Welcome!

To place a bid or sell an item you must first register for an account. 

You can search for items on the Home Page or browse items by category.  The five categories for Listings on the IAMHA Auction are: Colts, Fillies, Geldings, Mares, and Stallions.

All Listing entries have been entered on the Auction site by the IAMHA Admin for each respective Seller.  The name of the individual(s) consigning the horse for sale will be reflected at the bottom of the narrative description of each Listing entry.

Auction - A "Traditional Auction" listing allows you to sell items to the highest bidder. You specify the start price, and people bid against each other in specified bid increments. Traditional Auctions may allow the Seller to set both a Reserve and/or Buy Now price. All Listings included on the IAMHA Auction have a specified Reserve price.  When listing a Traditional Auction, the quantity of goods is equal to one.

Example:

  • One pair of jeans has a quantity of 1.
  • A lot of 5 different men’s shirts have a quantity of 1 because they are all sold together as one item. 

Reserve - The Reserve price is the absolute minimum dollar amount the Seller will accept for an item. Buyers are notified after placing their bid if it is below the Reserve price.  If a Buyer's maximum bid is greater than the Reserve price, the Reserve is automatically met and that user is the high bidder. The ability to set a Reserve price is only available to Traditional Auctions.
