How to follow live auctions online?

Ok, it all starts happening tomorrow. I've nosed around stacks site and Heritage site and don't see a "click here to follow live auction button". I know people do it so what do I need to do. Thanks, jerry

    I hear Stacks gets really buggy, but Heritage should be easy. When the auctions go live, there will be a button to click to follow. The lots go really fast. If you have a bid or two (or more!) in, it can be exciting to watch. Not the same as being there, but close behind.

    Do you have to register to bid in the auction in order to watch it online?

    not at all

    edit to add: in case people don't know, you don't see a video feed. Instead, you get a data feed of bid, hammer, lot number, etc. If you have a dog in the hunt, it is pretty exciting.

    I know you knew that, but I don't consider you "people," if you know what I mean image

    Does it give a short description of each lot or do you need to print out a list of lots beforehand?

    my memory is not crystal on this, but I believe you get lot number and a short description to include at least denomination, year, mint, grade

    At Heritage, just login and go to any item that is about to go live and you will see a botton to take you to the live auction.
