<VV> Reminder: Corvair Parts Auction in New Jersey

[Vairtec Corporation]

The NJ Association of Corvair Enthusiasts' annual indoor Parts Auction 
is scheduled for this Saturday, February 19, indoors at Ashley's Auto 
Body on Hillside Avenue in Flanders, New Jersey.  All interested persons 
are invited to attend.

At this event, new and used Corvair parts are sold at auction, with a 
10% commission of the sale price going to the club treasury.  You may 
bring parts to sell, you may buy, or you may do both!

Lunch is included at no charge!

Directions appear below.  Here is what you need to know to fully enjoy 
the day:

First, plan on making a day of it.  Due to the nature of how the auction 
operates, it is not possible to process any buyers or sellers until the 
auction is completed.  We begin the bidding at 11 AM, take a pizza break 
at 12:30, resume the bidding at 1 PM, and finish up typically around 
2:30 PM.  Only at that time can we tally the sales, collect from the 
buyers, and pay the sellers.

Second, plan on getting there early.  We'll open the doors at 9:30 AM, 
to allow time to tag and display any parts you are selling, and to allow 
you to peruse the parts being offered.

If you're selling, you will need to fill out a Lot Card for each part or 
group of parts being sold individually, so please allow sufficient time 
to do this before the start of bidding.

If you are buying -- or even if you think you are not buying -- you will 
be issued a Bidder Number by which the auction desk will track all 
purchases.

We ask that items being offered be limited to Corvair parts or 
Corvair-related items, only.  Typically we have upwards of 200 lots to 
get through, so we are not able to deal with items outside of this 
parameter.

Also, we ask that you not bring more than one of the same item to sell. 
It is difficult to sell, in an auction setting, multiples of the same 
thing.  You can, however, sell multiple items in a  "lot." You could 
offer, say, one lot of six oil filters, instead of six individual oil 
filters.

Remember that only quality items sell easily, and that greasy, rusty 
junk will not only not sell, our very picky auctioneers may not even try 
to sell it!  Bent and broken pieces have limited appeal.

Bring along a folding chair on which to sit!

The club will deduct a 10% commission on all sales.  You may also donate 
items for the full benefit of the club.

Again, the doors open at 9:30 AM for setup, on Saturday, February 19, 
rain, snow, or shine!
