Items purchased at auction are "as is" so, preview can be a really important part of auction going.

Please use the preview time before the start of an auction to determine your interest in an item.
What are the benefits of an auction?
The auction demonstrates to serious buyers that owners are ready, willing, able and committed to sell the items now at a market price.
