Patri Pugliese Memorial Auction

In 2008 we raised a little over $2,000 for Patri's girls college fund, thanks to the generosity of our vendors listed below and our participants.

 

2009 will be our second Patri Pugliese Memorial auction.  All the profits will go to support a college fund set up for his two girls.  For those not familiar with Patri please click the image for a better understanding of the major impact he had on Western Martial Arts. 
 

 If you would be interested in donating an item or have any questions, please email Jared Kirby.

Some Terms and Conditions

 

How can I bid? ISMAC will offer the following bidding options:

     In person: Please arrive 20-30 minutes before the auction to view the auction items.

     Written Bid:  If you cannot attend the auction, you may be able to leave a written bid (at the discretion of ISMAC).  Email Jared Kirby, for approval and then specify your maximum bid amount on the lots of interest, and make sure it is received by Jared no later than one week before the auction.

What information do you need from me to bid? You will be asked to provide your name, address, telephone number and email address.

 

Buying terms:  The successful bidder is required to pay at the time of a successful bid.  You can pay by cash, check or credit cards (via paypal.com).  The winning bidder will take the property to the cashier to make the payment immediately after winning (concessions will be made for multiple item winners).

 

What are the standard bidding increments? While the auctioneer may vary the increments at their discretion, usually bidding increases in the following increments:

0-100 (by 5); 100-200 (by 10); 200-300 (by 20); 300-500 (by 20/50/80); 500-1,000 (by 50); 1,000-2,000 (by 100); 2,000-3,000 (by 200); 3,000-5,000 (by 200/500/800); 5,000-10,000 (by 500); 10,000-20,000 (by 1,000); 20,000-30,000 (by 2,000); 30,000- 50,000 (by 2,000/5,000/8,000).

This pattern may repeat continuously.  At a bidder’s discretion, a bid can be called out as long as it conforms to a standard bidding increment.  Bidding will start at ½ the retail value of the item.

 

What is the best way to learn about a lot that interests me? Property in our auction is sold "as is," and examining property in person is the best way to learn about it. Pre-auction viewing will begin prior to the auction and provide an opportunity to personally inspect the property.
