Yes please. Many of our highest bidders are requesting to pay by check.

I agree with what's below and just want to list the features we'd want.
1) manual ability to mark an item sold or unsold
2) the ability to mark an item paid by cash or check
3) the ability to do all of the above AFTER an auction has ended - manual updates should be allowed on the back end after the auction is over AND we should be able to shut off any further notification emails.
4) the ability to create "buy now" pricing and sales after an auction for a highest bidder - we did some bartering that was better than leaving the item unsold AND we didn't need it to be a public extension. It was private for the highest bidder because the artists were willing to reduce the reserve price

A bit disappointing that it's been 2 years since this request was created and the feature still hasn't been implemented. It doesn't really make sense.

Having an option under the Winning Bids tab for each bid winner to allow us to mark if they paid by Cash/Check would be very helpful. This is our first year with Givebutter and using the auction feature and this is definitely a feature that is missed with our old platform.

We could really use this feature! I would appreciate a way to do this for our next event!

This is an absolute need for our auction. Please add this functionality.

I find it absolutely crazy that Givebutter doesn't allow for an offline payment such as a check! Donors often like––and prefer––that method or to pay with cash due to the cost of processing a credit card. This is definitely a dealbreaker for us moving forward and we will look at other options unless corrected. It's just crazy that this feature doesn't exist. We ran into a few other snafus along the way but this is a big one!

Although most of our bidders pay online, some still prefer cash. The offline payment option would allow us to accurately track the success of our auction.

We just had an auction last night and this was requested by multiple donors! We had to do a messy workaround where staff bid on the item for the donors, then we mark it uncollectible, then add the transaction from the donor manually to have it count towards our campaign total. Super messy!

We definitely need the ability to mark items paid offline (e.g., CASH) as PAID. Some people really do not want to pay by card when they have cash in hand and it makes the record-keeping very confusing and makes us waste time trying to explain to people looking at the auction site that yes, those items really have already been sold despite what it says on the screen.
