Placing a bid is your promise/agreement to purchase. When you bid, you have committed to paying for and picking up your item(s) if you win. Please do not bid on items you are not able to pick up during the designated pick up date(s) and times. Due to seller constraints, times are not flexible, so please have a plan B ready if you decide to bid. Auctions are a legal agreement between a buyer and a seller. Since a bid is a commitment to buy, if you default on your purchase, your bidding privileges will be revoked and your winnings will be donated or resold. Please do not bid if you do not plan to pay.
