Short term recreation memberships as well as some beauty spa packages may not be bid catchers especially if they result in an additional expense to the successful bidder. When items are unattractive to bidders, a decrease in the excitement level of your auction may result.
How can you handle this gracefully? Politely thank the donor but advise that you can only accept items which will not result in an additional expense to the successful bidder.
The auctioneer must keep the event energy level at a maximum to ensure terrific bids and over-the-top
success for the charity organization.
