For months we've been moving toward Dixon's biggest auction.
Ever since Federal marshal's seized Rita Crundwell's horses and agreed to auction them off to the highest bidders.
319 horses are set for sale starting Sunday morning.
Like any auction they'll go to the highest bidder.
But there are some things to be aware of if you go to bid, or even just to watch.
The auction is open to the public.
But you can't just go and bid on a horse without being prepared.
The auction company requires each bidder to register.
They'll be registering bidders each day.
But part of the registration includes a photo id and paying 250 dollars down.
The auction company wants to prevent people from winning a horse and then not paying for it once the auction is done.
You can't charge a winning bid either.
The company is only going to accept cash and checks.
And unless the winning bid is 10-thousand dollars or more.
You have to pay the full amount that day.
But if you don't win anything that 250 dollar deposit doesn't disappear.
"If they don't buy anything they get the money back, if they do buy something the money goes towards the purchase," says Professional Auction Services Mike Jennings.
Besides horses auctioneers will be selling trucks, trailers, and even lab equipment.
And about two-thousand people are expected to attend and bid on all of that starting at ten Sunday, and nine Monday morning.
Meantime Crundwell's personal possessions like furniture, exercise equipment, clothes and fur coats will be sold at another auction at a later date.
Many of those items are still being catalogued.
