Welcome to the First Zervas Online Auction! 

Thanks to a generous donation from our "cyber-sponsor," Salon Capri, we've streamlined the bidding process to make bidding for some of your favorite or date-specific items a little easier for you!  Online items that you can bid on now include:

  • Superbowl football signed by MVP Tom Brady
  • Summer camps
  • Birthday parties
  • Professional services
  • Vacations!

Some of these items are for a set price -- you can buy in without bidding at all.  They may go fast!  So grab your calendar and bid early! 

This online auction closes at 10:00 p.m. sharp on March 7!

Loads and loads of other amazing items will still be available at the live event on March 9, so make sure you've RSVP'd and purchased your tickets!  You will receive your catalog in your child's folder soon, which will also include a form for those of you who cannot attend the live event, but want to submit a bid by proxy.

Items that are online, but don't sell for at least the "Opening Bid" amount will be moved to the live event.  Bidding for those items will start at the "Opening Bid" listed here.

Now, we couldn't resist teasing you a bit... In the "vacation" section of this website, you can preview one of Zervas's most unique and certainly the most luxurious item:

  • one week at La Dogana, an Italian villa!  ($2,500 minimum bid)

You can't bid on this until the night of the auction, but you can pore over La Dogana photos (attached to the flyer in your child's folder) and some other information here while you scheme to find a benefactor or some friends to vacation (ahem, share the cost) with you! 

THANKS, HAVE A BLAST AND BID EARLY AND OFTEN!

Answers to your FAQs:

HOW DO I BID?

Bidding for Good is a breeze!  Once you find an item you like, follow the instructions to place your bid.  Bidding for Good will notify you if someone outbids you! 

HOW MUCH TIME DO I HAVE?

The online auction closes at 10:00 p.m.  sharp on March 7.  You will be notified if you won. 

CAN I SHARE THIS LINK WITH OTHERS?

Yes, please do!  The more competition we have, the more money ZERVAS makes!  So, share the link with the grandparents, aunts, uncles, and your friends!  (Please note that some items, including many Zervas community items, are restricted to the immediate Zervas community only.  Afterall, maybe it's not the best idea for Uncle Joe to be a guest at little Suzie's bakeoff?)

WHAT IF AN ITEM'S "OPENING BID" ISN'T REACHED? 

Items that are online, but don't sell for at least the "Opening Bid" amount will be moved to the live event.  Bidding for those items will start at the "Opening Bid" listed here.

I'M STILL CONFUSED - WHAT SHOULD I DO?
