All items are sold as is and all sales are final.
The successful absentee bid is regarded as a binding contract. Aardvark
Auctions will describe items to the best of our ability. The absentee
buyer is not free to negate the sale by virtue of disagreement as
to the condition or description of the item.
Absentee
bids must be significant. Absentee bids less than $100
for any item will not be considered. Even though an absentee bid
may be in excess of $100, it may still be regarded as trivial for
the given item and may not be considered. Increments of less than
$25 will not be considered and we do not allow absentee bids to
reduce bidding increments.
Preference
is always given to bidders who attend the auction. Aardvark
Auctions reserves the right not to execute any absentee bid.
Costs
for mailing, insurance and handling will be assessed to the successful
absentee bidder. Payment for the amount of the purchases,
any mailing and insurance costs and a handling fee must be received
prior to delivery of the item to the absentee buyer. The handling
fee will be $10 for items with a purchase price of up to and including
$200. For items with a purchase price of more than $200, the handling
fee will be 5% of the total purchases, excluding any mailing and
insurance costs. When payment is made by check, the item(s) purchased
will not be delivered to the buyer until the check has been honored
by the buyer’s bank.
