Therefore, we highly recommend that you or your agent personally inspect any items you wish to bid on. By placing a bid, you agree that you have either examined the items to your satisfaction or have chosen not to personally examine the items.

Western Maine Equipment Auctions follows all federal & state (Maine) laws pertaining to auctions. All online bids require a bidder’s paddle number which, in turn, requires registering on Proxibid with a full name, address, phone number, and credit card information. In the case of a disputed bid the auctioneer may decide to reopen the bid or to leave as is. The auctioneer's decision is final on disputed bids. If there is a tie bid between the floor and Internet or absentee bid, the floor bid takes precedence.
