Once the invoice is signed, Metzger Property Services is not responsible for missing items or the condition of items. No refunds will be issued after the loadout for missing items. If a buyer has any issues during a loadout, they must be addressed with the cashier present before signing an invoice for action to be taken.

 All issues must be addressed with the cashier present before signing an invoice to be assessed.

Any other potential refunds will be sent to the accounting department for further review.

If Metzger Property Services is to transport your item(s), there will be a minimum $20 service fee added to your invoice. We will only transport your item(s) if feasible for us, this is not guaranteed, and you should place bids accordingly. The fee will be assessed by the loadout staff if items are to be removed from the auction site the day of the loadout.

Items not picked up within 5 days will be resold at new owners’ expense, even if paid for. Items not paid for after 5 days will be resold. Buyer is still responsible for paying outstanding invoices before being reinstated to bid.

Shipping is available on small lots. Buyer is responsible for notifying Metzger Property Services of any shipping requests. Metzger Property Services does not assume shipping, even for out of state buyers.
