Buying with John Moran
Step 1: Find It
Step 2: Bid On It
In Person
Come to the auction! We cater each event, and registration is easy; you just need a photo I.D. and a credit card.
Absentee and Telephone
Can’t make it? Fill out our bidder registration form and submit it via our website, email, or fax at least 24 hours before the sale. We aren’t kidding, time makes a difference in completing your request. Sooner is always better.
Buyer’s Premium and Taxes
Don’t forget that our buyer’s premium and any applicable state tax will be added to the hammer price of the items you purchase.
Step 3: Pay For It
Congratulations, you are the winning bidder!
We ask that you pay for your purchase(s) and pick up within 5 business days. It’s important to note that any payments made after that window will incur a 1% monthly late fee and a $10 per lot, per day, storage fee added to your invoice
To avoid all that, we make paying for your purchases easy. Pay via Moran’s secure online option with your ACH bank details, or credit card (for an additional 3.5% service fee) or send us a wire transfer. You can always snail mail a check if you prefer that method.
Step 4: Get It
Moran’s does not ship or provide estimates for shipping. A list of our recommended shippers is below; you are welcome to contact them directly for quotes. Once you know who you would like to use for shipping (or if you are sending a third party to pick up on your behalf), fill out the release form and submit it online, or download it and send it via email or fax. If you are picking up an item, call ahead to expedite the process.
