Here is what goes down around Here in Southern Ind ,.,Beckorts Are the self Proclaimed King of internet auctions ,. When He does a Live auction he stumbles thru it , IMHO. so, He seems to prefer internet , And I do too ,.
Here are My reasons:
The hours for inspection are set,or by appt,.. therfore , every Tom , Dik and harry are not hanging around your place a week before getting the auction ready.

pictures usually are better than real life, IMHO
Bid wars are more likely to happen
You have no idea who is bidding You Up. which helps the seller. used to be we All went by our e-mail addy name or initials,. I Knew Who CATman, dairydoer was,as well as , junkman, sorella,dirtdiger ,old goatee , and we would yield to one another ,.then they went to number coding and they changed at every auction.
One thing i can do is watch bid history and that helps me understand the resolve and their habits ,,. the 2 AM bidders must have insomnia , and will bail if they could get out bid .
from the sellers standpoint it is a win -win , IMHO , You Dont have a crowd swarming your place at auction day ,
You Have the luxury of removing a item a few days before the auction ends , At Least BECKORTS offers that option .
You Also Can tell if your auction is going to be a success based on bidder reaction ,. That is if you are seasoned with such auctions .
THE Last HOUR is THE TRICKIEST OF ALL .When time is about to expire there is a stopwatch , If someone bids in the last 5 minutes the END time is extended another 5 minutes . This is WHERE THE CRAZY BID WARS can occur , , My Sara(case in Point ) was all windup on a washer dryer outfit, She sat at 60 bux for a week, then on auction day bounced up to 125 with her help,. I advise her to stop biddin , until last 5 minutes and then submit her hi bid Which was 175 in her mind,. Then I went out and raked hay ,.about 8 hours later i came in , the auction ended,And she was Happy ",I Got The Washer/dryer" , "Great , Did you get in for 175 or less?" , "Haleno,They PiztMe off,but i got it for all $390 ",My laughter at her indignance and Her being adamant about paying only 175 bux . LOL blowed my beer threw my nose i just took a chuga lug from.,. Sara Said ," I had it at 175 , with only 2 minutes left and "shauna' was not bidding any more. When this Idiot "Charlies car wash " threw in a bid, HOW DARE HIM ,that jakaz,ITS MINE,So I run His AZ UP till he quit" LOL
