The Radio Auction will be broadcast live on KINA and PRIME 94.5 and can be heard through the Listen Here links on each auction page. Additionally, SalinaPost.com will have a live stream of the auction.

On-air introduction of items during the radio auction take precedence over the times listed on the sale bill and some items are subject to move.


How do I bid on an auction item?

We encourage you to view the Radio Auction items on this website for the most up-to-date information. It will have the day and time each item will be introduced for bid. Simply call 1-833-884-9954 and place your bid on the items you want to purchase. Our bid takers will record your bid along with your name and (very important) a phone number where you may be reached approximately one hour after the auction item has been “closed out.”


Can I bid on an auction item if I’ll be out of town?

If you’d like to bid on an item, but you’ll be out of town or otherwise unavailable during the auction, you may call 1-833-884-9954 prior to the auction to submit your maximum bid. We will contact you to confirm the high bid. You may even win your item at less than your maximum bid!


How do I know if my bid is the highest?

As in any auction, items will be sold to the highest bidder. First, the item will be introduced on the air. After the item has received a number of bids, we will announce that the item will now be “closed out.” The announcers will indicate the current bid on the item at the time it is “closed out.”  IMPORTANT:  When an item is “closed out,” it simply means our announcers will no longer be talking about the item on the air. LISTENERS MAY STILL BID ON THE ITEM AFTER IT HAS BEEN CLOSED OUT. SELECT ITEMS WILL HAVE A RESERVE ON THEM. THE RESERVE WILL BE MENTIONED AS THE ITEMS ARE INTRODUCED. IF RESERVE IS NOT MET, RESERVE ITEMS WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM SALE.


Our Confirming Department will attempt to contact the THREE HIGHEST bidders. This is why it is so important to provide the Bid Takers the correct phone number where you may be reached approximately one hour after the item has been closed out. If you are one of the three highest bidders, our Bid Confirmer will make every effort to contact you to inform you of the current bid and will give you the opportunity to enter the highest bid.


This process will continue (by phone) until there is the highest bidder is determined.


CAUTION: Please do not assume if you place a single bid on an item that our Confirmation Department will contact you after the item has been closed out. You may not be one of the TOP THREE HIGHEST BIDDERS. To maximize your chances of winning an auction item we recommend placing your HIGHEST bid during the live auction or immediately after the item has been “closed out.” When placing your bid you may request that our Confirmation Department contact you prior to selling the item.
