the Wednesday viewing hours. Stock is not added to the bid during the month.
Bid sheets must be turned in by the last Wednesday of the month at 2pm. Winning
bidders will be notified by telephone the following day. Cash and checks are
accepted payment for any awards. California sales tax will be added unless a
valid resale certificate is filed. The office furniture is not sold on the bid
process, it is sold on a "cash & carry" basis.
