How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
- The first bid starts a 7-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
- Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
- Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
- Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
- A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
- Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Pickup is at the South Loop dock.
- A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

What's it worth?
Taking a squint at it...
An estimate from the photos and description, not an appraisal and not a reserve. Bid what it is worth to you; the sea sets no prices and neither do we.
