April 7. Catalogs will mail starting the first week of April."

Thank Gary. I guess I was too busy looking at the old auctions that I missed the obvious stuff. I was the kid in school that the teacher had to reiterate the lesson a few times...

The auction always starts before the catalog arrives. At least in my experience.

No worries, Kevin, I've done that plenty of times also. I'm still hoping REA offers a full preview early, especially so I can figure out what to go for in LOTG and how much to save for REA.
REA's catalogs (and auctions) always rate with the very best. Saving pennies as I type!!
