Cash payment in full day of sale, in the form of U.S.

certified checks, or by wire transfer to Auctioneer's escrow account.
Personal or company checks must be accompanied by bank letter

A valid scannable driver's license or I.D. is required to register as
a bidder.

We often are asked how a bidder should bring cashier's checks when
the bidder does not know how
much he/she will be spending. If you bring cashier's checks made payable
to yourself in various increments, you can endorse them over to us and
we will refund any overpayment.
We
do not accept credit cards or debit cards. We no longer accept "convenience" checks drawn on credit
cards since our bank will not process them.
A 10% Buyer Fee will be added to all
purchases.

"with all faults known and unknown". No property is to be removed until paid for in full. Please
settle with the cashier within 15 minutes after the close of the auction. The Auctioneer
and Owner or their designee reserve

Owner's or lien holder's behalf during the course of the auction
sale. Sales tax will be charged where applicable. Leased items, if any, are sold subject
to Lessor's approval. More detailed terms may be listed in auction day
catalog and on the back of your bidder registration card.
