PLACE: National Auction Company will conduct the Auction, and information can be found at www.natlauction.com. The auction platform of Proxibid will be used for this event. 6. INSPECTION OF VEHICLES: • School Buses and other items included in this auction will not be available for Preview because they are located at restricted School Bus Terminals. As noted in the auction materials, Buses and Vehicles are not located at one Terminal, making pre-event previews difficult to schedule. Specific questions should be directed to George Richards at 954-658-5033. • As much as possible, all of the Buses and Vehicles that could be started and driven were taken to the Northwest Bus Terminal, 2600 NW 18 Terrace, Pompano Beach, Florida 33071. Buses located at any of the other Terminal locations could not be started and are considered to be Non-Run vehicles. • Auction descriptions include information regarding which buses started on their own or were jump-started. It is possible that between the time the auction was being set up and when vehicles are picked up, they may not start on their own but will need to be jump-started. • If the description of any bus indicates it does not start or run, bidders should not assume these units can be started. • Auction descriptions of each unit include information regarding the operation of air-conditioning. It is possible that between the time the auction was being set up and when vehicles are picked up, the air-conditioning may no longer be functioning. • Potential bidders/purchasers will not be permitted to drive any vehicle before the auction. ALL SCHOOL BUSES, VEHICLES, and EQUIPMENT ARE OFFERED IN AS-IS CONDITION. • The information included on the Website may include videos of School Buses that could be started. It is possible that inventory described as “Non-Run” can be started and driven; however, when auction materials were being gathered, those marked as Non-Run could not be started. • Some of the vehicles included in this auction have not been driven for an extended period. It is possible some will not start on their own and may require new batteries or mechanical repairs. Additionally, the condition of the tires is unknown, and it is possible that some of the vehicles cannot be safely driven over long distances. Many of the School Buses were driven from other Broward County School District Terminals for the convenience of the auction. • Every effort has been made to accurately illustrate and describe the condition of School Buses and other items included in this auction. However, it is possible that not all defects were observed. It is also possible that between the time auction materials were gathered and when items are picked up by Top Bidders, charging levels in batteries could have changed. The fact that auction materials indicate a vehicle could be started but will not start at the time it is being picked up will not be cause for any sale to be voided. Every effort will be made to assist as much as possible. • Many of the Schools Buses included in this auction are exempt from odometer/mileage statements. Odometer readings/hour meter readings included as part of the vehicle information are as reported by the Broward County School Board and might not be accurate. To the extent possible, odometer readings stated in the auction materials were verified. If actual odometer readings/hour meters are different from those reported in the auction information, it will not be a cause for invalidation of the sale. • Each item included in this auction is specifically offered and sold in As-Is condition without guaranty or warranty, either expressed or implied. 7.
