AAAA Fall Auction
This is an all day event featuring a live auction of hundreds of bags of freshwater fish, plants, invertebrates, and more. These animals are raised by local hobbyists and are often not easy to find in stores. If you would like to hang out with a bunch of fish nerds and see some really cool stuff.

You may also register your bag(s) at the event, however there will almost certainly be a long line. So, pre-register your items.
NO ZIPLOC BAGS! They will be charged a re-bagging fee of $2
The club gets the first $1 on each bag. Then there is a split.
For Supporting Members, you get 70% of the sales price and the AAAA gets 30%
For the general public, you get 50% of the sales price and the AAAA gets 50%
All lots will sell for a $1 minimum.
Dry goods (tanks, equipment, box of decor, etc) are allowed. Open containers of chemicals and food will not be allowed and will be placed in the trash and charged the minimum sale. There will be a 5 Lot limit on dry goods. There are no bag limits on fish, live food cultures, and plants. Keep in mind that if you bring a lot of bags of the same thing, you will drive the price down. One or two bags will always go for a higher per bag price than 10 bags will.
Additions:
Priority stickers for $2. Lots with priority stickers will be brought from viewing tables by staff ONLY to the final processing area, and placed at the discretion of the bag stager to start the process. Exceptions will be made for donation items or to better improve the flow of the auction and bids on the items. Do not bring bags to the front table.
Raffle tickets for $1 or a sheet for $20.
Food tickets for $1. One ticket for drinks, and two tickets for a slice of pizza!
All purchases must be settled at the event.
These auctions take a lot of volunteers to make things go smoothly.
