NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTIES OF AUCTION CATALOG: Neither the Auctioneers nor its Consignors make any representation, guarantee or warranty, expressed or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of the Auction Catalog presented to the Bidder. Neither the Auctioneer nor its Consignors shall be liable to the Bidder as relating to or resulting from the Bidder's use of any Auction Catalog information or for any errors therein or omissions therefrom, or for any oral statement concerning any item whatsoever.

No adjustments or credits will be made after the Lot is removed from the premise.

If the auction includes one or more guaranteed or warranted Lots, the terms of any such guarantees or warranties will appear in this section under identical headings to those used within the respective Lot description.
NO GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY is provided for any auctioned item that does not include an explicit statement of guarantee or warranty in its respective Lot description. There shall be no guarantees or warranties, expressed or implied, of any nature whatsoever for any Lot that does not explicitly include the word “guarantee” or “warranty” within its specific description.
(8) SAFETY RISK:
PREMISE RISK: Bidder acknowledges that an on-site auction premise is potentially an unsafe environment if the Bidder isn’t informed, cautious and requests assistance. Bidder must be aware of a variety of hazards, including without limitation: Moving machinery (e.g. forklift) and vehicles (loading and unloading); Heavy objects that must be respected for their weights and potential movement; Lots containing a variety of commercial substances and materials that are potentially pressurized, flammable, or corrosive and/or noxious if so inappropriately exposed; Electrical circuits requiring specialized expertise (e.g. generators, battery and line powered equipment); Live Power Tools (including those with batteries); Trip hazards, Slip Hazards, Cut hazards (sharp objects and moving parts on machinery).
The above list is not complete but serves to warn Bidder of safety risks at the premise. Bidder shall act responsibly and with acute awareness of his/her surroundings at all times.

BIDDER ACCEPTANCE OF SAFETY LIABILITY: Every person at the auction premise shall be there at his/her own risk with notice of the condition of premises and the activities thereon and Bidder shall so advise his agents and employees. Bidder has sole responsibility to verify his/her item is safe to use, make any corrections or upgrades required, and follow appropriate safety recommendations. No person shall have any claim against Auctioneers, their agents, employees, or principles for any injuries sustained, nor for damages to or loss of property which may occur from any cause whatsoever.

WHERE-IS, AS-IS: All Lots are sold in their condition and placement at auction closure. Auctioneers make no representation, guarantee or warrantee that any Lot will:
(a) be safe to load, transport or use;
(b) be suitable for any particular function;
(c) conform to any regulatory standard or requirement

(a) the removal, disassembly/assembly, loading, transport, ownership, use, transfer or re-sale of any Lot purchased on the Bidder’s account at this auction;
(b) the participation or presence of Bidder, his agents or employees, in the on-line auction sale and/or at the on-site auction premise at any time for any reason
(10) RESPONSIBILITY FOR PURCHASES:
AUCTIONEERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PURCHASES during the seven (7) day removal period until payment is made and purchases are located at the premise for the Purchaser to begin removing. Responsibility and risk for purchases transitions to Purchaser after Auctioneers locates purchases, whether or not Purchaser immediately completes removing and/or loading his/her purchases (Where-Is, As-Is). Auctioneers are not responsible for loss or damage incurred thereto from removal, loading or transport of the Purchases.
NON-FULFILLMENT OF PURCHASES may occur infrequently due to theft, loss or damage. In the event of non-delivery for any reason whatsoever, Auctioneers’ sole obligation and liability to the Purchaser is to return all monies deposited for any non-delivered Lot. Auctioneers’ failure to deliver any portion of purchases does not relieve Purchaser of obligations to make full payment on any other purchases.

Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or related to this contract or the matters contemplated hereunder shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Washington in each case located in the city of Olympia and County of Thurston. Bidder irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.
(12) SEVERABILITY: If any term or provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.
(13) NO WAIVERS by Auctioneers of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Auctioneers. No waiver by Auctioneers shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver.
(14) NO FAILURE TO EXERCISE, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
(15) AUCTION & BIDDER-SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: These are the complete Agreement terms and conditions for the specific auction identified above. Auctioneers reserve the right to modify this Agreement for future Auctions. Auctioneers reserve the right to amend specific terms and conditions for individual Purchaser circumstances, but any such amendment shall be executed in writing and signed by the respective Purchaser and Auctioneers. Auctioneers may revoke the bidding privileges of any Bidder registrant at any time.
(16) MISCELLANEOUS:

ITEM RISK: No Safety Checks have been performed by Auctioneers on any of the items to be auctioned, nor are Auctioneers familiar with Consignor’s safety history with any item.
BIDDER ACCEPTANCE OF SAFETY LIABILITY: Every person at the auction premise shall be there at his/her own risk with notice of the condition of premises and the activities thereon and Bidder shall so advise his agents and employees. Bidder has sole responsibility to verify his/her item is safe to use, make any corrections or upgrades required, and follow appropriate safety recommendations. No person shall have any claim against Auctioneers, their agents, employees, or principles for any injuries sustained, nor for damages to or loss of property which may occur from any cause whatsoever.
(9) BIDDER / PURCHASER ACCEPTANCE OF LIABILITY:
WHERE-IS, AS-IS: All Lots are sold in their condition and placement at auction closure. Auctioneers make no representation, guarantee or warrantee that any Lot will:
(a) be safe to load, transport or use;
(b) be suitable for any particular function;
(c) conform to any regulatory standard or requirement
Bidder acknowledges he/she has access to personally examine and research his/her Lots and agrees to accept responsibility for any risk for any potential defect (a-c above) and not hold Auctioneers and its Consignors liable. Bidder further agrees to bear the entire expense of correcting and upgrading any and all defects that presently exists in his/her purchases.
INDEMNIFICATION: Bidder, whether acting as principal, agent, officer or director of a company or otherwise, in any capacity whatsoever, and the company that he/she represents, both jointly and severally agree to indemnify and hold Auctioneers and its Consignors harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of actions, legal suit or proceeding, liabilities, damages, expenses and losses of any nature whatsoever arising out of or relating to:
(a) the removal, disassembly/assembly, loading, transport, ownership, use, transfer or re-sale of any Lot purchased on the Bidder’s account at this auction;
(b) the participation or presence of Bidder, his agents or employees, in the on-line auction sale and/or at the on-site auction premise at any time for any reason
(10) RESPONSIBILITY FOR PURCHASES:
AUCTIONEERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PURCHASES during the seven (7) day removal period until payment is made and purchases are located at the premise for the Purchaser to begin removing. Responsibility and risk for purchases transitions to Purchaser after Auctioneers locates purchases, whether or not Purchaser immediately completes removing and/or loading his/her purchases (Where-Is, As-Is). Auctioneers are not responsible for loss or damage incurred thereto from removal, loading or transport of the Purchases.
NON-FULFILLMENT OF PURCHASES may occur infrequently due to theft, loss or damage. In the event of non-delivery for any reason whatsoever, Auctioneers’ sole obligation and liability to the Purchaser is to return all monies deposited for any non-delivered Lot. Auctioneers’ failure to deliver any portion of purchases does not relieve Purchaser of obligations to make full payment on any other purchases.
