So if you can only be at the auction a short while and see something in the fish corral you want, there is a app for that.

Go to the cashier, where you'd go to check out, and ask for a BUMP UP sticker for $2. You can buy as many BUMP UP stickers as you want. Then place the BUMP UP sticker on the bag you want, hand it to a corral workers, and it will be auctioned right away, like the next item auctioned.

There also is a fixed price/tag sale that will run from 10:30 to 2:00 pm. You register for a number and a ticket will be written up just like the auction and added to the tab you pay at the end.

All dry goods will be listed at a fixed price - including a number of tanks that will generally be even cheaper than $1/gallon.

I was thinking of putting in some fish, but can't stay all day. Does anyone know if there is an option to receive the money for the items at the next pvas meeting or do you need to stay until the end for payment? Either way I'll definitely go. A very fun event.

For the big PVAS auctions(all day events or convention) - checks are sent to sellers within 2 weeks of the auction.

There is no need to stay to get your money from your auction sales. It actually takes about a week or two to get your check to you in the mail. All checks are mailed out after the treasurer has finished his accounting of the event. He has to make sure the runners' chits are applied to the right seller and such and resolve issues. It has been done for years so there is a process that is pretty well known.

If you buy stuff, fish, plants or equipment, you must pay before you leave the auction. PVAS accepts CC and cash and maybe this year also PayPal, not real sure about PayPal however, but ask the registrar or cashier if interested.
