Fireworks?
Another example of how we are constantly taking on new challenges, The PA Department of General Services has asked us to help them move confiscated fireworks. I thought Clint Francis was joking when he asked me to build an outreach e-mail for his seized fireworks auction. I thought that I had missed a machine brand name somewhere, but as I soon found out . . .they were in fact seized fireworks. Clint built this as a Private Featured Auction or PFA. We use these for auctions that are by invitation only and are not part of our public auction calendar. We are still able to utilize the same technology to run these auctions, but we are able to keep their location on the web private and only distribute the link to those individuals that have the credentials to participate in the auction. We use these private auctions for ExxonMobil and for the numerous scrap metal service contract bids that we run each year. The bid is still open and we are in the beginning stages of inviting people to bid. The results should be interesting.
