5. TERMS OF SALE – Payment in full (including sales tax) is required by close of the auction, on auction date – nothing to be removed from premises before settlement. Any cost of collection, including attorney fees, shall be paid by the buyer. I grant NICHOLS AUCTIONEERS a security interest in this equipment until paid.
6. CONDITIONS OF SALE – AS IS – each lot is sold as is, where is – all sales final. NO guarantees or warranties are expressed or implied! No sale shall be adjusted or canceled by any reason of any discrepancies or inaccuracies in the description of any item or lot. Buyer warrants he has inspected all equipment and items for auction to their own satisfaction prior to bidding and buys accordingly. The auctioneer reserves the right to reject any and all bids.

9. RECORDS – The record of sale kept by the Auctioneer and Clerk will be taken as final in the event of any dispute.
10. PERSONAL AND PROPERTY RISK – Persons attending during exhibition, sale, or removal of goods assume all risks of damage of or loss to person or property and specifically release the auctioneer and seller from any liability. Nichols Auctioneers/Associates/Landowner or equipment owners/operators are not responsible for accidents, injury, or illness.
11. AGENCY – The Auctioneer is acting as agent only, and is not responsible for acts of its principals.
12. PLEASE NOTE – Your ACCEPTANCE of this buyer number means you have read and fully understand these terms and conditions and AGREE TO BE BOUND THEREBY.
13. BUYERS PREMIUM – There will be a 4% Buyer’s Premium charged if you choose to pay via credit or debit card. Additional buyer’s premiums may be charged depending on the sale. Announcements and signage at the beginning of the auction will state buyer’s premiums and terms. Ask questions BEFORE you bid. If a sale is offered to online bidders, there will be an additional buyer's premium if you are the winning bidder via the online platform. See online platform for details specific to each auction.

16. Phone bids are offered as a courtesy and a service and we will do the best we can to contact you when the item(s) you're interested in sells. However, sometimes things happen, and we aren't able to make the call and we are often at a location where there is not a reliable cell signal. If the item(s) is offered online, but the buyer chooses to phone/absentee bid, the same online buyer’s premium WILL apply. It is ALWAYS best to send an agent to bid on your behalf. All verbal terms and conditions as stated at the beginning of the auction apply and everything is sold as is, where is, with no guarantees.
Please keep your buyer's card in your possession at all times during the auction - it is your "credit card" for this auction and you assume all responsibility for it.
PLEASE ARRIVE AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH AUCTION!
Verbal terms and conditions as stated by the auctioneer supersede any other terms above, online, printed, or otherwise.
