How long does the auction process take?

Auctions are online for an average of 10-14 days and sellers are paid within 2 weeks of the auction closing. The entire process typically takes around 30 days. Faster timelines can be accomodated.

How much does it cost?

Each auction project is unique and costs will depend on multiple factors. Affiliates of K-BID typically work on a commission and/or fee basis and will discuss costs with you after a free consultation.

Is there a minimum amount of items I would need to sell?

Affiliates are operating for-profit businesses and cannot accommodate all consignments if it does not make business sense. As a general guideline, a minimum of $500+ in asset value would be needed to warrant a consignment. Affiliates will guide you on items that are in demand and will create competitive bidding. Some collectible markets, outdated furniture, and electronics do not have much value in today's market and will not perform well in the auction format.

How do I know what items will sell for?

K-BID.com has 24,000+ closed auctions with price data to give you a range of what items have sold for in the past. On average, 20,000+ buyers search K-BID.com each day looking for items to bid on.

Do I have to bring the auction items somewhere?

Auctions can take place on-site at the client's location or at an affiliates location. On-site auctions are extremely popular as they reduce the costs and time required to transport assets. Buyers are only allowed on the auction site during the scheduled inspection and removal dates. The inspection and removal dates would be managed by the independent affiliate in charge of the auction.
