3) ALL ITEMS SELL WITH A RESERVE - All items in the online auction that sell with reserve and are subject to Brian Burke Auctions and/Sellers acceptance and/or rejection of the high bid.
4) BIDDING - Do not bid unless you agree to all of the terms and conditions posted herein. By bidding you are acknowledging agreement with all of the terms and conditions included herein and elsewhere on our website. The highest Bidder shall be the Buyer and no Bidder shall retract their bid. A Bidder is deemed to have accepted an item or lot when they make their bid. A successful bid at auction constitutes a legally binding contract of sale. All sales are final. The Auctioneers reserves the right to bid on behalf of the Seller(s). The Auctioneer reserve the right to reject any and all bids on items and lots not being sold at absolute auction. The acceptable bidding increments are established and controlled by the Auctioneer.
5) GOOD CHOICE – Brian Burke Auctions wants everyone to have a good buying experience. However, when a bidder bids on a wrong item or decides an item is not suited for their intended use, our Sellers/Consigners will not assume the cost of the bidder’s mistake. Bidders agree that their failure to inspect or otherwise become fully informed about the items offered for sale at auction will not be grounds for a refusal to pay amounts due, nor for any claim against the Auctioneer. Bidders acknowledge and agree that they may not withdraw or retract any bid made that has been acknowledged by Auctioneer or that has been submitted online through their account.
6) ABSENTEE BIDS & PROCEDURE - All absentee bids are handled by the online auction system of bidding. The Bidder understands that all terms and conditions posted herein including addendums and attachments, apply to absentee bids as well. Because of the random nature of the auction bidding process, it is possible for the high bid to be by another Bidder, at the same amount that was left by the Absentee Bidder, therefore, it is agreed by the Absentee Bidder that neither the Sellers, Auctioneers, licensees, employees nor representatives, including the online auction service provider assume any liability or responsibility of any kind whatsoever for failure to execute bids for or on behalf of the Absentee Bidder for any reason whatsoever.
7) BUYERS PREMIUM - A Buyers Premium applies on all purchases unless otherwise stated. A Buyers Premium will be added to all purchases. A Buyers Premium is a predetermined percentage added to the high bid price to achieve the contract sales price. The use of a Buyers Premium will not in any manner whatsoever constitute an agency relationship between the Auctioneers (their licensees, employees or agents), and the Bidder. The Auctioneers, licensees, employees and agents are agents for the Seller Only. The Buyers Premium may vary depending on the auction. Brian Burke Auctions may change the Buyers Premium at any time to meet the needs of the Seller and/or to abide by the auction listing agreement. You may call our office to find out the exact amount of the Buyers Premium for any auction.
8) PURCHASE PRICE CALCULATION - Note that the purchase price is the sum of the bid price, the Buyers Premium, any Buyers Fee, and the sales tax if applicable. All payments must be in US dollars. Brian Burke Auctions reserves the right to charge the total amount or any remaining balance of your purchase price on your credit card if the balance is not otherwise paid. We do not accept partial payments. Invoices must be paid in full prior to pick up.
9) SALES TAX (if applicable) - All applicable sales tax, according to the governing tax laws in the state where the auction is being held, will be added to the purchase price on all taxable items or lots unless the Bidder uploads a properly completed tax exempt form to their bidding profile prior to the auction. All Buyers will be subject to the sales tax unless they provide the necessary documentation we require for exemption status (out-of-state Buyers and out-of-country Buyers must pay sales tax on all items including titled items), unless stated otherwise in the auction terms.
10) PHOTOGRAPHS AND DESCRIPTIONS – Online auctions contain item descriptions and photographs to aid Bidders in the bidding process and will make every effort to ensure the descriptions and photographs which are posted accurately represent the items being offered for sale. In some photographs, multiple items may appear to be joined as a single unit, however, bidders should not assume a lot consists of more than one item simply because various items appear connected or are featured in the same photograph. It is also understood that on occasion, the wrong photograph may be displayed for a given item. No item or lot shall be sold or deemed to be sold by description or photo alone. Preview of lots are suggested.
11) ADDITIONS OR WITHDRAWALS - The Auctioneers reserve the right before, or during the auction, to (a) withdraw from the auction any of the items or lots listed, (b) to sell at this auction items or lots not previously listed (c) to group and regroup items and lots, or separate items and lots, or parts of a lot as deemed necessary, (c) to make changes to the auction’s closing, inspection or removal times (d) to add minimum bids or reserve prices, (e) to sell all of the items and lots listed in bulk or to sell any and all items or lots prior to the auction.

The Auctioneer and Seller expressly and specifically disclaim, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. Removal is at the Buyer's sole obligation, risk, and expense. No sale will be invalidated by reason of any defect or inaccuracy in any of the items or lots by reason of their being incorrectly described orally or written, invoiced, or cataloged, and no liability will be borne by the Auctioneers, licensees, employees and agents in respect to any such faults or errors.

The Buyers will accept the items or lots despite any defects or conditions, known or unknown, visible, or not visible, and therefore Buyers do by these presents remise, release, acquit, quit claim and forever discharge the Sellers, Auctioneers, licensees, employees and agents from any and all claims now and in the future. The Bidders should avail themselves the opportunity to inspect all items and lots. All Bidders are urged to physically inspect the item(s) during the inspection period. All sales are final.

13) VIEWING - The Bidders are afforded a time specific stated opportunity (or viewing by appointment) to inspect the items and lots prior to final close of the online bidding for the auction unless stated otherwise.

The Auctioneer strongly encourages Bidders to attend the scheduled inspection when held. If an inspection is scheduled and Bidders choose not to attend the scheduled inspection or are in doubt about the condition, completeness, or suitability of a given item, they should please bid accordingly.

This feature will leave the bidding open for any item that has received a bid within the last minute from the last recorded bid time, even if the ending time has been reached. This feature has been added to eliminate last second bidding and to make the online bidding process fairer and resemble a 'live' auction. Keep in mind that seconds are not recorded with bid entries.
