Here at Brasher’s, our goal is to make your buying experience as easy and pleasant as possible. That’s why we’re proud to announce personalized run lists.

The idea is this: at an an auction with 2,000 vehicles, there may be 20 or so that are a perfect match for you and your dealership. Rather than make you search through the 2,000, we’ll take you right to the 20.

Our personalized run lists are created specifically for you based on your purchase history at the auction.

To get your run list for any given sale, contact the sales office at your local Brasher’s Auction. We’ll email it to you right away with links to the inventory on AuctionPipeline. Preview the inventory online, or print your list to bring with you on sale day.

Buying at Brasher’s just got a whole lot easier! Have you already been using personalized run lists? Let us know what you think!

We’ve already covered how to create an account on AuctionPipeline, so we’ll continue where we left off.

If you know the sale you’d like to attend, you’re best off to use the calendar view.  This Tech Tip deals only with Quick Search.

Assuming you’re logged in to AuctionPipeline, you should see a search box towards the top-right of the screen, similar to the one shown here.

In that box, you can enter any part of a year, make, or model. By default, Quick Search results that match your query will be for all auctions and units with an assigned sale date only. After performing the Quick Search, you can fine-tune the results by adjusting advanced search settings (ie selecting specific auctions or searching beyond just units assigned to a given sale).

For example, searching for “boat” will get you any occurrence of the word “boat” in the year/make/model field for units currently assigned to sale (see image at right).

You could search for “2006 explorer xlt” and get the expected result.

Searching for “05-08 exp” will return any 2005-2008 Explorer, Expedition, or Express Cargo Van.

You can also search by VIN part.  Searching for “vin:123456” will return any occurrence of “123456″ in an AuctionPipeline VIN.
