Collective Hudson

Telephone Bid Form

Use this form to request live telephone bidding. Left bids / absentee bids must be placed online through our bidding portal.

Telephone Bids We call you before your lot and you bid live by phone.
Left Bids Placed online only. The system bids up to your maximum.
Deadline Submit requests at least 24 hours before the auction.

Left Bids / Absentee Bids

To leave a left bid / absentee bid, please use our online bidding portal at auctions.collectivehudson.com.

1

You Enter Your Maximum

This is the highest amount you are willing to pay before buyer's premium and any applicable taxes or fees.

2

The Platform Bids For You

The system bids only as needed in standard increments, up to but never over your maximum bid.

3

You May Pay Less

If competition is lower, you may win the lot for less than your maximum amount.

A maximum bid is not a guarantee that you will win.
If bidding reaches your maximum amount, another bidder may still win at that same amount depending on bidding activity, bid timing, platform rules, or live auction activity. Please enter the highest amount you are truly comfortable paying.

Think of your maximum bid as your spending limit, not a guaranteed purchase price. The online system will try to win the lot for you at the lowest amount possible, but another bidder can still compete against you.
