invited! Any and all Corvair <br>items will be sold to the highest
bidders. You can set a minimum <br>acceptable bid for your parts, or no
minimum bid at <br>all! Recession-buster: NJACE will collect a 5%
commission on the <br>sale of parts instead of the usual 10%. You may also
donate items <br>for the full benefit of the club. All you need to bring
is parts <br>and/or cash, and a folding chair on which to sit.<br><br>If you're
selling, the best way to go is to organize your parts at <br>home, so that you
can quickly fill out the Lot Cards that will be <br>used at the auction.
On the Lot Cards you will identify yourself, <br>the parts, and any minimum
acceptable bid you wish to establish.<br><br>On the morning of the auction there
will be time to set up your parts <br>and tag them if you have not yet done
so. By organizing in advance <br>at home, setup will be easier. If
you don't want to be bothered <br>tagging your parts and you just want to donate
them to the club, <br>bring 'em and we'll handle everything for you.
(Parts donations have <br>typically been one of our club's largest fund-raisers
each year.)<br><br>What kind of parts sell well? Obviously, clean parts in
good <br>condition, parts that are less common, and new-old-stock
<br>parts. Greasy, broken junk has little or no value, and the auction
<br>will prove this to you if you don't believe it. Leave the bent,
<br>rusty, broken stuff at home.<br><br>We encourage the selling of parts in
"lots." For example, sell an <br>instrument cluster and a glovebox door
together, not as separate <br>items. And we discourage the selling of too
many of the same <br>thing. For example, if you have six pairs of cylinder
heads to sell, <br>consider offering only one pair at the auction.<br><br>Once
setup is complete, the auctioneers will start picking parts and <br>auctioning
them off. Whatever is set for an item's minimum bid is <br>will be the
least bid accepted (and bids will be taken in even dollar <br>amounts as to make
bookkeeping easier).<br><br>If you're buying, you will be given a Bidder Number
which will be <br>used to record your purchase whenever you're the successful
<br>bidder. You'll receive your purchases on the spot, but you'll need
<br>to pay for them (by cash or check, cash preferred) before <br>leaving.
For this reason we ask that you be prepared to stay for the <br>full auction, so
that the bookkeepers can record all the sales and <br>tally the results without
interruption.<br><br>There will be a lunch break, and club will provide pizza
and soda at <br>no charge. (Who said that there's no such thing as a free
<br>lunch?) If you don't have any parts to sell come anyway -- there are
<br>always great bargains to be had and there are always plenty of
laughs.<br><br>The auction is a great way to see a lot of unusual parts and
enjoy <br>the competitive bidding. If you're looking for something in
<br>particular chances are good that you'll find it there.<br><br>The best part
about the auction is a chance to get together with a <br>great bunch of
people. The auction is fast paced and a lot of <br>fun. Directions
appear below. So come out on Saturday, February 13th.<br><br>Directions to
