Dear Lynn:

On behalf of DoveBid, Inc. ("DoveBid"), I am pleased to offer you a full-time
position as Vice President of Human Resources reporting to DoveBid's President
and Chief Operating Officer, effective on March 7, 2000.  In this position, you
will be responsible for all human resources related functions on behalf of
DoveBid.

Your annual salary will be $180,000 and will be paid in accordance with
DoveBid's normal payroll procedures.  Also, you will be eligible for a year-end
bonus up to 33% of your base salary, determined by DoveBid in its discretion in
January, and payable in or about February.  All payments to you will be subject
to legally required withholding(s).  It is DoveBid's policy to review
compensation levels periodically.

Subject to approval by the Board of Directors of the Company, your compensation
package also will include an incentive stock option under the terms of DoveBid's
1999 Stock Option Plan for 550,000 shares of common stock at the fair market
value of the Company's Common Stock, as determined by the Board of Directors on
the date the Board approves such grant.  Your stock options will be subject to
the terms of DoveBid's 1999 Stock Option Plan (the Plan includes vesting
restrictions, restrictions on exercise and restrictions on transfer of shares)
and will be conditioned on your execution of a Stock Option Agreement related to
your options.

In addition to your base salary, you will be eligible to participate in the
employee benefits generally made available to our full-time employees, as may be
modified in DoveBid's discretion.  At the present time, those benefits include a
"cafeteria" style benefits plan, health and dental insurance, life insurance,
vacation and sick pay, and a 401k plan which you will become eligible for in
accordance with the applicable benefit plans and DoveBid's written policies.

Your employment with DoveBid will be "at will"; in other words, either you or
DoveBid will have the right to terminate your employment with DoveBid at any
time with or without cause.

As a condition of your employment, you will be expected to comply with all
DoveBid's policies and procedures, as may be modified from time to time in
DoveBid's discretion

(including our policies protecting other employees against discrimination and
sexual harassment). Please refer to DoveBid's Employee Handbook for details
regarding those policies and procedures. Also, you will need to execute
DoveBid's Employee Confidentiality And Proprietary Information Agreement.

Please note that because of employer regulations adopted in the Immigration
Reform and Control Act of 1986, within three (3) business days of starting your
new position you will need to present documentation demonstrating that you have
authorization to work in the United States.  If you have questions about this
requirement, which applies to U.S. citizens and non-U.S. citizens alike, you may
contact our personnel office.

This offer will remain open until March 8, 2000.  If you decide to accept our
offer, and I hope you will, please sign the enclosed copy of this letter in the
space indicated and return it to me.  Your signature will acknowledge that you
have read and understood and agreed to the terms and conditions of this offer
letter and the attached documents, if any.  Should you have anything else that
you wish to discuss, please do not hesitate to call me.

We look forward to having you join our team!

Sincerely,



/s/ Jeff Crowe
