Additional Terms Regarding eBay Live Auctions. eBay Live Auction ending times are not always accurate, and as such, the Auction Company is not responsible for any problems this may cause. Any pre-sale estimates provided by the Auction Company are the Auction Company's opinion of the price that a willing buyer would pay for the property at auction. These estimates are solely the opinion of the Auction Company, based, where possible, on prices paid for comparable items sold in the past. They are neither a representation nor a prediction of the actual selling price that will be realized at auction which may be substantially different from these estimates. The Auction Company shall not be liable in any way for such a difference. The eBay bid history for eBay Live Auctions may show consecutive bids placed by the same bidder. Statement made though the eBay Live Auctions bidding applet shall supercede any previous statements made by the Auction Company. The Auction Company reserves the right to accept a floor bid for the same price as an eBay Live Auctions bid, regardless of which bid was placed first. The Auction Company also reserves the right to break a tie bid on the floor without giving eBay Live bidders the same opportunity. The Auction Company may, or may not, stick to the published eBay Live Auctions bidding increments and may set its own bid increments as it sees fit. A prospective Buyer agrees to opt into the Auction Company's mailing list by registering for the auction. The Auction Company will post positive feedback for the Buyer immediately after the Buyer posts positive feedback for the Auction Company. 21. Auction Company's Authority. The Auction Company is the sole determinant as to who is the successful high bidder. The successful high bidder assumes full risk and responsibility for the property once the property is sold. A lot will be sold to the highest bidder as determined in the sole and exclusive judgment of the Auction Company. The Auction Company will also have the sole and exclusive power and authority to a) resolve any disputes between bidders, b) determine whether to pass or re-offer a lot for sale, c) reject or challenge any bid or advance in the bidding, d) exclude any bidder from the premises and e) otherwise regulate the bidders, the bidding and its increments. The Auction Company reserves the right to re-open the bidding on any disputed lot. The Auction Company also reserves the right to reject nominal bids and to withdraw from the auction items that do not receive a bid reflective of an item's worth. In the event of any discrepancies, saleroom records take precedence regarding sale price and the winning bidder. 22. Absentee Bids. The Auction Company shall use reasonable care to carry out written absentee bids made prior to the auction for the convenience of clients who are not present at the auction in person. Bids must be placed in US currency. If the Auction Company receives written bids on a particular lot for identical amounts, and these are the highest bids on the lot at the auction, the lot will be sold to the bidder whose written bid was received and accepted first. Execution of written absentee bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the auction, and the Auction Company disclaims any and all liability for failing to execute a written bid or for errors and omissions in connection with it.
