Internet Bidders to vie with Floor Bidders using the company's exclusive Live Auction Website

Chase City, VA (PRWEB) June 4, 2005 -- The live auction industry grew to a whopping $217.2 billion in sales in the year 2004, according to The National Auctioneer's Association.

"Combine the rising popularity of live auctions with the growth potential of the Internet, and you can see why traditional Auction Houses need to take their auctions online" says Jim Francis, President of Royal Auction Services, a traditional full-service auction house based in Virginia.

The Internet Live Auction market is currently dominated by the likes of eBay Live.com and ProxyBid.com. However, there is plenty of scope for traditional brick-and-mortar auction houses, which can provide a wider range of services and facilities to its customers.

"A full-service auction house can provide much more than a platform for buying and selling online" asserts Francis. Currently in its fifth year of operation, Royal Auction Services is in the final stages of implementing its Internet-based live auction module. But the company is no newcomer to the area of live auctions, with two generations of live auction experience and an auction facility that is "one of the largest in the area."

Citing 'Service' as their competitive edge, the company boasts of facilities that no Internet-based auction company can match, including:

- Spacious live auction facility.
- Capability to conduct auctions at the consignor's site.
- Several acres of secure, fenced-in storage area at the Chase City Fairgrounds.
- 10,000-sq. ft. retail store for year-round display and direct sales.
- Several large tractor-trailers to move heavy machinery, excess inventory or an entire estate in one trip. Smaller trucks and trailers for smaller consignments.
- Dedicated online auction module and phone bidding service.
- eBay trading assistance for small or unique consignments, with daily UPS pick-up and freight services.
- Option to purchase direct from sellers
- Experienced staff to serve the needs of businesses, financial organizations, local government, professionals and individual consignors.

"While our primary aim is to enable remote bidders and consignors to participate in our live auctions," said Francis, "We were surprised that a remarkable number of local buyers wanted to bid online," he added.

"Despite being a registered trading assistant on eBay, we opted to develop our own online auction website for the exclusive use of our customers," said Francis "We wanted to make online auctions more cost-competitive for everyone. With most of our large auction events, the added eBay fees would have made it impractical to bid online. Also, we need to keep our floor bidders informed about sale results."

With traditional auction houses taking their auctions online, customers can enjoy 'the best of both worlds' by taking part in a live auction online. "Imagine the convenience of bidding from your home PC, coupled with a wide range of services and facilities that only a full-service, traditional auction house can provide. That's our Internet auction module for you," concluded Francis, setting an exciting precedent for the future of live auction events.

Royal Auctions will conduct it’s trial run of it new auction module on June 24, 2005 at 6:00 p.m. Internet customers will be able to bid from the comfort of their homes, against the live crowd at the auction house. Registration is required prior to the auction for all attendee’s that wish to participate in the bidding. Photo’s and descriptions of the items will be posted on the website well in advance of the auction.

Local warehouse keeps tobacco auction alive

By JUSTIN STORY

One local tobacco warehouse will be alive this fall with the sound of the auctioneer's call, as the Burley Marketing Association in Kentucky announced this week that Kentucky King Tobacco Warehouse and five other Kentucky warehouses will hold independent auctions this year.

This year has marked a sea of change for burley tobacco growers, as they take their first tentative steps in a new economy after the federal tobacco buyout eliminated the price support system the government had in place since the Depression.

The federal buyout means that tobacco farmers now have to contract directly with cigarette manufacturers to sell their crop, whereas in the past farmers also had the option of a guaranteed sale at auctions.

With fewer people growing burley this year, and with the remaining crops selling for less, however, having one warehouse open for auction gives concerned farmers more opportunity to sell their tobacco.

"This year, more than ever, tobacco farmers need an alternative in selling their tobacco to maintain a competitive market for their product," the Burley Marketing Association said in a news release.

Though an old method of selling tobacco returns to Kentucky King, the current parameters apply.

"The auction will not have the price support of the burley co-op," said Mason County Extension Agent Bill Peterson.

Two months ago, Peterson said he anticipated 25-30 percent less tobacco to be grown in the county this year compared to last year.

Compounding the diminished crop, farmers that operated under the federal price support system are losing money on their tobacco sales this year.

"This year burley is selling at about 45-50 cents lower than last year's support prices," said Peterson. "There are some (farmers) that have indicated they want that option this year to sell through the auction."

In recent years, the vast majority of burley had been sold through direct contracts, though Maysville's tobacco warehouses could still attract many growers and quota holders until the end of the auction system.

Kentucky King Warehouse owner Elden Ginn could not be reached for comment.

Other Kentucky warehouses holding auctions this year are located in Mount Sterling, Lexington, Danville, Harrodsburg and Somerset.

Times and dates for the auction will be set this fall.

Lost Items Going Going Gone.

TALLAHASSEE - The forgotten trinkets and heirlooms of lost lives accumulate in Thomas Egler's state government office every summer.

Behind a locked door and sign-in post, boxloads of loot from the bowels of bank vaults -- from gold and gems to revolvers, false teeth and cremated remains -- is carted into Florida's Bureau of Unclaimed Property vault in Tallahassee.

Egler, the vault supervisor, inventories the detritus until an heir is found or it is auctioned off.

The next auction is scheduled for July in Fort Lauderdale. For the second year in a row, it's due to be simulcast online through the auctioneering company's Web site. But the sales have gotten so successful, and the pot of lost valuables so much bigger, that Florida wants to make the auction online year-round.

"We just don't have the room to store all these items. We make a diligent attempt to find the owners. When that fails, then of course we have to liquidate it into cash," Egler said.

"I'd rather give it back to its owner than sell it."

Most of the valuables are easily sold. Nobody wants the private oddities, the stuffed pets and toupees.

Under every postmark and brown wrapping is a mystery. Egler and his small staff often marvel at the knick-knacks and treasures they find, and what they reveal about the people who accumulated them.

They've found coins from the Spanish treasure galleon Atocha, which sank in a hurricane off the Keys in 1622.

"We've seen a vault that had nothing but fur coats in it," Egler recalled. "We have a boarding pass for the Lusitania. We had, a couple years ago, a whole lot of items from Bonnie and Clyde -- photographs of the bodies, photographs of the cars. A whole bunch of letters."

Florida, like most states, takes possession of lockboxes, securities and bank accounts when financial institutions lose track of their owners. State lawmakers have made it a thriving enterprise for government, passing laws in recent years that have opened the gates for unclaimed liquid currency to flow into state coffers.

Last year, a record $173.3 million in unclaimed financial assets went into the fund that provides state aid to school districts, up from $73 million in 2000. And thanks to a bill passed this year to crack down on private firms that charge a fee to find owners, Florida expects at least a $56 million surge again next year.

By comparison, the safe-deposit boxes the state takes over reap only chump change. The contents are turned over after a box goes unused for three years. Florida investigators usually spend another year trying to find an heir, then the items are auctioned off. Last year's unclaimed property auction in Miami netted $806,312.

Owners never lose the right to claim their money. The state sets aside enough money to pay claims and uses the balance in a trust fund to support public education.

Jose Villalobos, a West Miami city attorney and the father of state Senate Majority Leader Alex Villalobos, dropped by the auction in July 2004, he said, after buying a personal watercraft at a separate federal government auction of seized property.

"I didn't know there was so much unclaimed property. I was just curious," he said. "I didn't go to shop; I just came out to look."

Over the years, millions of dollars in Floridians' goods has been sold off at auctions in Tampa, Orlando and South Florida to retirees and jewelry dealers, the deep-pocketed and politically connected.

The biggest buyers have been out-of-state dealers from New York, Arizona and Tennessee, state records show. Several Floridians also make the list. The hottest sale items? Watches and jewelry.

Marilyn Varcoe, a Naples psychologist, went to last year's auction to try to buy back some of the $60,000 in jewelry that burglars stole from her home in 1997. The jewelry was seized by police. Unable to prove it was hers, Varcoe was told she could buy her belongings back at the state auction.

Many of the stolen pieces were collected from her travels to China, Turkey, Athens and Cairo. She found them lumped into large plastic bags with other pieces sold in bulk. The crowd of professional dealers and Miami sophisticates was intimidating, she said. Varcoe didn't hang around for long, and walked away with only the $770 the state gave her from the sale of some of the jewelry.

The Positive Club

People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I don't believe in circumstances.

The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and, if they can't find them, make them.

Most people live, whether physically, intellectually or morally, in a very restricted circle of their potential being.

They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness, and of their soul's resources in general, much like a man who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into a habit of using and moving only his little finger.

Great emergencies and crises show us how much greater our vital resources are than we had supposed.

-- William James
