Once you have been evidenced to be the winning bidder you have affected a legally binding contract which cannot be altered or voided. Be certain you want the item at the bid amount before bidding. No transfer recognized from bidder to bidder.

2. NO GUARANTEE: Everything is sold "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" without guarantees of any kind, including counts. Use the inspection period to inspect all items in which you have an interest. We encourage you NOT to bid unless you have inspected those items and/or lots and counts. Internet bidders, make sure you inspect items before bidding online. Everything is sold AS-IS, NO EXCEPTIONS!

3. WARRANTY: Other than delivery of title and/or bill of sale, neither auctioneers nor owners make any representation of warranty as to the quality of title to the property being sold.

All property is sold "AS-IS" and without recourse.

4. PAYMENT: All items must be paid for before you leave the auction premises TODAY, regardless of when you will be picking them up. No items may be removed before full payment. Items that will be paid by a wire transfer can be completed on the next business day following the auction.

5. PAYMENT TERMS: Payment must be made by cash, pre-approved check, MasterCard, Discover, Visa. Anything other than cash will be subject to an extra fee.

6. INCREMENTS & LOTS: Auctioneers reserve the right to set bidding increments and lot and re-lot items prior to the fall of the gavel regardless of type of auction being conducted. Fractional increment advances may not be recognized as bids. Any listed or announced order of sale may be changed, WITHOUT NOTICE, by the auctioneer. Items are being sold per item, per piece, times the money, unless stated otherwise. For example: 25 chairs- Bid price of $30.00 each X 25 = $750.00 total. If quantity is 1 (one) and description states "Lot of ...." then this is being sold as a lot for one money, not times the count. Auction staff may activate bids on behalf of absentee bidders.

7. DELETIONS & ADDITIONS: The auctioneer has the right, at his/her sole discretion, to not accept a bid that would be harmful to the item/ lot being offered.

All bids are subject to confirmation.
