        Do you have to stay till the end if you want to bid on a couple of items and leave?

          You can checkout anytime you like to. If you like you can leave & come back, but if you leave & check then come back you will need to repurchase a new bidders #.
          If you decide to leave & plan on being back dont checkout.
          They put the stuff you bid on in a paper bag with ur bidder # on it to the side. So you can leave it their for awhile.
          PLEASE do not leave after bidding on something without paying & not come back.

                    There is always a great variety of fish and supplies at each auction.  If you see something you want to bid on and it's on a table you don't wish to wait for, for the tiny amount of $2.00 you can have it moved up in the line.

                    BTW, there's no spending limit at the auction, spend all you can and then some.

                          Well after reading everyones postings I figured Soni & I had to set up her tank for the auction. We wanted to wait till we moved but all those fish sound so desirable. So now that we are broke setting up the tank we can just take out a loan for the fish.

                            It's always a good plan to have a tank set up prior to the auction.  However, be prepared, as from my personal experience I find the tank set up as a quarantine for new prizes soon gets established and they become premanent residents of said quarantine tank.  The next auction rolls around and you need to set up yet another quarantine tank, and so it continues in circles.  This can also be referred to as MTS, (multi tank syndrome).  Of course soon you'll need bigger tanks for all the fish in the alleged quarantine tanks, such is the life of a fish addict

                              Not to worry to much as I am sure there will be a fish tank or two up for bidding on as well.
