COMPANY STORE

The Company Store is where you can purchase meet cars, pick up pre-ordered shirts and carry bags.The Company Store also hosts and operates the White Elephant Sale and the Silent Auction.

White Elephant Sale

The convention provides a solution for attendees who may want to get rid of a few items but don’t have enough to require renting a table.  We call this the White Elephant Sale and we split it into two categories; Sale and Silent Auction

SALE

In Sale you bring us your item, tell us what you want for it, and we put it on the table for sale at that price.When the item sells we take the money and hold it for the seller to pick up.  Here are the rules for Sale: 

1. Limit of 5 items from each seller
2. $1 service charge for each item paid up front to the convention
3. Items must be O or S Scale model railroad related
4. Fixed price, NO HAGGLING
5. Sellers agree to accept personal checks
6. All sales are final

SILENT AUCTION

For the Silent Auction, you tell us what your minimum acceptable bid would be and we put your item on the table along with a silent auction form.  During the meet attendees can write in bids on the form.  When the auction closes we announce the winning bidders.  The bidders and sellers then meet and complete the transaction.  We will have 3 auctions, one ending at 4pm on Thursday, one ending at 4pm on Friday, and the third ending at 2pm on Saturday.  Here are the rules for Silent Auction:

1. Limit of 5 items from each seller
2. $1 service charge for each item paid up front to the convention
3. Items must be O or S Scale model railroad related
4. Seller to establish minimum price.  Item does not have to be sold if minimum price is not met (at discretion of seller)
5. High bidder and seller to meet at auction table within 30 minutes of finish of auction.  If high bidder does not meet seller within 30 minutes, item may be sold to next highest bidder
6. All transactions to be made between seller and buyer

The White Elephant Sale is co-located with the Company Store.  Come by the Company Store and pick up a meet car or two while looking over the elephants.

Hope to see you there,
