Claims related to property condition, minor count discrepancies, or buyer's failure to inspect the merchandise prior to bidding/removal will not be honored. POSTED TIMES: In terms of Internet auctions, posted closing times and displays of current time on AWS's website are approximate. In addition, AWS reserves the right to close early or extend Internet auctions at its discretion. Lots may be scheduled to close individually, in groups, or entirely. In the event equal bids are received for the same lot, prospective Buyer grants AWS the sole and exclusive authority to resolve and/or make all final determinations with respect thereto. If any questions arise as to a bid price at which lots have been sold, the record of the sale kept by AWS shall, in all cases, be accepted by the Buyer as final. Auctions will be extended by 3 minutes at closing if a bid was placed within the last 60 seconds of the auction. Bid extensions will continue to take place until no further bids are placed during the last 60 seconds of an auction. Placing a bid after the close of an auction will not allow an extension to the auction end time. TIES WILL BE SETTLED IN THE FOLLOWING MANNER: • Internet Auctions - On the occasion of a "tied" bid, despite whether the bid was accepted as an "auto-bid" or "straight bid", the lot in question will be awarded to the individual whose bid was received earliest. A time stamp recording is kept of all Internet Auctions and Bidding/Time activities and transactions. PAYMENT TERMS: The Buyer must pay the total purchase price before property may be removed from AWS's site. Credit cards submitted online will automatically be charged the full amount of the Buyer's purchase unless the buyer contacts AWS prior to the close of the sales event. No charges will be made to the credit card until the sales event has been closed and a successful bidder is determined. If the Buyer chooses another form of payment, the following information must accompany a letter of instruction: Company Name Customer Name Telephone Number Lot Number Signature and Date Acceptable forms of payment include VISA™, MasterCard™, cashier's check, money order, wire transfer, and PayPal™. Payment in full must be received within 24 hours of close of sale. AWS will charge a 15% processing fee to every auction won in addition to the final bid amount. This processing fee must be paid before the auction is considered complete and paid for. In the event the Buyer fails to pay the entire purchase price within the time set forth by AWS and/or fails to comply with any of the Terms and Conditions of the sale, AWS will resell the property at public or private sale without further notice. Accordingly, in the event the successful bidder for any item fails, for any reason, to complete the purchase, AWS reserves the right to accept the next highest bid. It is a violation of law to make bids in a false name, even if AWS's software initially accepts such a bid. Please be aware that even if you do not give your real name, your web browser transmits a unique Internet address that can be used by law enforcement officials to identify you. Submitting a false bid puts you at substantial personal legal risk. Fraudulent bidders will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. REMOVAL OF PROPERTY: A schedule for removal of property will be established for each sales event. Buyer must remove all property awarded within this time limit. If for any reason removal cannot be completed within the time period, it is the responsibility of the Buyer to arrange with the AWS Site Manager for an extension of time. AWS shall not be responsible for property that is not removed within the time allotted. If property is not removed within the specified removal period for the sale or scheduled for removal at a later date with the AWS Site Manager, AWS will consider the property to be abandoned by the Buyer and the Buyer shall have abandoned all right, and interest therein. Abandonment or late removal letters will not be sent by AWS to the Buyer prior to exercising the right of abandonment. Items are considered abandoned within 1 week of auction close. In the event that AWS extends the removal period to accommodate a buyer's needs, the Buyer understands and accepts that the liability and risk of loss shall not rest with A & W Surplus, but shall be at the Buyer's own risk. Buyer is responsible for rigging, loading, securing and transporting purchased property, to include all costs and risks associated with removal. In certain situations, unless otherwise stated, AWS will provide a free tailgate loading but will NOT guarantee a specific loading time. In consideration for this 'no cost' loading service, the Buyer agrees to release, hold harmless and waive any and all claims, causes of actions, damages (including consequential damages and/or loss of use) or liabilities of any kind or nature against AWS. At Buyer's request, AWS's personnel may provide information on packing and shipping services. Buyer understands and acknowledges that this is informational only. Buyer further agrees to hold AWS harmless from any liabilities, damages or consequences resulting from the selection and use of said packing and shipping service. Should the Buyer choose to use a transportation company for the removal of their property, AWS will not be responsible for any of the associated costs whatsoever. The Buyer is reminded to be specific and clear in the instructions to the Transportation Company so that AWS is not shown as a responsible financial party. • The Buyer or their agent is responsible for property counts at the time of removal/delivery. Claims after that time will not be honored. PROSPECTIVE BUYERS ARE CAUTIONED THAT: The Buyer hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold AWS harmless from and against any and all damages, costs, claims or liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) for any injuries to persons or property of any type whatsoever, occurring during or resulting from the sale, removal, use or operations of the purchased property. Some items may be subject to export restrictions imposed by applicable U.S. Laws and Regulations. Buyer is responsible for compliance and should become aware of requirements and associated penalties for failure to comply.
