TERMS AND CONDITIONS
By registering for this auction, you indicate that you have read and agree to the full terms and conditions set forth below.
The purchase price shall be the final hammer price plus a buyer's premium of 18% (absentee), 20% (HiBid), and 23% (Live Auctioneers).
We strive to provide accurate descriptions and condition reports, but all lots are sold AS IS. Please read the descriptions and examine the photos. We are happy to answer your questions and provide additional and higher-resolution photographs. Please ask! We will answer questions in the order in which they are received.
By bidding on any lot, you acknowledge that you are satisfied with the item(s) as is and are prepared to pick up or have shipped every item in all lots purchased. ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
You may bid in our auction in two ways:
1. Place an absentee bid directly with us (call or email for more information). We will execute your bid competitively and honestly. Absentee bids left directly with us are subject to a buyer's premium of 18%.
2. Bid via HiBid or Live Auctioneers. Bids may be left in advance of the auction, or you may bid live during the sale on September 18. The execution of online bids will be handled by the bidding platforms. Meander Auctions will not be held liable for any missed bids due to technical issues or loss of internet connectivity. Bids executed through live auction platforms are subject to a higher buyer's premium than our 18% in-house premium. The auctioneer will have sole discretion to settle any and all bidding disputes.
PAYMENT
Invoices will be sent out soon after the auction. Payment is due upon receipt of that invoice. We accept most major credits, as well as cash (if you are picking up). Payment may be made by phone or at the time of pickup. For buyers needing their purchase(s) shipped, we will reach out to you regarding shipping after the invoice has been paid. The buyer's premium is the same regardless of payment method. No lots will be released without full payment.
PICKUP
All items from this auction are available for pickup by appointment at our gallery: 6825 State Route 821, Whipple, OH.
SHIPPING
We can ship many lots in this auction in-house. We charge for the cost of shipping, insurance, materials, and time. THE COST FOR SHIPPING WILL NOT BE ON YOUR INITIAL INVOICE. We will send a separate invoice for the shipping charge, so please pay the sale invoice immediately and let us know if you wish us to ship your item(s). We will then calculate the shipping charge and send a second invoice.
For furniture and larger items that we cannot ship, please see "How to Buy" on our website at meanderauctions.com for a list of shippers.
