HOW WILL I BID ONLINE
After registering for our online auction and choosing your Bidding Handle, you’ll arrive at your bidding home screen. Here, you can browse the catalog, search for specific items, and view your bids. Click on any item to view its description, bid history, and status.
Once items have opened for bidding, participants will need to enter their Maximum Bid (the maximum amount you are willing to pay) for the item. Bids up to this amount will be placed automatically on your behalf for this item specifically (please note, you will need to do this for each item you are trying to win!)
Some of our items for bid include a Buy It Now price. Once a bidder bids this price, bidding on that item automatically ends, and the item is awarded to that bidder (examples of these items are $25 gift certificates to local restaurants that can only be "bought now" at the fair market value). Specific items can be searched by item number, or by using the drop down menu under "All types".

WHAT IF SOMEONE OUTBIDS ME?
If another bidder outbids your Maximum Bid, you will receive both an email and *text alert letting you know. You will then have the opportunity to revise your Maximum Bid up until the bidding window for that item closes. *Please note, when you register, you will need to opt in for text message alerts.
WHEN WILL I BE NOTIFIED IF I WIN SOMETHING?
Winners in all auction formats will receive notification several minutes after closing from the online auction platform, not from the GLES auction committee. You will receive a separate notification for each item won.
WHERE ARE ALL THE RESTAURANT GIFT CERTIFICATES?
Silent and Buy-it-Now items, most of which are small, local businesses that were either temporarily closed or had a severe impact on their day to day operations will be available for bidding during a second round of our online auction. Out of respect to these businesses and you the buyer, we have decided to hold on posting these items until the stay-at-home order has been lifted/eased up enough for businesses to reopen (see full list of anticipated auction items in PDF format below).
