  • HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL SEE MY AD?                                                                                                

Thousands upon thousands of bidders throughout North America, are registered with AuctionTime and HiBid, will see the client/seller's inventory. Neil Agency Auctioneers, LLC creates an advertising campaign for the equipment, utilizes the services of Facebook Business to purchase ads, and identifies, targets, and customizes an audience for potential bidders. Neil Agency also promotes the inventory on the Neil Agency website as well as four Facebook sites for a greater reach to bidders,  and creates newsletters to send to existing clients.

  • DO I HAVE TO SHIP MY ITEM(S) TO THE BIDDER?

No. The bidder will either travel to pick up their winning item or send someone to collect it from the site. There is no cost to the client/seller for transportation, shipping, or handing, as it is the responsibility of the bidder.

 
  • AS A CLIENT/SELLER, WILL MY ITEMS SELL, AND WILL I RECEIVE A LOT OF MONEY FOR MY ITEM(S)?
As with any auction, there is no secret formula that tells us whether items will sell or clients/sellers will make a fortune. ​Our research shows there are a few factors that may possibly dictate the end result: a) what is the want; b) what is the need; 3) what else is going on in the country; and d) is it a pay day. There may be other factors, however, we believe these are the primary reasons.
  • HOW DO I BECOME A BIDDER ON AUCTIONTIME OR HIBID?
To register for AuctionTime, go to the neilagency.com Home Page and click on the Auction Time button. Look for "register to bid" on the right of left of the Menu.

  • CAN I PLACE AN OUTSIDE BID ON AN AUCTION OR HIBID? IF SO, HOW?
The bidder must register to bid but there is no charge to register. Proxy bids (outside bids) can be placed on either auction or participate in the live auction with a laptop or phone to place your bids.  The bidder will receive an email if they have the winning bid as well as an email if they have been outbid. For more information on auctiontime.com and bidding, go to auctiontime.com, and look for "Can I Bid" or "How To" on the top menu. For HiBid, once the bidder is registered, the bidder's name will apprear at the top left corner of HiBid. A drop-down box will offer the bidder directions and so much more on how to bid, save items to your watch list, and more.
