When bidding on an item, you may choose to place a maximum bid representing the highest amount you’re willing to pay at the moment. The automatic bidding technology will then place incremental bids on your behalf based on the bid increment. It will always place the lowest bid necessary, but will never go higher than your maximum bid.
The online auction begins closing on Thursday, September 19 at 2:00 p.m. Be sure to verify the closing time of your favourite items.
Successful bidders will be asked to make payment for their pieces on the auction site using a credit card. Payments will not be processed at the school – no cash payments will be permitted. Please note, a 5% service fee will be applied at checkout.
Shipment for most items can be arranged for purchasers outside the GHA. Shipping fees are extra and to be paid by the purchaser. Shipping requests can be made to bid@dvsa.ca.
Extended Bidding is activated for items and will extend the closing time by 2 minutes if a bid is placed in the final minute before closing.
