How to Enter a Silent Bid
Quilt Auction Silent Bid Procedure
The silent bid process will be done in a fashion so to keep all bids absolutely confidential.
Bids may be placed by submitting the Silent Bid Form to your right, or in person in the Quilt Barn.
Bidders will complete contact information which will be confirmed by a Quilt Sales team member. They will then confidentially put in the Quilt number or numbers, and the limit amounts that they are willing to bid on the quilts.
The bid will then be put in an envelope, sealed, and placed in the box. If submitting online, the form will be sealed until auction day.
At the end of the day, the Business Office will pick up the box. The envelopes will be removed, but not opened, and the box will be returned for the next day.
On the Friday night prior to the auction, all envelopes will be opened and entered on spreadsheets.
Each bid for a quilt will be assigned a unique number.
