All such charges shall be the sole responsibility of the Buyer. The Buyer or the Buyer’s agent is responsible for arriving with a paid in full invoice and the appropriate equipment to safely transport the item purchased.

No testing or operational assessments have been made on items sold through the Auctioneer. Auctioneer only reports hours and miles that are shown on the meter at the time of listing for auction and makes no guarantees that the miles/hours shown on meter are the actual miles/hours. Items that require an electrical connection to operate have not been tested and there is no guarantee as to performance.

BUYER RESPONSIBILITY TO INSPECT AND DETERMINE SUITABILITY FOR USE AND ITEM LOCATION

It is the responsibility of Buyers to inspect an item prior to bidding in order to assess the items operational condition, and suitability for use. Seller's contact information and location of the item will be provided with a listing description of each item for sale. Potential Bidders should contact the Seller for the exact location of an item, along with directions, and inspect the item before bidding. In no event does failure to contact the Seller or failure to inspect an item prior to bidding serve as grounds for collapsing the sale, rescinding the transaction, or requesting a rebate or refund. Auctioneer often sells items that are located and will be required to be picked up by buyer at various locations.

BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO DETERMINE SUITABILITY FOR USE REGARDING EMISSIONS 

It is each Buyers responsibility to verify and determine if an auction item including vehicles and equipment meets the emissions requirements in the County and State for which the item is to be utilized. Although, Auctioneer may provide notations or information as to emissions compliance it cannot be relied upon by the Buyer, and it is the Buyers ultimate responsibility to verify emissions compliance. No refunds or deductions will be provided to the Buyer for the lack of an item being able to comply with any emissions requirement.  It is common that that any item with a diesel engine may not be operated in the Stae of California regardless of age. All items with two stroke engines are strictly sold for use outside of the state of California. If a resident of California purchase any of these items mentioned above they hereby agree to remove these items from the state of California prior to operation.

FAILURE TO INSPECT 

It is each Buyers responsibility to inspect items. We encourage you to email, call, or show up to the preview to inspect items and gather more information. Failure to inspect an item prior to bidding is not grounds for a dispute, refusal to pay or refusal to take possession of the purchased item. If after reviewing a claim, in the Auctioneer's judgement there is no grounds for dispute, the transaction will be considered closed. Refusal to take possession of the unit at that point will result in forfeiture of the purchase price. The includes items that are concealed in packaging.

AUCTIONEER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR VERBAL OR WRITTEN SELLER STATEMENTS 

Auctioneer is not responsible for statements, written or verbal, made by the Seller. Buyer should carefully validate all such statements by inspecting the item prior to bidding. Failure to inspect the item is not grounds for dispute. Bidder is to use their due diligence prior to bidding, as no bids will be retracted. There is no refund for any reason. Buyer is fully aware there is no recourse to rescind or abrogate the transaction after becoming the highest bidder. This includes items that are concealed in packaging.

COLLAPSED SALE 

A "Collapsed Sale" shall be a sale that for any reason becomes null and void. You acknowledge that the Auctioneer reserves the right to collapse any sale between you and the Seller for any reason and may return any or all funds to you. 

FAILURE TO PAY/BUYER PAYMENT DEFAULT 

If a Buyer fails to pay for an item, they are subject to collection on the full purchase price and any associated taxes and fees, or if the item is sold to the second highest bidder or relisted by the Seller, any shortfall in resale price plus 25% of the final sale price in liquidated damages. Failure to pay will also result in the Buyer’s account being suspended from participation in all future auctions.

ABANDONMENTS 

Should Buyer fail to remove purchased items within ten (10) business days of winning the bid, Buyer agrees to pay a storage fee of $10 per day, per lot until the items are removed from Auctioneer or Seller’s location. All such charges shall be the sole responsibility of the Buyer. The Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless; Seller, Auctioneer, and its agents against all damages, liabilities, claims, or causes of action arising out of said property storage. If Buyer fails to remove the purchased item(s) within thirty (30) calendar days of winning the bid, Buyer stipulates and consents to the fact that said purchased items shall be considered “abandoned”. 

In the event the sale price of said items not removed was $1,000 bid price or less, Seller may dispose of said items as Seller, in Seller’s sole discretion, sees fit without remuneration of any kind to Buyer. In the event the sale price of said items not removed exceeds $1,000 bid price, Buyer and Seller agree said items will be placed for sale in the next auction. In furtherance thereof, Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints Seller as its power of attorney for the purpose of re-listing and re-selling said abandoned property in such case, Buyer consents to and agrees that all storage fees, handling costs, sales commissions, and a 20% administration fee for the “re-sale” of the items will be deducted from the final sale price and Buyer authorizes Auctioneer to make such deductions. Buyer, in such event, authorizes Seller, on its behalf, to transfer ownership/title to the new buyer and Buyer agrees and acknowledges that any ownership interest Buyer has in said items shall then terminate. 

In the case of titled vehicles, Buyer agrees to promptly return the title for said vehicle to Auctioneer within 7 days after said vehicle has been considered abandoned by these terms. In the event Buyer fails to do so, Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints Seller as its power of attorney for the purpose of applying for a lost, or other such replacement title, including any associated paperwork needed to obtain such title, so as to allow for the disposition or re-sale thereof. In the event of re-sale, upon receipt by Auctioneer of such resale amount, any proceeds remaining after the deductions as set forth herein, will be returned to the abandoning Buyer, provided Auctioneer is able to determine a method for doing so. It shall be the duty and responsibility of Buyer to keep the Auctioneer updated on Buyer’s correct contact information. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold Auctioneer harmless from Buyer’s failure to timely remove the purchased items as agreed, as well as for Buyer’s failure to keep Auctioneer updated on Buyer’s current contact information. Auctioneer also maintains the right to suspend the bidding privileges of any Buyer who does not pick up item purchased in the auction within the specified terms. 

Entering into a separate storage agreement with the Seller is between the Buyer and Seller, and Auctioneer has no responsibility for resolving any subsequent conflicts or disagreements which arise between Buyer and Seller.
