PLEASE CALL for questions (Chuck at 620-794-8824) BUYERS PREMIUM - 10% This is an “INTERNET ONLY AUCTION” 1) INSPECTION: All items are sold in "AS IS" condition. Inspection of items is highly encouraged. Bidders are required to make their own inspection of the items that they are bidding on. All descriptions of the items are believed to be correct and have been conscientiously described by a reliable source, however the auctioneer or seller does not guarantee said descriptions. Placing a bid on an item is the Bidder's acceptance of the condition of the item based on their inspection of the item whether inspection was done in person or online. The failure of Bidder to inspect the items does not constitute grounds for dispute. Please ask all questions prior to bidding. 2) “AS-IS”: All items are sold as is, we try to tell you what we know about them, if you have specific questions, please call before the auction closes, do not wait until afterwards. 3) SHIPPING is offered on select/limited lots, not all lots have shipping available, see each lot description to determine which lots qualify for shipping and what level of shipping is available. A) There are 4 levels of shipping: 1) $15 SHIPPING AVAILABLE – $15.00 per PACKAGE handling fee plus the cost of shipping and insurance. The increased handling fee is due to either the size or the fragility of the item being shipped and enables us to take greater care in the packaging. Credit card charges and claims will be processed through Shipping Saint. 2) $6 SHIPPING AVAILABLE - $6.00 per PACKAGE handling fee plus the cost of shipping. For shipping of small items, if staff determine that multiple lots can be shipped in one reasonably sized box, then there will just be a one-time $6 handling fee, however, staff have the final say in what qualifies for this and is done at the discretion of the auction company, call with questions, the only way to insure coins or precious metals is by USPS Registered Mail. They can be shipped with or without Registered Mail service, but will have no insurance without that service. Credit card charges and claims will be processed through Shipping Saint.

I) EXPLANATION OF STAGGERED CLOSING & SOFT CLOSE (this is for a INTERNET ONLY AUCTION) different types of auctions have different types of closings, for example, a WEBCAST AUCTION, has a closing just like a LIVE AUCTION, whoever the auctioneer has in as the high bidder, is who has the bid, even if there is a tie, it goes to the auctioneers discretion): a. Staggered Close: If you'll notice in the Title of our Auction, it states that bidding BEGINS to close at a certain time (for example 2:00pm CDT (Kansas Time). However, ALL items do not close together at that time. Items will close in the order listed on the site, (unless affected by the Soft Close as explained below) and typically close at the rate of 2 items per minute (every 30 seconds). Our Auction was set up this way intentionally so that bidders can have time to evaluate their overall progress in a sale as individual items close. You may also click on "Live Catalog" to view, in real time format, the lots that have current activity. b. Soft Close: Additionally, if an item receives a bid within the last 1 minute, then the close time will be extended 1 minute from the time the bid is placed. The time will continue to be extended for 1 minute with each newly placed bid and the item will not close until1 minute has elapsed with no additional bid activity. This does eliminate "snipers" from our Internet Auctions. Please be certain that we have taken every precaution to set the site up in a transparent manner that allows for the fairest environment for both buyers and sellers. c. Griffin Real Estate and Auction (Auction Company) is providing an Internet auction as a service to Bidder.
