Text Bidding
We’re excited to offer text bidding for the Silent Auction
this year. Beginning Sunday, Nov. 17 at 12 p.m. ET, text NAAA to 71760 or for international, text NAAA to +1
(720) 408-2243 from your mobile device and follow the
directions to bid. Text bidding allows you to set an auto bid (let the system
bid for you up to a certain amount) while you walk the NAAA Trade Show Floor
or attend sessions and if you can't make it to the Ag Aviation Expo this year, you can bid while at home. If you win an item from home, please have a friend pick up your item or
you can have it shipped from T3 Expo (details will be available in November).
The system will also text you when you've been outbid. For questions onsite,
please visit the Silent Auction booth #1307. For questions in advance of the
show, email naaaexpo@agaviation.org. Bid
early and often!
