AuctionFlex & Hibid.com


We use Auctionflex Auction Management Software on all of our auctions. Through this software we can keep detailed reports for all of our clients, bidders and items sold. By using this software we speed up the whole auction process from registration, clerking, cashing out, settlement and check processing.
We are set up to run up to 3 auction rings and 3 cashiering stations insuring that even the biggest auction is processed with speed and efficiency. 

Combining that with our online host, Hibid, your online and simulcast auctions are sure to be a fast paced, fun and easy experience from start to finish.
