Hunt Auctions

How does Hunt work?

I see that the auction closed tonight at 10pm but opens again tmrw at 11am for the Live Auction!! How long does that last??

Can anyone bid in any lots tmrw if they didn’t bid in regular time??

I’m still new to the auction house game and this one seems a little different.

Online bidding is prebidding only. So anyone can bid during the live portion assuming they are registered to bid.
They will open each lot in order one at a time to live bidding

Live bidding occurs online, over the phone, or in person usually and the lots sell very quickly during that part.

I'd call their customer service early today before bidding starts if you need any assistance. I have always found them very helpful.

I've got a bid holding but it's at my ceiling. Keeping my fingers crossed.

I absolutely love how they do their auctions live w prebidding. Fair way to run an auction.

Heresy I'm sure.

.... and literally 2 minutes later they begin experiencing technical problems. Touche.

You would think that they would offer pictures of the backs of the cards, especially on those where they note that there is some back damage.

Let us know if it holds up...

My experience is that no matter how strong the ceiling bid, you'll be overtaken as soon as the Live Bidding begins. Rarely (if ever) do the Internet Bids seem to hold on.

A quick "Thank you!" for turning me on to Hunt Auctions. As I perused through the auction, I saw one of my 10 Most Wanted staring back at me! Sadly, it was not to be--as I missed the bidding. If anyone on here purchased the T207 Weaver, congratulations and you're fortunate I didn't know of it sooner, Lol. If you ever get sick of looking at it, please let me know. I am now registered with Hunt and will look forward to their next offering.
Best,

I really enjoy their Live Auction Format i have picked up a big chunk of my collection from them. I think they do a great job and always have great stuff.

I was outbid on all the other T207s but did win the Weaver. While it wasn't cheap, I thought it might go for more.

Their site and lack of pictures is horrid, but their closing format is A LOT of fun. Great material too.

That Waddell photo is 1903 btw and not 1898.

Any other news on the Waddell photo, Jeff (hopefully of a positive nature?)

[Bicem]

Unfortunately no, I didn't win it Mark, decided not to bid against people who were led to believe it was 1898.

Picked up the Boston Red Sox cabinets though, these so rarely come up and are beautiful cards/photos.

How'd you do?

[Phil68]

Otis, I was certainly prepared to bid higher, but I take solace in the fact it was aggressively sought after. With me around, your investment is safe...you did not overpay.
