Buyers are to inspect the items before bidding and determine for themselves if the item is the one they want. We can take calls and emails starting the week of the auction, when all items are out for a view and will answer any questions, you may have at that time when we have the items available to check them out. We will describe them to the best of our ability, but that in no way constitutes an evaluation or guarantee of the value, condition or correctness of the items.

All items are considered sold and become the property of the bidder whose buyer’s number is announced when the hammer falls and the Auctioneer says Sold. In case of tie bids, the bid taken by the Auctioneer will stand. The bidding will be reopened between those two bidders only and it is the responsibility of the alternate bidder to increase his bid in order to resume bidding on the item. If this bidder declines to bid, the item belongs to the first bidder. If a potential bid is missed? by a ringman, bid taker or auctioneer, it is the Auctioneers sole prerogative to reopen bidding if a question arises as to who had the bid when the hammer falls. It will be between the two bidders only, not open to the floor. NOTHING IS TO BE REMOVED UNTIL PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. It is the buyer’s responsibility to keep track of the items purchased and to check their receipt tickets at the checkout, before departing the auction. SHIPPING: Remember SOME ITEMS are heavy and/or BULKY and shipping charges will be based on weight and size of the box, as well as destination.
