CONDITIONS OF ITEMS SOLD & OUR ONLINE CATALOGUE: Our best efforts are made to represent all items accurately in descriptions and photographs; however, all items are ultimately sold on an 'as is, where is' basis, with all faults. We strongly encourage all bidders to personally verify the condition of each item during the scheduled preview times. No responsibility is assumed by Principal Liquidators Inc or the seller for any errors or omissions. Prices referenced are MSRP (Manufacturers Suggested Retail prices) and can be discounted significantly on the open market so do your own due diligence in researching values. Jewelry Appraisals are provided to us by the consignors and when provided are always insurance value appraisals which are usually much higher than retail values.

PREVIEW IS RECOMMENDED BEFORE BIDDING (when available).

CREDIT: By allowing you to bid we are extending you credit with the condition that you agree to pick up and pay for your items during the times posted using the payment terms specified. Failure to do so is a breach of the credit terms we have entered and can result in negative credit reporting and collections. By registering, you give Principal Liquidators Inc. permission to charge the credit card you gave when registering as per the payment terms stated within the auction. We experience real costs when a customer fails to pick up their items as per the agreement and accordingly will pursue the terms of the agreement. Bids are not revocable and legally binding agreements between the seller and the buyer.

MISSING LOT: Unfortunately with large online sales, especially sales where we don't have exclusive control of the items, items can go missing or be damaged from time to time. In the event that an item you had a successful bid on can't be located, your sole remedy is a refund of that item. No additional costs or expenses whether direct or indirect can be claimed for that item. No other items from your bill may be cancelled as a result of the missing or damaged item.

SITE OUTAGE: In the event of a outage that affects bidding at any time during the closing on a sale, 403 Auction at our discretion may extend the auction in it's entirety or in part (including lots that may have already closed) for a period of up to 24 hours. This decision will be made based on the severity of the outage. Previously closed items may be extended as there is no 100% way to determine that they closed prior to the outage and that all bidders who intended to bid were able to bid . This is an extremely rare occurrence but in the event that it happens we need to be fair to all bidders (including those who may not have been able to bid) as well as our consignors.

CLAIMS: No claims regarding goods purchased will be allowed. Bidders are reminded that all goods are sold on an 'as is, where is' basis, with all faults.

PERSONAL & PROPERTY RISKS: We will not be liable for damage or injury to individuals or their property.

ADDITIONS & DELETIONS: We reserve the right to remove and/or add lots and/or items to the sale at any point during the auction.

BUYERS: The BUYER expressly agrees to indemnify and save Principal Liquidators Inc., the Seller and their assigns harmless from and against all claims, losses, expenses, damage or liability, directly or indirectly caused by or resulting from an act, including the negligent acts or omissions of Principal Liquidators Inc., or anyone acting in his/her behalf in connection with or arising out of auction. All bidders/buyers must be of legal age.

RESERVE: Seldom are items sold with Reserve. If an item is being sold with a reserve, it will be clearly marked and identified. For items sold with a 'reserve', you will be required to pay a minimum amount in order to win the item.

AUCTION RECORDS: In the unlikely event of a dispute, you agree to accept as true the information that we have in our records.

SOFT CLOSE: Items close at regular intervals. To prevent a bidder from 'sniping', all bids made in the last minute of the auction will force an item to stay open for an additional 4 minutes. This will continue until all bidding has ceased.

STRATEGY: Bidding is similar to Ebay type auctions, we recommend that ALL BIDDERS put in their maximum bid when placing a bid online. This does not mean you will have to pay the amount you bid; you only pay one bid more than the next highest bid, and only up to your maximum bid. The software system will play out the bids as you would at a live auction and only uses the funds required to beat out the under-bidder at the prescribed bid increment.

CATALOGUE ERRORS & OMISSIONS: If a description does not match a picture in a lot, the description takes precedence. All items are sold on an 'as is, where is' basis, with all faults. In the event an item can't be located during pick up for any reason, the bidder agrees that their maximum recourse is a full refund of the item in question and that all other items bid on remain binding. Items approved for a refund are returned at the buyers expense. IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THEIR ITEMS BEFORE LEAVING THE PARKING LOT.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY You expressly understand and agree that Principal Liquidators Inc and it's Consignors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses (even if Sebae has been advised of the possibility of such damages), resulting from: (i) the use or the inability to use the service; (ii) the cost of procurement of substitute goods and services resulting from any goods, data, information or services purchased or obtained or messages received or transactions entered into through or from the service; (iii) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data; (iv) statements or conduct of any third party on the service; or (v) any other matter relating to the service.
