FAC Benefit Auction

Bidding is now open!

FAC is partnering with MaxSold, an online auction company that specializes in downsizing, estate sales, and house clean-outs. Using MaxSold allows us to reach bidders outside our community such as collectors, antique dealers, resellers, and individuals who frequent other MaxSold auctions.

FAC online Auction is now live!

The auction closes on Thursday, May 16 at 8:00pm.
note: for items with active bidding at 8pm, time will be extended in two-minute increments.

Some important things to know about how MaxSold auctions work:

Bidding

  • All bidding starts at $1.
  • Most of the bidding competition takes place in the last day or two - So don’t be dismayed if what you donated has a low bid today!

Registration and Payment

  • You must register prior to bidding.
  • You will be required to enter a credit card number when registering.
  • Your card will automatically be charged only if you are the winning bidder.
  • MaxSold charges a 15% buyer's premium, so be prepared to pay a little bit more than you bid, e.g., $1.50 on a $10 bid or $15 on a $100 bid.
  • MaxSold is currently offering their services free of charge to non-profits, so all the money we make will go directly to FAC.

Item Pick Up

Sunday November 20, Noon - 3:00pm, Stoneham, MA

  • If you are a winning bidder, you will sign up for a time slot between noon and 3, when you (or someone you designate) must show your emailed receipt and pick up your items.
  • Pick up will be at the FAC office (10 Franklin St., Stoneham, MA)
  • Neither MaxSold nor FAC will be involved in shipping.
