If you have not registered for any of our previous auctions, why don't you register for this auction now? Note if you get an error that your username or email exists, you may have already registered and you don't need to register again and you only need to log in (see below). If you have registered for any of our previous auctions, you do not need to register again; you only need to log in. If you believe you did register before, but perhaps have forgotten your username or password, you can just retrieve them. Our 50th auction offers 260 lots. We begin with “Nifty-Ninety” items to get your attention as to what the overall auction is like. After that the auction lots are listed in CD order, then U-Number order for porcelain, and finally alphabetically by topic. One of those topics is “Box Lots”. Again we are offering wholesale lots of insulators for those of you who want to add to your sales stock, or just buy a bunch of stuff at once.Note: the "TEN minute timer" is now the "SIX minute timer" to speed up the auction closing. The process works exactly the same way. At 10:00 PM (eastern) the SIX minute timer starts. Like before, the time next to each item indicates when it will close. The only difference is when there is a bid, the clock is only advanced SIX minutes rather than TEN minutes. If you have any questions, please contact us. Please do NOT bid in this auction if you are not going to be able to pay within 30 days of the end of the auction. That makes April 16th as the deadline to pay. We had two “buyers” in our February auction that have not paid. They will be blocked from bidding in this and future auctions. We offer numerous ways to pay including check, money order, Zelle, Venmo, ApplePay, PayPal, and credit or debit cards. Credits: An auction isn’t possible without the work of many people. We wish to thank the following authors and online publishers for their research: Elton Gish for his porcelain insulator books; Bob Berry for the NIA’s gallery of foreign insulators; and Don Briel for the Price Guide. We also express our appreciation to our webmaster Bill Meier; to a friend who anonymously helped with some of the photography; and to Tim & Joanne Wood who help pack up your purchases. Hobbies first and foremost should be fun. We hope you will enjoy this auction. Howard & Linda Banks 1073 NW 26th Way Redmond, OR 97756 541-761-9456 hbanks@budget.net |
