►Line Item Auctions

Line Item Auctions are lists of equipment that require an individual bid for each piece of equipment in the lot. The Bidder is not required to bid on every piece of equipment in the lot. Bidder understands that it may not be the successful bidder for all line items or pieces for which a bid has been submitted. Further, submitted bids shall not be contingent upon being awarded any other piece of equipment and the Bidder agrees to accept and pay the winning bid amount for all individual line items and pieces awarded to the Bidder by PRC.

►Lot Auctions

Lot auctions will be comprised of multiple items per auction. One bid for all items is required any other bid will not be accepted.

Buyer's Premium

PRC Auctions may charge a buyer's premium on an item (in line item auctions) or on a lot (in lot auctions).  This premium will be added to the closing or "hammer" price of the item or auction.  For example, if you bid on and win an item for $100 with a 15% buyers premium, the total price of the item (minus any applicable taxes) would be $115 ($100 bid + $15 for 15% buyer's premium).

Item Retraction

PRC Auctions has the right to retract any item from any auction for any reason.  This can happen at any time, up to and including just before the item is shipped out of the facility.  Though it is our practice to commit to selling all items up for auction, we stand behind our products and may happen to see some things that we do not find acceptable, and thus will not sell those items.

Tax

Any excise, sales, use, transfer, value added or similar tax required to be made to any governmental entity in connection with the sale of the Equipment shall be paid one hundred percent (100%) by the buyer.

PRC's acceptance of the offer will be evidenced by the winning listing in the Completed Bids section of the Bid Status page. Equipment can not be shipped or picked up until payment has been received and cleared. PRC must receive Bidder's payment within five (5) days of the auction end date, by certified check, cashiers check, money order or wire transfer, for all awarded equipment per auction.

Shipping

All successful bidders auctions that end with less than 10 item(s) weighing a total of 70 pounds or less will be shipped via UPS and charged the cost of the UPS fee plus the below packaging fee for the appropriate size box. PRC will make a best effort to combine awarded items into same box to reduce shipping costs. Upon request PRC will arrange for packaging and/or shipping larger items at the Bidder's expense. Larger shipments will be billed to the Bidder at cost plus 25% for transportation and the below packaging fees will apply. Palletizing and crating services are available and will be quoted on a case-by-case basis. If Bidder elects to arrange for transportation such arrangements must be made within 10 days of the auction end date. Requests to extend the 10 days shipping window must be made in writing within 7 days of the auction end date and storage fees of $25 per week for a (4'wide x 4'deep x 5'high) pallet space will apply. Failure to comply with the shipping requirements will result in a null auction and PRC will have the option grant an extension or return any payment and post the equipment up for sale. The risk of loss of the equipment covered by this agreement shall pass to Bidder after PRC makes delivery of same to a common carrier arranged by PRC or the Bidder.
