Zettlemoyer Auction Co., LLC will not be responsible for any missed bids from any source. Internet bidders who desire to make certain their bid is acknowledged should use the proxy-bidding feature and leave their maximum bid 12 hours before the auction begins.

INTERNET BIDDERS take note: WE do not, at any time, either before, during or after bidding, know the max bid amount on any prebids. The max bid amounts ARE NOT disclosed to us by Proxibid. Therefore it is possible, depending on the opening bid on the auction floor and the bidding that occurs between the floor and the internet that we may be accepting a floor bid for your max bid amount before your max bid total is relayed to us from Proxibid and you would lose the bid. We feel that this is fairer to everyone than us knowing what you plan to bid. The only way sure way to prevent losing the bid this way is for you the internet bidder to contact us prior to the start of the auction by email (info@zettauction.com) and instruct us to start the bidding on your item at a specific price.
