ScreenUsed Live On-Line Movie and Television Memorabilia Auction Slated for July 15-16, 2016
San Jose, California – June 25, 2016 – ScreenUsed, co-owned by Desi DosSantos and Jeff Castillo, have announced today their company will hold their Summer auction on Friday and Saturday, July 15th and 16th, 2016 at 10am Pacific Time.
Our Summer auction is now online and open for bidding. The auction will conclude on Friday and Saturday, July 15th and 16th, 2016 at 10am Pacific Time.
For the past few auctions, we have had two completion days instead of one. As we gain more consignors, the quantity of lots for each auction is getting higher. Our goal has been to keep the live online auction to one day – it’s just no fun attending an auction that goes on for many days. So here is how it works:
– As always, all items, for both days, have about 3 weeks of bidding online, up until the two closing days on Friday, July 15th and Saturday, July 16th.
– We have created a PDF catalog for the live auction only. However, several pictures for each item can be viewed on our ScreenUsed website or the iCollector website.
Day 1, Friday, July 15th
Completion of lots 1 through 391 will start at 10am Pacific Time, and each lot will automatically end 1 minute apart. The auction will not allow sniping at the last second, so everyone has a fair chance to bid what they feel comfortable with. If an item receives a bid within the last 3 minutes, the end time will automatically be extended another 3 minutes. Each item displays the exact time it is scheduled to end, with each lot initially ending 1 minute apart.
Day 2, Saturday, July 16th
Completion of 392 through 606 will start at 10am Pacific Time, and we will run the process manually. As each lot has its last call and once there are no more bidders, we will drop the hammer and close the lot, moving to the next lot. We will continue this way until all lots are closed.
As usual, we have quite a variety of productions for this auction, with over 600 items. Here are some highlights from the auction:
