To meet the challenges of COVID-19 and ensure the safety of our valued customers and staff, we will conduct our sales as LIVE VIRTUAL AUCTIONS. There will be no in-house audience until further notice. Bidding will be offered via phone/absentee and online.
You may bid by phone or leave an absentee bid that will be exercised by a Thomaston Place Auction Galleries’ representative. To bid by phone or to leave an absentee bid, you must fill out our
Phone/Absentee Bidder registration form and return the completed form by mail, email or fax. Once we have received your registration, you will be called to verify your phone number and/or to provide a credit card number. You will receive an email confirmation of your registration. We require current contact information and a valid credit card. If we do not a have a credit card number, your registration is not complete. All registration forms must be received no later than noon on the day preceding the auction. Bid forms received the day of the auction MAY NOT BE PROCESSED.
We offer three online platforms that allow you to leave an absentee bid and/or to bid live online during the auction.
Thomaston Live is our own in-house platform and is accessed through our online catalog. We also list our auctions on
Liveauctioneers.com and
Invaluable.com. Each platform has its own registration procedures. You will be notified when your registration has been approved.
Registering to bid through our online platform is separate from phone or absentee bidder registration. If you have registered as an absentee/phone bidder, you are
not automatically registered to bid on Thomaston Live and vice versa.
We accept payments in cash, by personal, business, bank or cashier's check, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover or PayPal (if you wish to pay online). Wire transfers may also be arranged upon request and are required for invoices in excess of $25,000. For your convenience, you may pay your invoice securely online by Paypal.
