Let's chat about online bidding!
Here on this online bidding platform, you can watch and bid live just as if you were with us in person! You will have listings available to you ahead of time, you’ll know the hip number of your favorites and the order they will sell in. This will make it easy for our online bidders to participate and hopefully get the horse(s) they have their eyes on! As additional photos and/or videos become available of consigned horses we will add them here! Check back often! At sale time, you'll have REAL TIME video & audio and bid buttons available to you and you can join us from anywhere in the world with a reliable internet or cellular connection!
As soon as a horse is posted, early absentee bidding becomes available to you! This works much like ebay for those of you familiar with that. You can place your maximum bid ahead of time and the computer will then act as your agent at sale time, bidding on your behalf by minimum increments to keep you in the lead. This option is useful for those of you with poor internet/cell service at home, those who are unable to watch live for any reason, and also for you folks who find the fast pace of a live auction to be intimidating. PLEASE NOTE that if you place an early absentee bid and that animal comes into the ring with an announcement that changes the information that was available to you when you placed your bid (i.e. the horse cribs but that was not disclosed in the listing) we will NOT honor your pre-bid for your protection. We want you to bid with the most accurate information available!
For those of you who prefer to watch and bid live, you’ll have real time audio/video available to you at sale time! Make sure you have registered to bid, are logged in, and then hit the “View Live” button on the live feed! You’ll be good to go and can participate just as if you were here in person!
For those of you using an iPhone or iPad, we do recommend downloading the Horse Auctions USA app for the best bidding experience! It is available FREE to download from the App Store! Alternatively, you can absolutely use your Safari browser. If you have an Android device or are using your computer, you can absolutely bid using our website in the browser you are most comfortable with. We do recommend using Google Chrome but most any browser will work!
You will need to register with a credit/debit card in order to bid online. Please note that a pre-authorization for $500 will be placed on your registered card. This is NOT a charge, just an authorization to verify you are indeed a real person with a real card and is a good faith hold to allow you to bid. This authorization will fall off once the sale is complete and any purchases you have made are paid for. You DO NOT have to pay for your purchases with this card – cash or check at pick up is perfectly acceptable!
Winning bidders will be contacted by the Waverly Horse Sale office to finalize payment. Waverly Horse Sales accepts credit cards with a 4% convenience fee and wire transfer for payment.
Winning bidders are responsible for pick up/shipping arrangements of purchased animals. If animals cannot be picked up by Noon the following day, board is available at the sale for a fee of $35/day
If you need any assistance with online bidding or have any questions pertaining to it, please call/text Bridget at (336) 904-8903. YES, you can register while the sale is ongoing, however, we do recommend registering BEFORE the horses start selling so we can get you any needed assistance before sale time! That way, you won't miss a thing!
