Our auctions
During the evening there will be two auctions. In addition to the normal type, conducted by an auctioneer who will encourage people to bid against one another in the usual way, we will also be holding a Silent Auction.
In the Silent auction the lots (or a description of them) are available to view throughout the evening. Bidders write down their bid on the appropriate sheet, along with their contact details. Bidders can see what others have bid and make further (and necessarily higher!) bids as often as they like, up until the deadline. (Please note that there may be a reserve price for some lots.)
So that's the explanations, now to get your mouths watering with all the wonderful goodies we have in store for you... Our sincere thank to all those that have so generously provided such excellent lots, in particular our friends from Cadogan Keelan Westall in Bordon, who, as you can see, have donated a number of wonderful lots.
Browse, dream and then bid as high as you can afford...
