Stack’s is excited to offer real time online bidding through our Stack's at Home™ program. This new program will allow you to view and listen to the auctioneer over the internet in real time allowing you to bid from the comfort of your home. No more dealing with the hassles of travel or the rising costs of transportation. You now have a direct real-time feed into the auctioneer. Instead of raising a paddle, you simply click a bid button.


A small application will be loaded onto your computer when you select the Install Process. Once installed, the application will provide live video and audio – think of it as a small television set loaded onto your computer. The system then calculates the next bid amount based on the terms located in the back of the catalog. The next bid amount is placed onto the bid button. Once the bid button is pressed the bid is raised to the auctioneer via a clerk at the auctioneer’s table – similar to how a phone bid would be raised. If your bid is accepted, you will show as the higher bidder with your bid button deactivated – so that you don’t bid against yourself. If you are outbid, then your bid button is reactivated to allow you to place another bid. When the lot is hammered you will receive a congratulatory message indicating you won the lot if you were the higher bidder.


All registered bidders are automatically enrolled in the Stack's at Home™ program. To participate, simply sign into the www.stacks.com website and select the auction you wish to participate in. You will see a ‘Live Video Bidding’ link. The first time you select this link you will be asked to install a small application. Once installed, a bidder screen will appear with a live video feed in the upper right corner and a bid button in the middle. To find out more about the bidder screen Click Here.
