Last week after reading several posts on a popular Auctioneer Facebook group, I realized that every time the issue of online bidding entered a conversation, there was a virtual Hatfield and McCoy type standoff regarding the validity of online bidding vs live auction.
In an effort to give auctioneers and auction professionals who utilize such technology in their business a safe place to discuss best practices without having to debate the issue of which is better, I created an Auction Technology Facebook group.
If you are an auctioneer or auction professional who would like to join the conversation, check it out at:

Please remember though, to leave your opinion of live vs online at the door. I guess we will see how long that lasts.
