Types of Auctions

Online Only Auctions
These are auctions that are totally conducted and transacted through 100% online bidding via the internet, powered by Auction Flex/Hibid custom Hayden Outdoors auction website. Typically, these are timed events where the buyer has a certain number of days or hours to competitively bid on property with a designated close time.

Live Outcry Auctions
These are the traditional auction events that are held on site or at a neutral location, and are conducted by the auctioneer “calling the bid” in a traditional auction chant style.

Live/Online Auctions
These are auctions where the seller and buyer can conceivably get the best of both worlds. These auctions combine the “live outcry” method and the “online” auction method. Buyers can choose either to show up at the auction and bid to the auctioneer “live” or bid live real time online via the internet.

Sealed Bid Auctions
Each interested bidder submits a single, irrevocable bid without knowledge of the other bids. When the bidding period is closed, the bids are opened simultaneously, and the winner is the highest bidder. In some cases the seller may direct the top 3-5 bidders to be called in for a live auction, this is generally detailed in the auction terms and conditions and is set before the auction date.
