Bidding and buying with WSM

Two auction formats, one simple path: register free, preview in person, bid from anywhere. Registration takes about five minutes and works for every sale we run.

Register once, bid anywhere

Create a free account on the platform running the sale — HiBid for timed Tuesday auctions, Proxibid for the monthly Saturday sale. No deposit, and the account works for every future WSM auction.

Preview at the yard

Every lot is on the yard before the sale. Walk in weekdays 7:00–3:30, look it over, start it, ask Gage or Blue about it. What you see is what sells.

Bid online or pre-bid

Tuesday sales are timed with a soft close — late bids extend the clock. Saturday sales are called live by our auctioneers, merging your pre-bids with real-time bidding.

Pay and haul

Invoices arrive at close. Pay by Tuesday 3:30 PM, remove by Thursday 3:30 PM — we’ll help you load.

Create your bidder account

Register on the platform running the sale you want — accounts are free on all three, with no deposit.

Bidder questions

Do I need to pay a deposit to bid?

No. Registration is free on all three platforms — HiBid, Proxibid and EquipmentFacts — with no deposit required.

What is the buyer’s premium?

The monthly Saturday vehicle & equipment sale carries a 13% buyer’s premium; the online miscellaneous (tools & materials) sales carry 15%. Sales tax of 9.1% applies to the hammer price plus the premium.

Can I inspect items before bidding?

Yes — the yard at 1616 S. 67th Ave, Phoenix is open for public preview Monday through Friday, 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM. No appointment needed.

How do I pay after winning?

Invoices go out when the auction closes. Pay by cash, cashier’s check, wire transfer, or card in person (3% card fee). Personal and business checks are not accepted. Payment is due by 3:30 PM on the Tuesday following the sale.

When do I pick up my items?

Pickup starts the Monday after the sale at 7:00 AM and items must be removed by Thursday 3:30 PM. A $25 per day storage fee applies to items not paid for by Tuesday.

Are the vehicles emissions-tested or warrantied?
