Deadlines and close of Internet bidding
Items will begin to close three items per minute at the scheduled date and start time of the online sale, and will sell to the winning Internet buyers at that time. The items will close in the order listed on the website. This online sale will feature our automatic extension system which grants a five minute extension to the end of the sale of any item receiving a bid during the last few minutes. The item will then close when five minutes have elapsed without any activity.

Buyer's Contract
Your Internet bids are a contract and you are responsible for honoring them.

Item descriptions
All items are sold as is - where is. In the case of obvious faults (chips, cracks, significant damage, etc) we do our best to list the fault within the description. We will provide descriptions based on our assessment of an item. However, we do not assume that our assessment of condition will be the same as your assessment. Most of the items we sell are antique, vintage, or used. You should expect signs of wear consistent with age and we will not list every flaw associated with each item as these are to be expected. We offer a public preview inspection for the sole purpose of allowing you the opportunity to see it in person before placing a bid. If you are unsure of an items condition make arrangements to attend the preview and please bid accordingly.
