TERMS AND CONDITIONS - ONLINE AUCTION SALE By participating in this Online Auction Sale, you agree to abide by the following Terms and Conditions. It's recommended that you carefully review and understand these Terms and Conditions before engaging in any bidding activities. In the following Terms and Conditions, an individual who registers to place bids in the online auction is referred to as the "Bidder", the successful Bidder (i.e., the highest Bidder) for an item/lot is referred to as the "Buyer", and Moe's Auction House (Moe's Auctioneering Service Inc.) is referred to as the "Auctioneer". *****PLEASE READ (Updated March 2024) ***** (1) ELIGIBILITY AND UNDERSTANDING: Prior to registration, Bidders must be of legal age and must carefully read and comprehend the Terms and Conditions for the Online Auction Sale. (2) AUCTION EXTENSION: In the event that a bid is placed within the final minute of the auction for an item/lot, the bidding time for that item/lot will be extended by an additional three minutes. (3) BUYER'S PREMIUM AND SALES TAX: A 15% Buyer's premium (for administration costs) will be added to the final sale price of all items, followed by the application of 15% sales tax (HST) to the total invoice amount. (4) BIDDER INFORMATION, CREDIT CARD ON FILE, AND METHODS OF PAYMENT: All Bidders are required to complete the Bidder information form and furnish valid credit card details to Moe's Auctioneering Service Inc., which will be kept on file by the Auctioneer within secure auction management software associated with the HiBid auction platform. Our system will authorize the Bidder's credit card on file, but the Auctioneer will only apply charges to the card if the Bidder becomes a Buyer by successfully placing the highest bid on one or more of the items/lots for sale in the auction. Once the auction closes, all applicable charges related to successful bids for which the invoice total is $1000 or less (including the Buyer's premium and sales tax) will be automatically applied to the Buyer's credit card on file and the Auctioneer will send an electronic receipt to the Buyer via email. If you would prefer to pay via e-transfer or PayPal instead of having your credit card charged, please contact the Auctioneer in advance of the auction closing to indicate this preference; we will try our best to accommodate any such requests made in a timely manner. If PayPal is your preferred method of payment, please note that 4% will be added to your invoice total to cover PayPal's service fees. In cases where a Buyer's invoice total exceeds $1000 (including the Buyer's premium and sales tax), the Auctioneer will send the Buyer an invoice via email. The Buyer will then have the option to pay the invoice total via e-transfer to support@moesauctions.com without incurring any further fees. However, if the Buyer's preferred method of payment is via credit card or PayPal, 4% will be added to the invoice to cover applicable third-party processing/service fees. This additional 4% charge applies to all payments made via PayPal, regardless of the invoice total, but only applies to credit card payments if the invoice total is more than $1000. (5) PAYMENT REQUIRED IN A TIMELY MANNER: The Auctioneer reserves the right to keep and resell, on behalf of the consignor, any item(s)/lot(s) that the Buyer has not yet paid for in full (i.e., with all funds received by Auctioneer) within three business days after the auction closing date. A Buyer's failure to pay for item(s)/lot(s) won in the auction may result in legal action against the Buyer.? (6) PICK-UP PROCEDURE: The scheduled pick-up event date(s) and time(s) for Buyers to collect their items/lots are indicated under the "Auction Information" section of the HiBid webpage for the auction and are also stated on the receipts/invoices that the Auctioneer issues to Buyers. Please notify the Auctioneer in advance of pick-up if someone else will be collecting your item(s)/lot(s) on your behalf. Unless the Buyer has made alternative arrangements with the Auctioneer in advance of the auction closing, Buyers are expected to collect their items/lots during the scheduled pick-up event timeframe and must provide their own assistance, tools, and materials for packing and transporting their items/lots away from the Auction House premises. The Auctioneer will not release any item/lot to the Buyer for which there is an unpaid balance owing. Any item(s)/lot(s) that remain uncollected by the Buyer (i.e., any item[s]/lot[s] left by the Buyer either at the Auction House or at the off-site auction location, as applicable) beyond the timeframes specified under section 9 of these Terms and Conditions may incur storage fees and/or be considered abandoned and forfeited by the Buyer without refund or reimbursement. Refer to section 9 of these Terms and Conditions for more details. (7) CONDITION OF ITEMS/LOTS SOLD IN AUCTION AND OPPORTUNITY TO PREVIEW ITEMS/LOTS IN-PERSON: All items/lots are sold "as is, where is" and all sales are final. The Auctioneer strives to provide accurate descriptions and images of the items/lots for sale in our auctions. Although our item/lot descriptions are believed to be accurate, they are not guaranteed. The auction catalogue is intended solely as a guide or reference, and no sale will be invalidated due to any defects or inaccuracies in the catalogue. We always try our best to note any known damage and/or other known condition issues (if applicable) in our item/lot descriptions and also to include photographs showing any known damage and/or other known condition issues (if applicable) in our online catalogue. Unfortunately, sometimes things get missed, which is why we hold preview events for all of our auctions. These preview events give prospective bidders the opportunity to browse and inspect items/lots in-person so that they can make fully informed bidding decisions. The scheduled preview event date(s) and time(s) for the auction are indicated under the "Auction Information" section of the HiBid webpage for the auction. The absence of a condition statement in the description for an item/lot, and/or the absence of photographs showing damage and/or other condition issues for an item/lot, does not imply that the item/lot is in perfect condition or is completely free from damage or other flaws, faults, defects, or imperfections, including (but not necessarily limited to) blemishes, wear and tear, and the effects of aging. Due to time constraints, the Auctioneer does not test the electronics in our auctions, or any of the other items/lots in our auctions, for functionality unless noted otherwise for a specific item in our catalogue (if applicable). Bidders may submit specific condition requests to the Auctioneer by phone (902-330-MOES [6637]) or email (support@moesauctions.com). Any condition statement given by the Auctioneer, as a courtesy to a bidder, is only an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact. The Auctioneer shall have no responsibility or liability for any error or omission regarding the condition of any items/lots sold in our auctions. (8) SHIPPING: The Auctioneer offers in-house shipping for most items/lots to any destination, provided the Buyer covers the associated costs. We ask Buyers who require shipping to please submit a Shipping Request Form through our website to start the process of getting your item(s) shipped to you. Please visit *** www.moesauctions.com/shipping *** for more information about our approach to shipping and to submit your online Shipping Request Form. Unless the Buyer requests otherwise on the Shipping Request Form, the Auctioneer will charge the Buyer's credit card on file for the cost of shipping, handling, and materials as soon as the applicable costs have been calculated and then will issue an electronic receipt to the Buyer by email. Please note that we will not process the shipment of any items/lots for which there is an unpaid balance owing, and that items/lots will only be released for shipment after the applicable charge for shipping, handling, and materials has been paid in full. The Auctioneer is not responsible for any loss or damage that may occur after an item/package leaves the Auction House for shipment by a third-party carrier (e.g., Canada Post, a courier, or a transport/shipping/moving company) and shall not be held liable in the event of any such loss or damage. (9) BUYER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO COLLECT THEIR ITEMS/LOTS (OR MAKE SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS) IN A TIMELY MANNER: Scheduled pick-up dates and times for Buyers to collect their items/lots are indicated under the "Auction Information" section of the HiBid webpage for the auction and are also stated on the receipts/invoices that the Auctioneer issues to Buyers. Space is quite limited at the Auction House as we prepare for upcoming auctions, so we ask Buyers to please make all reasonable efforts to collect your item(s) within the scheduled pick-up timeframe. Unless the Buyer has made alternative arrangements with the Auctioneer in advance of the auction closing, any item(s)/lot(s) not collected by the Buyer (or for which shipping arrangements have not been made by the Buyer through submission of a Shipping Request Form) within 7 calendar days after the auction closing date will incur a storage fee, of up to $15 per item/lot per day, charged to the Buyer's credit card on file. We will not release any item/lot to the Buyer for which there is an unpaid balance owing, including an unpaid balance for storage fees (if applicable). Unless the Buyer has made alternative arrangements with the Auctioneer in advance of the auction closing, any item(s)/lot(s) not collected by the Buyer (or for which shipping arrangements have not been made by the Buyer through submission of a Shipping Request Form) within 14 calendar days after the auction closing date will be considered abandoned and forfeited by the Buyer. Any such item(s)/lot(s) may be resold, donated, or otherwise disposed of by the Auctioneer, at the discretion of the Auctioneer, with no further notice to the Buyer and no refund or reimbursement to the Buyer. Additionally, any item(s)/lot(s) remaining at the Auction House beyond this 14-day timeframe may be removed and disposed of at the cost of the Buyer (e.g., transportation and landfill fees), which would be charged to the Buyer's credit card on file. In consideration of the above, please do NOT bid on any items in the auction if you do not fully intend to collect your items in a timely manner! (10) LIABILITY DISCLAIMER: Moe's Auctioneering Service Inc. and its employees shall not be held liable for any losses, damages, accidents, or injuries occurring on Auction House premises or on any other premises that are being used in relation to an off-site auction hosted by the Auctioneer (if applicable) during scheduled preview events, scheduled pick-up events, drop-in visits, or at any other time.

For further clarity, no claims can be made against the Auctioneer, or the Auctioneer's agents, employees, or principals, for any injuries sustained and/or for any property loss or damage resulting from any cause. The Bidder, and any companion(s) of the Bidder (if applicable), shall be held responsible for any damage that they may cause to property that is owned by the Auctioneer and/or any property that is in the Auctioneer's possession on behalf of a consignor/seller. (11) SYSTEM FAILURES OR MALFUNCTIONS AND USER ERROR: For internet-only auctions, the Auctioneer reserves the right to cancel and/or reopen the auction in the event of system failures or malfunctions. The Auctioneer cannot, and shall not, be held responsible or liable for any interruption in service or HiBid system errors, malfunctions, and/or omissions and does not guarantee continual, uninterrupted, or error-free service or use of the HiBid website.

All sales are final. (12) BIDDER RESPONSIBILITY ACCOUNT SECURITY AND FOR BIDS PLACED: The security of Bidder account information is the sole responsibility of the Bidder, and Bidders are responsible for any and all bids placed under their bidding number/username and password. If at any time you feel that your Bidder number/username, password, or other Bidder account information may have been compromised due to lack of security on your part, you must notify the Auctioneer immediately. (13) WINNING DETERMINATION: If you are new to this auction site, you might encounter a notice stating "MAY HAVE WON" for the items you bid on. However, at Moe's Auction House, there are no uncertainties. If you are the last and highest Bidder, you are the "WINNER" of the item.
