Broadcasting a Message to Bidders During a Sale

During a live sale, there are times that the clerk will need/want to share a message with the participants online.

There are three messaging options in the clerk console:

• Fair warning:
  • This flashes a "fair warning" message on the screen for the user, letting them know the bidding on that particular item is about to close. 
  • You do not have to use fair warning AND last call buttons, it is the preference of the auctioneer.

• Last call:
  • This flashes "last call" on the screen for the user, letting them know the bidding on that particular item is about to close. 
  • You do not have to use fair warning AND last call buttons, it is the preference of the auctioneer.

• A Custom message: on the right side of the screen, under bid history, is an area you can use to broadcast a custom message.
