It sounds like the auctions I attend must be much smaller than the ones you do. Most of the auctions here are for household/estate and moving sales. Farms in this area are being developed into housing tracts, and many have been run on a downslope for decades prior to the sale. Small items usually come first just to get the ball rolling. Sometimes the auctioneer will mix in a little bit of stuff "for the ladies" to keep them interested. Big items go off at a set hour usually noon. The auctioneer knows what's best for his and the owners interests. Keep the majority if big bidders around for the big ticket items. After the big items are sold the auctioneer is usually giving stuff away for less than scrap value. I'll tell you something else--as a buyer it pays to have a good relationship with the auctioneer. Make yourself known, friendly, and offer information to the auctioneer from time to time (on items you aren't interested in), and you may find that the auctioneer will adjust the selling schedule just a little bit for you which works out well in the end.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
