How to Bid Online - Step 1

Bidding online is easy. You can hear the auctioneer, see pictures and descriptions of each item as it is sold and place bids – all in real time. You can even bid in multiple auctions or auction rings! See a preview of our online bidding interface or read through the bidding steps below:

1. On auction day, go to the rbauction.com web site and select “Bid” next to the auction you’ve registered for on the auction calendar. This will appear on the calendar about 45 minutes before the auction starts. Log in to your account using your Member ID and password. Select the rbauctionBid Info tab and enter your PIN below your Express Bidder number.

Remember: before you bid on auction day you must first sign up as an online bidder and register to bid. Find out how to sign up or how to register now.

Online Bidding Software

We’ve made some enhancements to our online bidding service.

Please note: you must install the new 2009 online bidding software in order to bid or view an auction online. Please install the software well in advance of the auction to avoid any technical issues. Previous versions of the rbauctionBid-Live online bidding software must be replaced.
