General Auction Terms:
This is an Online Only Auction, by registering to bid on the internet you acknowledge that you have read and understand the terms and conditions of this auction and that you expressly agree to abide by all terms and conditions contained herein.
All auction items sell “as is, where is” with no guarantees or warranties either expressed or implied. Descriptions of the auction items are believed to be correct and accurate and are provided in good faith but are matters of opinion and not guaranteed by the seller nor The Weeks Group. Bidders must rely solely on their own judgment as to condition, grade, authenticity and accuracy of descriptions prior to placing a bid. By placing a bid, purchasers acknowledge and agree to all terms of the auction and agree not to retract their bid. Bidders that cannot satisfy the terms of the auction should not bid. All auction purchases are considered to have been verified by the purchaser as to condition, grade and authenticity prior to the purchaser placing their winning bid.
Buyer’s Premium:
For purchasers paying by credit card a 18% Buyer’s Premium will be added to your bid price to determine the final sales price of the items purchased. We accept Visa, MasterCard and Discover. Purchase agrees not to engage in chargebacks, once Purchase has submitted payment via credit card.
For purchasers paying by cash, check, cashier’s check or wire transfer a 15% Buyer’s Premium will be added to your bid price to determine the final sales price of the items purchased.
A copy of the Check Issuer's Driver's License must accompany personal or business checks. In the event that a check is returned for insufficient funds, the Check Issuer will have 24 hours to provide The Weeks Group with immediately available funds. Failure to perform will result in The Weeks Group following procedures pursuant to OCGA 16-9-20.
Sales tax of __% will also be charged on the final sale price. Dealers buying for resale may be exempt from paying sales tax by providing The Weeks Group with your sales tax number and executing a sales tax exemption form.
Buyer’s Premium Example:
Bid Price: $100.00
15% Buyer’s Premium $ 15.00
Total Purchase Price $115.00
The total purchase price is subject to 8% sales tax!
Bidder Default:
In the event a winning bidder fails to submit payment within 24 hours of the close of the auction, the winning bidder shall be liable in damages for 10% of the Purchase Price. This is a fair pre-estimate of the damages incurred by the winning bidder’s failure to consummate the transaction, the loss of revenue from marketing the auction, and the potential damages incurred in the future from the chilling effect such breach may have upon future auction customers and bidders. The actual damages incurred by The Weeks Group for a winning bidder’s failure to submit a signed Contract for Sale and/or earnest money deposit as set forth herein is difficult, if not impossible, to determine for the reasons set forth above, but the sum of the damages set forth herein is a reasonable pre-estimate of the probable loss, and by submitting any bid, the bidder is expressly agreeing to these terms as set forth herein. Further, a winning bidder that breaches the terms as this agreement expressly authorizes The Weeks Group to charge the defaulting bidder’s credit card provided at registration for the full amount of the damages set forth herein, and if such charge is not permitted for any reason, the bidder shall immediately pay the agreed upon damage price to The Weeks Group in the form of certified funds payable to “The Weeks Group.” Failure to pay these damages shall entitle The Weeks Group to collect interest at the highest legally allowable rate from the date of the breach, as well as all costs incurred with collection, including reasonable attorney’s fees.
