The ability for an auction item to be viewed but not bid on online. This will be used for live auction items that an organizations wishes to preview and then manually add the bid of the winner.

Offline Auctions - View Only

I would like to ability to add offline auctions in givebutter. Bidding would occur offline but the items would be on display online for people to view prior to the event. I would like to tie the winner to the item and allow them to make payment online. If the winner was tied to multiple items they would receive 1 total to pay and all items would be marked as paid. I know that this is not a feature in the system now. Could you please add it as a request. this would be extremely useful for those of us who are holding live auctions or silent auctions where the bidding is not occurring online.

According to the post, this was planned over 2 years ago. Is it still a plan or has it been abandoned? As it is critical to a successful live auction. Also a way to capture the winner's payment right away and not just hope they follow through with the email reminder

We are currently debating returning to paper bidding for a few of our auctions so we don't miss out on the in-person excitement of a live auction. That said, we are hesitant because we have so many bidders from out of the local area. It would be great to be able to expand our reach by having the live auction items visible online, which might encourage those who are out of the area to join the live auction.

User would like to have option for people to see auction items without them having the option to bid. The organizers will put the bid manually and they'll be the ones to decide who wins the item and who can purchase it.

That would be very helpful. My rescue deals with people who do not like to pay online and/or want their information shown.

I would also need this functionality often we have live auction items that are vacation homes for a large amount of people and it helps for groups to plan ahead.

We really need the Live auction feature! I tried doing live auction by posting items and creating a category of "live auction" but it requires that you put a starting bid and value. This is NOT typical for a live auction. Also, because you need to put a start time, if you do not remember to go in and turn it off, people bid on those items even if they are supposed to be live auction items only.
