1. READ. ALL. THE. TERMS. AND. CONDITIONS! This will prevent misunderstanding later. 1a. CONDITION of ITEMS - INSPECTION: All items are sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS with no warranties expressed or implied. That means COME TO THE INSPECTION. If you don't or can't, READ THE DESCRIPTION of the item and LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS If you don't see something (such as cords, remotes, accessories, etc.) in the photos, DON'T ASSUME IT'S THERE. Most items are USED. If we do not explicitly say we have tested it, do not assume we have. There are typically measurements of larger items or size references in photos, so please look at ALL pictures before making a request for info. By bidding you agree to accept items in their current condition, whether you have inspected or chosen not to. When in doubt, sit it out! 1b. INFO REQUESTS: We encourage you to ask questions about items and we will respond to the best of our knowledge... However, like anyone else, we deserve some time off. We are NOT always at the gallery on weekends and we are certainly not there 15 minutes before the auction closes, so PLEASE do not expect answers to specific questions that require us to look at the item that close to auction closing time. Look at ALL photos and read all of the description. If your questions are not answered by that info, DO NOT BID. 2. BUYERS PREMIUM: A 16% Buyer's Premium applies to all purchases. 2a. PAYMENTS: All invoices are to be settled within 48 hours of the auction closing time. Any invoices open after that time may, at the auctioneer's discretion, be voided and items resold. Buyers who fail to settle purchases within 48 hours may be banned from bidding in all future sales. This may affect the Buyer's ability to register and bid at other sales as well. 2b. TAX EXEMPT BUYERS: Buyers are considered tax exempt ONLY if we have a valid 595E Tax Exempt Form at the time you register. Forms must not be more than one year old as per NC DOR requirements. Any forms filled out AFTER auction closing will be tax exempt forthe NEXT auction. No sales tax will be refunded if a form IS NOT on file at the time of registration. 2c. Auctioneer reserves the right to require a wire transfer or other form of guaranteed payment from those buyers not known to us, particularly if you are not in the immediate geographic area of the auction gallery and /or if you are purchasing gold, jewelry, coins or precious metals, or if you've made a purchase over $250. If you are not in our geographic area and your credit card declines, the only alternate payment method is a wire transfer, Venmo, or the original credit card on file. This is due to a high incidence of fraud. Purchases will be automatically charged to the credit card on file at the close of the auction unless an alternative payment method is requested Declined credit cards may be subject to a $20 administration fee, so please be sure cards are valid before registering. 3. SALES TAX: NC sales tax will be charged on all purchases unless you have a valid, original, signed reseller certificate on file or are otherwise exempt from paying sales tax -(documentation required). Sales tax exemption forms must be re-submitted EVERY YEAR as per the NC Dept of Revenue. 4. AUCTIONEER DECISONS IN DISPUTES: In all disputes, the decision of the auctioneer is FINAL. Auction company may refuse bids for any reason. 5. INTERNET CONSIDERATIONS: Bidders understand that the internet, wifi connections, servers and the like are not always reliable and that bids placed, may not be received in a timely fashion or at all. It is strongly recommended that bidders bid EARLY by using the Max Bid feature in case of any connection, server or internet issues at the closing of the auction. Auctioneer has the right to stop, delay or extend the auction if possible in the event of any issue that may, in the opinion of the auctioneer, affect the ability of bidders to submit bids. 5a. LOT TIME EXTENSIONS: Our auctions utilize a SOFT CLOSE mechanism. That means the TIME WILL BE EXTENDED by 2 minutes on any lot receiving a bid with less than 2 minutes remaining. This gives the outbid bidder (which could be you) an opportunity to place another bid. This could cause an item to stay open for a good while as people continue bidding. The auction will close when NO bids have been received in the last two minutes. Note: This is NOT like ebay where you can slip a bid in at the end and snatch an item in the last seconds. 6. PICK UP: Pick up times are noted in the auction description. PICK UP is ON PICK DAY so unless you are having items shipped, please be prepared to come at the designated time. We cannot guarantee availability of staff at any other time besides pick up times. You are welcome to send someone to pick up your purchases if we know in advance. Later pickup will be charged at $10/ day for storage ($25 PER ITEM PER DAY for furniture). We do not have space to store items, so we must move them around which uses labor and increases chances for loss and breakage. Failure to pick up items within 14 days after the auction closing time (7 days for furniture) will result in items being considered abandoned. Abandoned items will become property of the auction company to be resold for storage fees without a refund. Buyers purchasing large or heavy items, MUST bring appropriate vehicles and sufficient help to load. 7. SHIPPING: If your address is more than 50 miles from the gallery, we will automatically assume you require shipping unless informed otherwise. Please note we will only ship to the address associated with the registered credit card. We will not ship to a different address. Large, heavy items will not be shipped unless buyer pays a firm to properly palletize and wrap such items. If you desire shipping on a larger item, you must contact the auction house FIRST to verify the item can be shipped. If the shipper cannot contact you due to failure to respond to calls and emails within 2 weeks of receiving items from us, items will be sent back to us and considered to be abandoned. Such items will become property of the Auction Company and may be disposed of sold to cover labor, storage and administrative fees associated with handing, and or re-listing the items. No refunds will be provided on abandoned items so please be sure all registration info is up to date so you can be contacted in a timely fashion if you require shipping. 7a. Due To The Size And Nature Of Some Of These Items, Auction Orange Recommends Professional Movers To Move the large items (large tables, mirrors, pool table). Should buyer choose to load large items without a professional mover, buyer is responsible for bringing proper vehicle and manpower to load items. The large items are quite heavy and will need lots of manpower to move. Auction Orange does have a potato chip truck height dock that will be available for loading. Auction Orange Will Not Be Responsible For Assisting In Loading These Items. If you desire shipping on a larger item, you must contact the auction house FIRST to verify the item can be shipped. It Will Be The Buyer's Responsibility to Arrange Shipping on large items. Auction Orange Will Not Be Responsible to Crate, Load Or Transport Items To Shipping Company. Pick-ups by hired shippng companies must pick-up during Auction Orange's business hours. If You Require Shipping, We Recommend Having A Shipping Plan Prior To The Close Of The Auction. Pick-up For The Auction Is Monday, December 5th From 2-6. If You Require Shipping, Shipping needs to be Arranged Immediately As We Do Not Have Space To Store Items. If Items Are Not Picked Up Or Shipping Is Not Arranged In A Timely Matter, Storage Fees Will Be Charged At $25 per day per items With Charges Beginning On Friday, December 9th. 8. ITEMS SOLD "TIMES THE MONEY": Many items are "times the bid", meaning that your bid is multiplied times the number of items indicated IN RED on the listing, where you bid, and in the title as the quantity followed by "X". Bidder is responsible for knowing this considering it is in THREE places in the live catalog. We will not reverse bids on lots that are already closed due to "not knowing" or "not seeing" that the lot was sold "times the money" or for any other reason. Bidder is responsible for knowing the indicated quantity is "times the money."
