We will notify winning bidders by telephone within four (4) hours of the conclusion of the auction. Successful on-line bidders will be notified by the Company day-of-sale by telephone and respective credit cards charged according to the gavel price and other related charges. Accounts that are not satisfied within thirty (30) days of the sale date will be subject to a 2% monthly finance charge. Each returned check is subject to a $50.00 service charge. Buyers are liable for all attorneys’ fees associated with the collection of any balances due.

ON-LINE PAYMENT STRUCTURE: Successful on-line winning bidders’ totals will include the winning bid price with buyer’s premium, on-line transaction fee of three (3) percent, sales tax and shipping charges as applicable. Pennsylvania bidders will be charged six (6) percent Pennsylvania Sales Tax in addition to these other fees. Out-of-state bidders will not be charged Sales Tax.
