What is Equip-Bid?
Equip-Bid is an online auction venue that publishes online auctions for a large number of independent auction companies (affiliates) on our website, Equip-Bid.com.
How do auctions work?
Auctions on Equip-Bid are timed online auctions. Auctions are scheduled to end on a specific date and time and all bids are placed online. Bidders are given the opportunity to inspect each item to determine its value and condition before the auction closes. The difference between Equip-Bid and some other auction websites is that winning bidders are responsible for pick-up and pay for the item during the scheduled removal date at the auction location. Shipping should not be assumed but is available on some auctions.
