  2. Bidding should take place in the following format: Jane Smith $50.00. You will post a comment on the blog post representing the item you are bidding on. Bids cannot be placed on Facebook or via email. Once you've placed a bid, you need to send an email to Debi[@]imaginationstationtoystore.com with your NAME, PHONE NUMBER, and EMAIL ADDRESS. You only need to do this ONE time. If you fail to do so, your bid will be disqualified. We will confirm receipt of all Bidder Information by replying to the email.
  3. Winners will be notified by phone and email by 10:00 a.m. Thursday, May 30. Winners must bring payment in the form of CASH and pick up their prizes by 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. If not, the prize will be forfeited and the next highest bidder will be notified.
Bidding Rules:
  1. Each prize has been given a minimum starting bid and a value. Opening bid cannot be lower than the suggested starting bid.
  2. Bids will be placed by leaving a comment with your name and bid amount. *Please see #2 above for instructions regarding sending your contact information via email.
  3. Bid raises must be made in whole dollar amounts.
  4. In the event of a heated bidding war that comes down to the last minute, we will ask that all participants of the "war" submit a secret ballot with their highest bid. The prize will be awarded to the highest bidder at that point. This process can take place via email. If this procedure needs to take place, bidders will be notified Thursday morning at 9:00 a.m. when the auction closes.
Check Out Procedure:
  1. Winners will be notified by phone and email by 10:00 a.m. Thursday, May 30. Winners must bring payment in the form of CASH (see #2 below for exceptions) and pick up their prizes by 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. If not, the prize will be forfeited and the next highest bidder will be notified.
  2. Unfortunately, we cannot accept checks for auction items. We will be accepting credit cards on SELECT auction items. Due to the high value of the items as well as the ability for those outside of the immediate area to use these items, we will be accepting credit/debit card payment for them. Please see the details on EACH item for the specific form or payment accepted.
Coming Soon: Watch for a rolling start to the Auction beginning at 6 p.m. Monday, May 27th.
Below is a list of links to each auction page. When the link is "hot" it will be LIVE and ready for bidding.
