How auctions work at Jarvis's Auction House

Simple, local, and built to feel like saving money.

1. 1
   Find something you want

   Browse Jarvis's Auction House's live auctions and lots. Tap “Watch” on anything you’re tracking — you’ll know the moment you’re winning or outbid.

2. 2
   Bid your max

   Set the most you’d pay and we bid for you, one increment at a time, up to your limit. Your max stays hidden.

3. 3
   Last-second bids extend the lot

   A bid in the final moments adds about 60 seconds, so nobody snipes you at the buzzer.

4. 4
   Win, then settle simply

   Winners pay the hammer price plus a 18% buyer’s premium and 7% sales tax. Some lots are “Buy It Now” — that price is the price.

5. 5
   Pick it up locally — no shipping

   Choose a pickup time at checkout; your invoice shows exactly where and when.
