The Cooley Collection

The Edward H. Cooley Collection - How to Bid/Make an Offer


Bidding - The whips will be sold individually, with three to four whips from different sections of the collection available for bidding during each individual item's bidding period.  This will be a Two-Bid Silent Auction.  Persons interested in a whip that is one of the active whips will have two weeks to email their initial bid (minimum reserve prices are listed with each whip in the online catalog) to CooleyCollection@midwestwhips.com with the item number of the whip they are bidding on (H-5, AE-3, etc.) in the subject line of the email.  When the initial two weeks are up, only the persons who entered an initial bid will be sent an email with the updated status of the bidding on that particular whip, and given a one week long opportunity to place a second and final silent bid.  At the end of this third and final week, all bidders will be notified that the auction has ended, and the winner of the whip will be contacted to finalize payment and shipping details.

The right to accept or reject any bid is at the sole discretion of the Broker (MidWestWhips) and/or of the Owner of the collection, for whatever reason.


Timeline - Each item will be open to bids for their individually listed time period, which can be extended at the discretion of the Broker (MidWestWhips) and/or Owner of the collection if there have been no bids, or the reserve price has not been met.
