IN an auction unlike any other seen on the Darling Downs, almost an entire town will be on the market and potentially sold for just $1.
Three quarters of the tiny town of Yelarbon, 190km south-west of Toowoomba, will be auctioned off as part of a deceased estate.
With a population of just 448, the pending auction has the town's residents buzzing.
True Country Realty auctioneer Jodi Bynon said the unprecedented event would put Yelarbon on the map.
"With no reserve if someone comes along and bids for $1, and there are no further bids, it will be sold for $1. It's extremely exciting."
The auction includes eight shops - the bulk of Yelarbon's retail centre - and a home.
Mr Bynon said the auction was unlike any he'd seen in his years as an auctioneer in south-east Queensland.
Clearly the auction's uniqueness has captured the imagination of potential buyers, with Mr Bynon reporting an unusual amount of interest.
"We're expecting a big crowd, but with auctions like these you never know who will turn up," he said.
"There have certainly been a lot of parties expressing interest."

The properties were owned by Manny Coe, who was from the Gold Coast and died with no living relatives.
Yelarbon is on the Dumaresq River between Goondiwindi and Inglewood.
The town is on a railway line and during its heyday was a loading station for grain.
The proposed Melbourne to Brisbane Inland Rail project is expected to pass through it.
Kate Bremner has lived in Yelarbon for 40 years and said it was a good place to call home.
"I can't understand why people are complaining about the price of houses when you can buy a nice house in a country town like Yelarbon," she said.
The auction will take place next Saturday on-site from 10.30am.
