Bidding and Purchase Conditions

A 5% Buyer’s Premium will be added to the high bid price to determine the final sale price.

Procedure:  Each of the Firearms will be offered individually via online only auction.  Go to www.wilsonauctions.com to bid online. There will be open bidding during the auction as determined by the Auctioneer. Conduct of the auction and increments of bidding are at the discretion of the auctioneer. All decisions of the Auctioneer are final. 

All items are sold AS IS-WHERE IS and WITH ALL FAULTS with no warranties, representation or guarantees expressed, implied or otherwise given.  All sales are final. Auction Company shall not be responsible for any errors or omissions in the description of any auction item unless it is a material and intentional misrepresentation of the item itself.  No deduction will be allowed on damaged items.

Bidders are encouraged to preview and inspect items before making a bid or commitment to buy. All questions regarding items should be asked prior to bidding. Bidders who are not able to preview understand and acknowledge that their online inspection of an item may not be as precise as a first-hand inspection. 

Bidder acknowledges that all used / not new items are available for inspection prior to the auction and Bidder shall solely rely on personal inspection to determine the item’s condition, age, genuineness, value or any other determinative factor. Bidder’s failure to inspect, or otherwise be fully informed as to the condition, age, genuineness, value or any other determinative factor of any item will not constitute grounds for any claim, adjustment, refund, termination of the contract for sale or refusal to close the sale. 

By bidding, you enter into a legally binding contract to purchase an item when you commit to buy an item, your offer for an item is accepted, or if you have the winning bid. The binding contract is between the Bidder and the Owner/Seller.

Indiana Sales Tax of 7% will be charged and collected on all purchases as required by appropriate state/local laws. 

Auction Company reserves the right to terminate the auction at any reasonable time, for any reason, to withdraw from sale any item or to sell at this auction items not listed.
