Welcome to ThinkTV's 30th Anniversary GreatTVAuction! This special celebration fundraiser benefiting the ThinkTVNetwork airs April 9-14, 2007 from 6-11 P.M. weekdays and 4-midnight on Saturday. You can bid on-line now! On-line bids are automatically updated, and will be accepted through the close of the Auction on April 14th. You may choose to watch the Auction on both ThinkTV16 and ThinkTV14 while bidding. Opening bids on all auction items begin at approximately 35% of donor value.

On this website are listings of major gifts available for bid in three categories:

    Click to View Super Board Items

    Click to View Big Board Items

    Click to View Tonight Board Items

To bid on-line or check the current high bid – pick the board, pick the item, click and bid! You can also bid directly from the GreatTVAuction pages featured on DaytonDailyNews.com.


Big Changes…More to Offer You…

Whether you’re a returning bidder or this is your first time participating on-line with the GreatTVAuction, you’ll be bound to notice how easy it is to find what you’re looking for. This year all items featured on the Super Board ($2,500+) will have three pictures of each item and the Big Board ($1,000-$1,999) will have one picture of each item. All major gifts listed including the Tonight Board ($500-$999) will have complete descriptions.

If you’re viewing the Auction on DaytonDailyNews.com, our on-line partner, you’re going to be able to sort all of the Auction’s Major Gifts by board (Super, Big or Tonight), by category or by retail value.

On both sites you will find a list of General Merchandise over $500 donors. These items will be available for bid only during the televised Auction, April 9-14, 2007. You can also view Pick-Up & Pay Hours, Underwriters, Cash, Inkind and Food Contributors, Computerized Board Sponsors, and Overbid Incentives. We’re even featuring information on how your company can reap the promotional benefits of becoming a part of the GreatTVAuction.


If You Choose to Bid On-line

Once the Auction airs on television (ThinkTV14 and ThinkTV16), you may want to tune in to watch your bids simultaneously. Here is how it works:

  1. When you click the "Bid Now" button next to an auction item, the link will take you to the secure, live bidding pages on DaytonDailyNews.com. Once you place a bid on-line and have read the User Agreement, the volunteers post your bid on the written boards in the studios.

  2. You can watch the television for updates of your bids and continue if you so choose. Keep in mind, there are 35 phones in the studios taking phone bids at the same time you are bidding on-line, so you want to bid high and bid fast!

  3. The high bidder will receive a confirmation call within two hours after the item is sold.
