Simulcast Online Bidding at Live Auction: Online bidders must pre-register at www.pottsbrothers.com. During the live auction, online bidders can participate and must bid at a pre-determined bid increments. Online bid increments are similar amounts as are being asked at the live auction, but not as flexible to change as at the live event. The online bid assistant at the live auction will only be able to accept pre-determined bid increments from online bidders. We will also have pre-determined combinations of tracts for online bidders plus being offered as a whole. We welcome online bidding but due to online bidding platforms, there is not a tremendous amount of flexibility during the actual live auction when multiple parcels are being offered. Please remember, the bids in the first and opening round of bidding were buyers choose their tract or tracts are being bid per acre. The acre bid is then multiplied by the acres in the tract for the contract price. Once the combinations begin, the bid amount is in regular dollar amounts. Please call before the auction for more clarification if needed.
