How to use Reemans Live


 

Unable to attend our auctions? You can bid in real-time on any of our live sales wherever you are across the globe.

Not buying? You can also watch and listen to the sale live from anywhere, as if you were in the room.

 

Step 1: Register

  • Sign in/register an account on our website - sign in/register. If you are registering with us for the first time, after completing the online registration form you will be sent an email with a link to verify your email address.

If you have previously registered an account on our website but have not yet registered a bank card (necessary to be approved for live bidding), you can do so by:

  • Clicking on your username/name on the far right of the main menu bar (if you are not signed in this will show as ‘My Account’)

  • Clicking on the option for ‘Account Settings’

  • Making sure your address is up to date - if not click 'Change my details' to correct
