Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I place a bid?
A: Click on the Auction link above. There you will find a Preview listing of the items we have placed for auction. Click the link at the bottom of that page to proceed. This will take you directly to our Online Auction where you will be able to place your bid. Or if you have previously reviewed our auction list, you may click on the link at the bottom of this page.
Q: Will I be required to sign-in before placing a bid?
A: Yes. This process is quick and easy. Upon sign up, an email will be sent to your in-box with your auction password. You will need to enter your password in order to place your bid.
Q. Should I place a bid on an item if I am not 100% sure that I want it?
A. Please note that by placing a bid you are making a contract between you and the John Wesley Powell Memorial Museum. Once you place a bid, you may not retract it. In some states, it is illegal to win an auction and not purchase the item. In other words, if you don't want to pay for it, please don't bid!

A: The John Wesley Powell Memorial Museum accepts payment for Online Auction items by check, money order or by credit card (MC / VS / AMEX)

A: You will be sent a confirmation email with further instructions.
Q: How will I receive the item(s) if I am the successful bidder?
A: If you are local, we invite you to stop by the Museum. However if that is not possible, items on gift certificates can be mailed to you. Other items must be picked up by the bidder at the museum. If shipping is requested all applicable shipping cost will be added to the price of your winning bid.
