We will notify you by email if your approval to bid at this auction has been terminated or suspended. Bidding Time: This auction is a timed auction event. Bidding is scheduled to begin and close at the times set forth on the West Central Sales and Auction website. All time references on the bidding site for West Central Sales and Auction's online auctions are expressed in Central Standard Time (CST),and you should therefore be mindful of the need to convert to local time when bidding on auctions of properties located in other time zones. It is your responsibility to check the West Central Sales and Auction website carefully so that you are aware of the scheduled closing time. Extended Bidding Time: The Auction is scheduled to begin on the “Starting Date and Time” and tentatively end on the “Scheduled Ending Date and Time” that are listed on the West Central Sales and Auction website; however, for a bid received just before the Scheduled Ending Date and Time, an automatic extension feature "soft-close" in the online-bidding platform will extend the Scheduled Ending Date and Time and keep the Auction open for an additional period of time beyond the time that the last bid was received, and this process will repeat every time a subsequent bid is received. Subsequent and additional extensions shall be applied to any and all bids placed during any such extension period until an extension period has expired without additional bids being placed, at which time the bidding time, as extended, shall be closed. The number of minutes of Extended Bidding Time may vary in the sole discretion of the Auctioneer. For example, if the extension period specified by the auctioneer is 5 minutes, and the scheduled ending time is 2 PM but a bid is placed at 1:59 PM, the auction closing time would be extended by 5 minutes and the auction would close at 2:04 PM. Because of the possibility of extended bidding time, Bidders should continue to participate in the auction until receiving notification that the auction has closed and, in the case of a presumed High Bidder, until receiving a notification of the amount of the high bid as of the time of closing of the auction. Bidder Responsibility: Bidders must take care in entering bids, and each Bidder will be responsible for all bids placed under the Bidder’s approved registration. Once entered and recorded online, a bid is deemed to be final on behalf of the registered Bidder and may not be modified, retracted or rescinded in whole or in part. Bid Increments: Once bidding has commenced, any advances on a bid must be made in increments at least as great as those which we, in our sole discretion, have determined. We may, in our sole discretion, change or modify the required bid increments from time to time, or at multiple times, during the auction. Maximum Bid Amount: We also provide opportunities for a bidder to submit a maximum bid amount (often called a “Max Bid”) and to direct that our website bid on such bidder’s behalf in scheduled increments until the maximum amount identified by the bidder has been reached. In the event that you later enter a max bid with the same maximum bid amount as was previously authorized by another bidder’s max bid, or enter a specific bid in the same amount as was previously authorized by another bidder’s max bid, the other bidder’s max bid as previously entered before your bid will be deemed to be the prevailing bid at that amount, and you will be deemed to be outbid. In the event that there should be any dispute among competitive bidders with regard to the identity or amount of the high bid, the Auctioneer may reopen bidding on the property and may, in conjunction with such reopening of the bidding, designate one of the bidders as the “High Bidder” in the Auctioneer’s sole discretion. All decisions by the Auctioneer shall be final. Technical Problems: We have made reasonable efforts to provide for online bidding for this auction. You recognize and acknowledge, however, that technical problems with hardware, software, or internet connectivity, as well as human errors, may arise and may affect, without limitation, the West Central Sales and Auction website, our online bidding program and process, your or our internet service and access, and your connection to this auction’s bidding program and process. You further acknowledge that these and other technical problems may develop at any time and with or without notice. You acknowledge and agree that neither we nor the Seller is in any way responsible for any such technical problems, and that you have no absolute or other right to be able to bid on this auction in the event of any such technical problems. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you further acknowledge and agree that, in the event of any such technical problems, we reserve the right to postpone or cancel the auction and/or extend the bidding time for this auction and/or relist the property for auction at another time, in our sole discretion, and that our decision with regard to any such actions is and will be final.
