_Make sure to email all bids by 6 pm_! We honor the email bids as
first come first serve, so if we don’t respond right away—do not

We are still working on getting caught up with emails and orders.
Again, gratitude for your patience!

	Sacred Succulents Mini Plant Auction Fundraiser(Plants are available
to US customers only)
	This is a unique chance to obtain new introductions, rarities,
specimens and mother plants. This is a one time offer for most of
these plants–they will not be available again! 
    Know that auction purchases will directly fund nursery repairs;
constructing new nursery benches and rebuilding several shade
structures, ongoing tech upgrades as well as our continual research
and conservation work. 

	Bidding process is the same as last auction & simplified from early
auctions. 
With this auction what you bid is exactly what you will pay if you
have the winning high bid when the auction ends. This differs from our
first four auctions where the high bid was hidden and determined to be
just $1 over the previous bidders high bid.
For example for the current auction: If the current bid on a plant is
$35 and you bid $50 the high bid price is then moved to $50 (NOT $36
like the earlier auctions) and the next bidder has to bid over that
($51 or more) -- if you have the highest bid when the auction closes
then you win that plant and your high bid is exactly what you pay
(plus shipping). 

	To place a bid- ( please read fully before bidding! )
Email us ( benkamm at monitor.net ) with “SS auction” in the subject
header. 
In the body of the email list -
   1) The name of each plant you are bidding on with the amount you
are bidding next to the name (must be equal to or greater than the
“minimum starting bid” or current “high bid”). 
   2) Your full name and complete shipping address. 

	Placing a bid is binding, so please do not bid unless you are
committed to buying! Again please do not bid if you are not 100%
committed and do not bid beyond your means. 

	We honor the email bids as first come first serve, so if we don’t
respond right away—do not worry, we will honor your bid in the order
it was received! Towards the end of the auction can get hectic and we
may not be able to notify you in a timely manner if you’ve been
outbid during this last phase–we recommend checking the website
periodically to see the current high bids.
The auction closes 6 pm PST Wednesday, February 19. You will be
contacted by email that evening for the auction plants you have won.
Our regular shipping costs apply. Placing a bid is binding, so please
do not bid unless you are committed to buying! Payment (cash, check,
money order or Western Union) will need to be sent promptly on
Thursday February 20. Your plants will be shipped as soon as payment
is received. 

	Shipping and Handling for Auction Plants
First class priority mail = $8.50 for the first plant $2 each
additional plant. Express mail = Inquire for current costs
*Plants marked with a single asterisk are large, heavy and have
special shipping charges = $15.00 for the first plant $2 each
additional plant.
**Plants marked with double asterisk are extra large and/or heavy. We
charge you the actual USPS postage cost plus an $6 handling fee on the
total order. Please note: Shipping costs for these will be significant
for folks in eastern states (for example a 36” Trichocereus sent to
the East Coast would be around $40+ shipping but less than half that
for the West Coast). You may inquire the approximate shipping cost by
emailing us your zipcode.
California residents add 7.25% sales tax. Sonoma county residents 8%.
