juliens auctions, bidding online in timed auctions
Has anyone bid online with Juliens? If so how do the timed auctions work? Does item number 5 end at the same time as number 29? I have reached out to Juliens but I havent really got a clear answer from them. Do you bid at the last second like ebay? thanks

That's odd that you are left feeling that you have not had a clear answer. It would seem that customer service would be able to answer any and all questions to your satisfaction as a potential bidder. I'd try again to seek an "official" answer from one of their reps. that is perfectly clear and understandable.

I was curious so I looked at the fine print on the Julien's site. From what I can gather, it seems that the lots are sold consecutively one after another during the live auctions.
There's this from their terms and conditions: "During a live auction the auctioneer may open any Lot by bidding on behalf of the Consignor and may bid up to the amount of the Reserve, by placing successive or consecutive bids for a Lot or Bids in response to other Bidders."
If the auctioneer is actively bidding up the price of a given lot for the consignor/owner against other bidders, then it would seem they would be taking each lot in order in real time to do that.
Maybe others have had experience with them and can clarify.

I've bi but not for a while and have been the only bidder and been outbid and have had items extend and then people outbid me and also had items end with only one bid so I'm not certain

so how long does the item extend for Dan? I think they put very low estimates on to encourage high bidding paradoxically. Were you outbid in the last minute on the item?

From memory it extended 30 minutes every time someone bid and kept extending so some auctions could last hours
-

coorect there estimates are way to low prably 1/4 to 1/10 of real value they do it on purpose

thanks for he clear answer Marc. And do you know if their shipping prices are reasonable or not over the pond? They are very slow at replying

there very slow about alot shipping takes up to 2 months after the auction ends . usuly 6 to 8 weeks . mine took 7 weeks to get me and i live very close to them yes i was shock .ps they slam your credit card instantanly for payment
no auction houses shipping rates are resonable with that in mind just depend what u are buying
ecpect 50$ for a poster at a minum .they dont use tubes everything is flat packed
ive paid alot worse than them
rule of thumb add 40% percent to what ever you buy to the hammer price and u will be pretty safe thats what i do
so if i pay 1k i expect to pay 1400$ all in to get the poster to me/shipping and fees
you just have to learn how to buy right
i bought a 600$ itiem at heritage and it cost 841 $ in all to get it to me .
