Invoices are either paid or unpaid in their entirety. It is Proxibid’s discretion to put a non-paying bidder into a blacked flagged status. This status may result in termination of all current Proxibid bidding activity. Any bids currently in progress with Falcon America South Inc. and any other auction may be removed.

The auction encourages all bidders who can not meet pick-up deadlines to contact the auction before participating. If the auction can accommodate an extended pick-up deadline for an individual bidder, it must be coordinated prior to bids being placed and must be approved by the auction. It is best to do this via email in order to provide a written confirmation that an extended pick-up is mutually agreeable. Payment and Pick-Up deadlines are provided before the auction. Although most auctions will provide approximately three business days for pick-up, there are auctions that will impose deadlines as short as one-day.

Unpaid bidders will be reported/collected by Proxibid.Ensure your wire transfer if for the correct amount.

Any arrangements for late or extended pick-up need to be coordinated before the deadline. For example, if the pick-up deadline is Sunday, do not complain on Tuesday that you need extra time to pay or pick-up. Deadlines would have been posted for the auction that pick-up was until Sunday.

Disclaimer-All Property is sold, “AS IS”, “WHERE IS” and “WITH ALL FAULTS.” All property is being offered and sold in its, AS IS, WHERE IS condition at the time of the auction, with all faults, including any hidden defects of any nature. Neither the Auctioneer nor Seller makes any representations, warranties or guarantees whatsoever, express or implied regarding the nature, value, source, authenticity, fitness, merchantability and/or any other aspect or characteristics of such property. No statement anywhere, whether express or implied, including verbal statements made by Auctioneer will be deemed a warranty or representation by Auctioneer or Seller. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, there are no warranties of non-infringement, authenticity, origin, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. All of which are expressly disclaimed. The bidder acknowledges and agrees that you cannot rely, and have not relied on any representation, warranty or guarantee made by Auctioneer or Seller or anyone acting as an agent of the Seller, orally or in writing. By bidding you acknowledge and agree that you have had a full and fair opportunity to inspect the property and that you are relying solely on, or that you have waived such inspection and investigation (1) in determining whether to bid, (2) in determining the amount of a bid and (3) in bidding. There are no warranties which extend beyond the description of the item. Bidder Acknowledgement-By submitting a bid, the registered bidder is acknowledging that they are familiar with the merchandise and have agreed to accept the purchased goods as per the terms and conditions of this contract. Identification Numbers-Serial Numbers, Maker Marks, Vehicle Identification Numbers are provided on many items. It is highly recommended that a bidder use this information to research an item’s history prior to placing a bid. Responsible Bidding-The Bidder is responsible for knowing which item(s) they are bidding on at all times. Once a bid is placed, the bidder will have affected a contract and will be expected to pay for items which the bidder was evidenced to be the successful bidder, whether in-person/on-site or online with Proxibid.com. The Auctioneer will not honor alleged bidder mistakes. Registered Bidders are responsible for all bids placed from their Proxibid User Account. When placing pre-bids, it is highly discouraged to bid on any item you do not intend to win and ultimately pay for. A Bidder is not to contact the auction after the event, upset that they bid on several items and surprisingly, won all of the items. Any item that a bidder places bids on can result in that bidder becoming the high bidder. Auctioneer Announcements-All announcements made on the day of the auction supersede all printed / published material. For example, if there was a typographical error to a cataloged item or update to an item, such a the inclusion or exclusion of additional merchandise, the auctioneer would declare this information prior to its sale. This information may also be presented via the Proxibid Live Bidder Application in the form of a message to all bidders, effectively becoming a documented record. Catalog Errors-The auction is not responsible for catalog mistakes in the areas of; typographical errors, photography uploads or taxonomy categories/labels if the correct information for the item exists elsewhere in the listing/description. For example, if the mileage is incorrectly listed in the item's taxonomy label, but correctly presented in the photographs of the item, the auction will not be responsible because the correct mileage was contained in the listing. A bidder should always read the entire listing/description of an item as well as view all photographs. The bidder should bring any listing discrepancies to the attention of the auction as soon as possible. Never bid on an item until a concern is fully answered or resolved. VIN and SERIAL numbers are extremely useful in assisting the bidder in making an informed decision. Pre-Bids-Pre-Bids can not be removed. A Bidder should not contact the auction asking if their bids can be removed. This is an unfair bidding practice, causing disruption to the pre-bidding activity for all involved. It is also unfair to a consignor for those items. Unless a legitimate bidding error has been made, it is likely a request to remove pre-bids will result in a bidder’s loss of privilege to continue bidding. Once the live auction begins, no bids can or will be removed. Pre-Bidding on an item prior to the live auction does not imply or guarantee that the bidder will effectively become the highest bidder, even if the final hammer price is equal or less than the amount of the maximum pre-bid. A bidder can still be outbid, depending on the increment offered. Bidder Proxibid User Account-The Bidder is responsible for all bids placed from their Proxibid User Account. The auction does not register bidders for the auction, nor bid on a bidder’s behalf. The auction is simply notified by Proxibid that the bidder has registered for the auction.

A bidder should not call the auction claiming that bids were placed on their behalf. There is no system in place within the Proxibid platform for this to exist.

It is the bidder’s responsibility to secure passwords to their account and not to leave the Live Bidding Application unattended during an event.

No items are removed without an invoice that is completely satisfied. There is no right to partial pick-up on a partially paid invoice unless otherwise agreed upon by the auction. For example, if a bidder makes an appointment to pay and pick-up their merchandise, and an item is missing/can not be located at the time of pick-up, the bidder will not be obligated to pay for that item at the arranged time of pick-up.

This application is only available during the designated payment and pick-up period for an auction event. When an appointment is selected from 4:30pm-5:00pm there is an expectation that the bidder will arrive at 4:30pm, not later. In this circumstance, a 30-minute window has been provided for pick-up.
