Some items are not eligible for shipping. Items that are available for shipping will be marked in the catalog with the text, "Shipping Available," and a little box truck icon. Any items that do not have this text and marking are not available for shipping, or the buyer must arrange their own 3rd Party for shipping. As a general rule, furniture and clocks will not be shipped. Items may be updated prior to 3 days from the auction close, so please do not assume that large items are eligible for shipping. Smaller items are almost always eligible for shipping. Please feel free to email the Auctioneer and ask if an item is eligible for shipping. The buyer will be charged actual shipping cost plus any necessary parcel insurance and a Handling fee. Handling fees are at the discretion of the Auctioneer, and these fees are calculated as a combination of the time it takes the shipper to process a shipping order and the quantity and/or type of materials used in packaging. The Auctioneer provides a professional shipping department to facilitate shipping & handling services for non-local buyers. Small and simple packages that take 10 minutes or less to pack and ship are charged $5 in Handling fees. Any package that takes over 10 minutes to pack and ship will be charged a minimum of a $10 Handling fee, and the Auctioneer will charge an additional $10 in Handling fees for every additional15 minutes required to pack and ship an order. For example, a complicated shipment that takes 45 minutes to pack and ship will be charged approximately $35-$40 in Handling fees. Materials and boxes are fairly inexpensive and provided for free in most cases. Any use of foam board to protect flat items will have at least an additional $5 Handling fee. Large packages and any packages with more than 4 items will also have at least an additional $5 Handling fee for materials. In any instance where a buyer is unhappy with the Auctioneer's handling fees, the Auctioneer will recommend local pickup or will also offer the option of transporting the items to Fedex for their Pack & Ship service with a $5 transportation fee added to the order. Any time an order is transported to Fedex for Fedex Pack & Ship service, this is considered "buyer arranged shipping." Therefore, once an order is transferred to Fedex, it becomes the buyer's responsibility to contact Fedex and arrange for packing, shipping, and payment at their lofty prices. ***The Auctioneer is not responsible for filing insurance claims. In the very rare occurrence of a damaged package, it is the Winning Bidder's responsibility to file an insurance claim. The Auctioneer will assist the Winning Bidder with any necessary documentation required by the claims adjuster, but The Auctioneer will not file insurance claims.*** 15.
