BIDDING: Online bidding is to be considered a binding contract. Bids are taken with the general understanding that the bidder will honor their winning bid along with all applicable taxes and fees. Do not bid if you do not intend to pay. You will be automatically emailed if you are outbid and are welcome to enter a max bid (site will bid automatically for you only when another bid surpasses yours until your max bid is reached). Check back often and check your email for outbid notices. Notification of winning bids will be sent via email along with an auction invoice within 24 hours of the auction closing. Check your "spam" email folder if you do not receive your invoice within that time frame.
CLOSE OF BIDDING: The bidding will begin to close at 6PM (Eastern Time Zone), Wednesday - April 9, 2025. The closing of some items may be extended in the event of last minute bidding.
EXTENDED BIDDING: All items in the auction will be subject to an extended ending, where at the close of the auction, any bidding activity on an item within 30 seconds of the closing time will automatically extend the bidding for 5 more minutes past the time of the last bid. The bidding on that lot will continue to remain open in 5 minute intervals as long as there is bidding activity within 5 minutes of the previous bid. Once there is no bidding activity within the 5 minute period, the bidding on that item will close. For example, if a lot is supposed to close at 7:00 PM but a last minute bid is placed at 6:59PM, bidding will be extended until 7:05 PM. If another bid is placed on an item at 7:01 PM, bidding will then close at 7:06 PM, unless subsequent bids are placed.
