  • GHAC Auction *Sept. 13th, 2008 - updated

    When GHAC was formed, one of the events that members were looking forward to was GHAC hosting its own auction.  GHAC is a young club, not quite a year old but we have grown very quickly in size and resources.  

    GHAC has set a date and reserved a location to host an auction this year.  It will require a lot of time and hard work, but we are very excited about this event and we have a list of members that have volunteered to assist with this event.  

    You will see advertisement on here, GHAC website, fish stores and other places but the best advertisement is by word of mouth.  Please tell a friend and we hope to see you there, whether it by as a seller, a buyer or spectator.  

    Date:          September 13th, 2008

    Location:     The Hall on Hammerly
                     10644 Hammerly Blvd.
                     Houston, TX. 77043

                     http://www.saintjosephorthodox.org/hallrental.html

    Check-in:     10am

    Start time:    11am

    End time:      ???


    Bidder Fee: $5.00 (Free to members – Hint, same price for individual membership to GHAC)

    Bagging Fee: $2.00
    Move up Fee: $2.00
    Reserve:     If the seller places a reserve on any item and it does not sell, the seller will pay GHAC 20% of the reserve.

    All livestock should be properly bagged or in appropriate containers.  No Ziplock bags.
    GHAC is not responsible for any losses or damage to items up for auction, prior or after.

    GHAC will be providing a concession area where we will sell drinks and snacks.  Please, no outside food or drinks or smoking inside the hall.

    You will be able to download the Seller forms from www.myghac.org or you can pick some up the day of the auction.  We recommend printing off the form and fill it out before hand.  All items are required to be labeled in ledge able writing or typed.  Please include details about the item to be auctioned.  Seller is required to include a seller code and item # on the Seller form and on the individual items.  Payments will be mailed out within 2-3 weeks after the auction.

    Forms of payment accepted: Cash
    Check ($27 NSF Fee on returned Checks)

    Re: GHAC Auction 2008

    Any ideas as to whether there will be food/drinks?
    Noticed that the Hall is located within a church, will adult beverages be allowed?
    Seller/Bidder fees?


    Sounds cool and a lot closer then some of the other auctions I have been to!

      There will be food and drinks available... none of them alcoholic.

      Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
      Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

        Yeah, I got more info to post.  I wanted the main info out there first.  

        GHAC will have a concession area with drinks and snacks.  Sorry, there will be no alcohol sold or allowed at this event.  

        Bidder cards will be free for members and $5 for non-members (By the way, that just so happens to be our membership fee for an individual.... :)  ).  Sellers will keep 90% of their sales, GHAC keeps 10%.  

        Like I said, more info/details to come.  I'm at work and they expect me to do stuff while I'm here...geez.
