Come on down to Columbus for a fun auction!!!
The main intent of the auction is for hobbyists to sell captive propagated corals and used drygoods.
Some vendors will be donating farmed and aquacultured frags to the auction.
CORA membership is not required, but always encouraged.
Last year we had about 100 items. This year we'll try to double that!!!
SELLERS:
Show up at 11:00 AM and register your stuff.
We'll auction it off - Starting at 12 Noon.
.... If you're there, you can breifly describe the item to the crowd.
.... We'll probably bring the camera and projector so the crowd can see small frags.
CORA keeps $1 per entry + 10% of the sale price.
Within 17 days, we'll mail you a check for the rest!!!!
Non-frag livestock (such as macro algae, pods, fish or large colonies you no longer want) are allowed.
Freshwater livestock and equipment is not ruled out, but there's no guarantee how it will sell since this is a mostly saltwater crowd.
For drygoods, please don't use the auction to "unload junk" from your fishroom.
For expensive drygoods... We charge $5 per item to set a minimum price - although no one did that last year.
BUYERS:
Show up at 12 Noon and Bring Cash.
Bid on the Frags and Drygoods you want.
If you need to leave early, you can pay $1 to prioritize an item - but that does not guarantee you'll win the bidding.
Take your loot home and enjoy.
