UX Search links to these auction sites and is not affiliated with them. Bidding, payment and pickup happen on each site, under its own rules.
Before you bid
- Everything is sold as-is. Government sellers rarely guarantee condition. Read the description closely and inspect when you can.
- Know the pickup rules. Most government sales give you a short window to remove items, and you load them yourself.
- Count the fees. Some government platforms add a buyer’s premium; others don’t. Check each listing.
- Watch closing times. Many government auctions extend when bids come in at the last minute.
