Due to COVID-19 precautions sealed bids will be due to our Bloomington, IL office at 12:00 Noon on November 13, 2020. Similar to most of our auctions in the past, we are asking bidders to complete a sealed bid form before the auction to register to bid. In the current environment we have to limit the number of attendees. As a result, the top ten sealed bids will be invited to a private auction on November 18, 2020 where they will be afforded the opportunity to raise bids to determine a final high bidder. Qualified Bidders will have the option of attending the private auction in person or remotely via our online bidding platform. If you have any questions regarding the process, please contact us at 309-665-0955.
