HOW DOES A QUARTER AUCTION WORK?
As a quarter auction participant, arrive at least half an hour in advance of the start time, loaded with tons of quarters. You want to arrive early so you have the opportunity to view all the items being auctioned off. You will also need to arrive early to make sure you get a seat. Some venues have been known to sell out!
When you arrive, you’ll find a table where they are selling paddles and making change in quarters. Here you pick a numbered paddle (or two, or three) that you will use as your bidding number(s). You’ll pay a rental fee of $5 for the paddle and you’ll return the paddle at the end of the auction. The person selling the paddles will put a corresponding numbered chip into a bucket.
When the auction begins, each item will be displayed to the crowd and auctioned off. At this time, you will use your quarters and paddle(s) to bid. Each item has a retail value that determines the number of quarters required per paddle to bid. Ex. 1 quarter for an item with a $10 – $25 value, 2 quarters for $26 – $50 value, and so on up to 4 quarters.
Once you deposit the required number of quarters per paddle to bid (quarters are dropped into bowls on the tables and collected) you can raise your paddle(s) in the air. The announcer will begin calling numbers from the chips in their bucket. If the announcer calls a number that wasn’t played (the person didn’t bid and raise their paddle), that person with the number will yell out, “No bid.” The announcer will continue calling numbers until there is a winner amongst those who bid and had their paddles raised in the air.
