About us
AviRings Auction is the pigeon auction from Slovenia and is part of AviRings. We are mediating by selling pigeons from AviRings Derby PRO, and we are organizing thematic auctions of top pigeons.

Bidding
When logged into your bidding account, you can place a bid by clicking on "Place a bid". You can submit your own bid and/or buying order and then click on "Place your bid".
Bidding starts at 80 EUR. The minimal increase of the bid under the price of 100 EUR is 10 EUR; between 100 and 500 is 20 EUR, and up from 500 is 50 EUR.
Maximal bid
Maximal bid means that AviRings will bid incrementally for you up to your maximum bid. Your maximum bid is kept a secret from other users. Your bid is a contract between you and the listing creator. If you have the highest bid you will enter into a legally binding purchase contract.
Outbid
If you are outbid, you may be notified by email. Note: We can’t guarantee that messages will arrive because of reception or services. Please always check your profile to be sure you aren’t outbid.
Extended bid time
If someone places a bid in the last 5 minutes of the sale, the running time will then be extended by 5 minutes. Even if there is a bid again within that time, the time will go along with this. This gives you enough time to still place a counteroffer.
Problems with bidding
If you are still experiencing problems bidding by yourself, or if you prefer to bid by phone, please contact us.
Transport
Collection from AviRings is possible after payment during office hours (9 am- 3 pm) Monday through Friday. Please inform us in advance via derby@avirings.com if you wish to have your purchased pigeon(s) collected by someone other than yourself (e.g., acquaintance, friend, transporter).
In mid-November, we will organize pigeon transport to Austria, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Croatia. The transport cost will depend on the number of pigeons, approximately €10–15 per pigeon. Pigeons can also be collected at the Kassel Fair in Germany (November 29–30, stand 310), or one day prior in the Netherlands and Belgium.
Shipment is possible after the payment of the purchase. Transport costs are not included in the purchase price and must be paid separately.
Payments
After the auction closes (within 24 hours), the winning bidder will receive an email with a purchase confirmation and payment instructions. Please note that the total bid amount will be increased by the applicable VAT (11%).
You must pay for your purchase within 8 days. The pigeon can only be picked up when it is fully paid. Even with the possibility of transport to the desired address, the pigeon must first be paid.
The purchase amount and additional transport costs are to be paid:
