Special Terms
- All items are sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS, WITH OUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. Items are NOT inspected and any descriptive information provided, such as Runs & Moves, is to the best of our knowledge and should not be construed as a guarantee that the item is fully functional. 100% accuracy of the information provided is not guaranteed. No statement at all indicates that the item has not or could not be tested and the buyer should beware. This is not an 'absolute' auction, some items are being offered with a reserve or minimum bid amount. Some items may have a buyer fee which is in addition to the internet fee. Read the description of each item carefully before bidding.
- A valid photo I.D. issued by a local, state or federal agency will be required to complete all transactions.
- We are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 p.m. for you to visually inspect our inventory but some items may not be available until sale day.
- Vehicles and equipment will only be demonstrated by our personnel on the day before the auction.
- Items left on the auction grounds are at your own risk. T.M.A. is not responsible for damaged or stolen items. Waiting for your check to clear does NOT change this as your method of payment is your choice not ours.
- Storage fees of $10 per day per item will begin the third Monday (two weeks) after the auction. We need the space to set up our next auction so please do not use us for storage.
- Items left on our property for longer than 30 days will be considered abandoned and disposed of as such according to the laws of the State of Florida.
- In most cases we can provide assistance with loading free of charge as a courtesy. We will do this only with the understanding that we will not be held liable for any damages which may occur. If a battery is dead we can provide a jump start but some are so bad that you will have to replace it before the item can function properly.
Applicable sales tax will be collected on all transactions unless a valid Florida tax exempt certificate has been provided prior to or on the day of the sale. Acceptable documentation according to the Florida Department of Revenue is a Florida dealer license and tax exempt certificate for titled items or just a tax exempt certificate for non-titled items. If you are a dealer from another state then you will have to provide us with your states equivalent documents and you will have to sign an out of state dealer affidavit for our records. Purchasing something to export to another state or country does not in of itself exempt a transaction from sales tax in Florida. Since we are not involved in the shipping, sales tax will be collected on all items purchased by a retail buyer for export.
For titled items a valid Motor Vehicle Dealer license must also be provided to exempt the transaction from sales tax and title fees. The current typical Florida titles fees are $75.75 for State & County fees, $25 agency fees and $20 dealer fees for a total of $120.75 but may vary by the type of vehicle, transfer and/or the type of original title. The highest possible transfer fee would be $145.75 and the lowest would be $50.75. All title transfers in Florida will become electronic titles unless otherwise requested and specifically noted on the invoice. License plates can be purchased or transferred through us at exactly the same rates charged by the County tax collector and will vary based on the class of vehicle and the type of buyer. A typical passenger car tag for an individual is around $300. Proof of insurance will be required to buy or transfer a license plate and a registration will be required to transfer a plate. If you choose not to buy or transfer a license plate through us then keep in mind that you will not be able to do either yourself at a tax collector's office until you receive a title receipt from us showing we have processed your title. This could take several weeks but by law we have thirty days from the date of sale to process the title.
