Every Saturday · online
Saturday
auction
Bidding opens at 10 AM. Lots close one after another, and a late bid puts time back on that lot's clock. Bid from your phone, pick up in Bakersfield.
How Saturday works
Four steps,
no sniping
The highest bidder wins, not the fastest clicker. Here's the whole morning.
Get a paddle
A free bidder account gives you a paddle number. Takes 20 seconds.
Leave a max bid
Tell us the most you'll pay. We bid for you one step at a time, and nobody sees your max.
Lots close in order
One after another from 10 AM. A bid in a lot's last 2 minutes adds 2 minutes, so nobody snipes. Spacing + window
One invoice, one pickup
Everything you win lands on one invoice. Pay online, book a pickup slot, show your QR code.
