NEW FEATURE(s):(most of this is left posted for our KeesieFriends who may not be familiar with the new EF bidding process!)
CHANGE in bidding procedure: The recently new automated bidding continues this month, but with one minor change: you enter ALL fields on the item page, rather than just bid amount there, and name/email on prebid page. Now, enter bid amount, name AND email address right on the item page, and then "verify" the bid on the prebid page.....doublecheck info before using the final BID NOW button to process the bid! You MUST click the BID NOW button on that page for the bid to be processed! If you have questions beyond mentioned here, see the "news" page and read about the NEW BIDDING process.
ALL items are viewable in "thumbnail" form on the Listing Page(below). Click on any title/image/number for an item and learn more about that particular package. On those individual item pages, is where you can also bid from. On the individual page, beneath each item is a spot to put in a bid amount, name, and email address. This then takes you to a "verification" page with information confirming your intended bid(prior to finalizing it). Doublecheck the details. Then, click "BID NOW" to process the bid. ALL bids are logged and new high bidder is sent a confirmation notice. Previous high bidder is sent an outbid notice, and we are sent a confirmation notice for logging as well.
Nightly updates are sent ONCE per day(usually early evening) during the auction, and are sent for each item to the high bidder at that time. If you are high bidder on 3 items, you'll receive 3 nightly update notices. If you're outbid, you'll no longer receive notices on that item unless you become high bidder again.
If you are NOT receiving a notice you believe you should be receiving, let us know ASAP! We'll look into the matter, however, make SURE you enter your name/email address correctly on the bidding pages first!
CURRENT running grand total is available on the Listing Page(here), as well as "current" item bids. The individual item bids are also on their own pages; the listing page just shows an overview.
Minor changes to things for this auction include: pages now programmed to be "current" all along. Prebid and Bidding pages also now END with the auction(bids CANNOT be made once the auction has ended...you'd get a "sorry" notice if you're in the process and miss it by a few seconds, so get your bids in WELL BEFORE the end of the auction! The moment the auction finishes, all the auction pages(sans main EF front) will reflect the final results. In the first hours after an auction, these will be "preliminary" results, until we verify all of the bids/information. When Pat sends out the "Official Notice" to high bidders the following day, these are considered final results. But, overall, the pages are now more "live" and require less maintenance, so we hope they'll be more useful to everyone!
Names and Email addresses are NOT posted during the auction. If you prefer to have a bid "Anonymous" write to Pat and tell her which one, etc. We'll work that out. If there are ANY problems bidding, let us know as well. Please let us know what you think or if you have any suggestions, ideas!
The Rest: is pretty much similar. Listing Page shows ALL items, Info page is for "who" the fundraiser is held, and the Front page is the front door/basic info page! ALL main areas of this auction are accessible from the "auction bar"(that little grey bar at the top of the pages...is now ALSO at the bottom of most pages!).

Thanks for taking the time to look over the items...lots of great stuff here, folks! Do enjoy, and thanks for helping in...
