Welcome to SD58's Silent Auction

  • Equipment and assets determined to be obsolete or surplus to the requirements of the School District may be disposed of under the authorization of the Secretary-Treasurer (Board Policy No. 803.1). As School District equipment was purchased with public funds, it is therefore necessary that the public has equal opportunity with regard to its sale. To this end, SD 58 will post for these items for sale by Silent Auction on a regular basis.

Where do I go to pickup the item I bid on?

  • Most items listed will be available for payment and pick-up at the Merritt School Board Office, 1550 Chapman St., Merritt, BC. Items must be paid for and picked up at the same time and a receipt will be issued (*some exceptions apply).

 

How is the value price reached?

  • The value price for items is determined by reviewing historical sale values, trade magazines and online reference guides. Items you have successfully bid on will be available as cash & carry (PST applicable.) Even with our best effort, it is not always possible to test everything. There is no warranty or guarantee on auction items.
