Pick-up location and removal dates and times will be as posted on Auctioneer's website or otherwise announced by Auctioneer. Unless otherwise agreed, YOU are solely responsible for the disassembly, rigging, removal, shipping, and transportation of each Lot purchased by YOU. Disassembly and removal must be done in a professional and workmanlike manner, and YOU will indemnify and hold harmless both Auctioneer and Seller(s) against all damage caused by YOU or YOUR employees, agents, representatives, or independent contractors in connection with the disassembly or removal of any Lot(s). Any and all damage, including, without being limited to damage to land or buildings, caused by YOU or by YOUR employees, agents, representatives, or independent contractors, will be repaired by YOU, or at YOUR expense, to the satisfaction of the Auctioneer and Seller(s).
Failure to Pick-up
Failure to pick up your items or make shipping arrangements within three (3) business days of auction closing may forfeit your purchase. Small lots can be stored for one week in our Colorado Springs Warehouse. There is a transportation fee of $50.00. After 1 week, items are considered forfeited and become property of Augie & Bear. We do not transport, ship, or store furniture or oversize items.
Shipping and Handling
Shipping and Handling may be available on select items. If the option is available, it will be noted on the lot. We ship USPS whenever possible and use Shipping Saint.
There is a $7.00 packing fee added to each lot to be shipped as well as the shipping cost from USPS or packed box. Large or very breakable items are packed and shipped through UPS.
ALL SHIPPING COSTS are the RESPONSIBILITY of the BUYER and will be calculated after the close of the auction upon YOUR request.
We make every effort to pack and ship carefully, however, breakage and loss can occur, all purchases are final.
Items are typically packed and shipped within seven business days after in-person pick-up is completed.
PLEASE CONSIDER SHIPPING CAREFULLY Many times shipping is greater than the cost of your item.
Calculation of Sales Tax and disputes
Unless otherwise directed by the appropriate taxing authority, sales tax will be calculated, and collected, based on the Contract Price, which includes the Hammer Price plus the Buyer's Premium. If YOU believe that YOUR purchase is subject to a sales tax exemption that is not recognized by Auctioneer, or YOU believe that the Buyer's Premium portion of the Contract Price should not be subject to sales tax, or you otherwise dispute the sales tax, YOU should address YOUR dispute to the appropriate taxing authority and seek a refund from the appropriate taxing authority to the extent that the same may be available to YOU.
Sales Tax is calculated based on item pick-up location.
Sales Tax in Colorado varies based on city and county.
A valid Colorado Sales Tax license must be submitted to Augie & Bear and held on file for tax exemption.
Claims
After a Lot has been removed from the Auction Site by YOU, or on YOUR behalf, no claims or returns will be allowed, and no claim will be allowed for adjustments or rescission of any sales based on the failure of a Lot to correspond with any standard and/or expectation.
