Terms & Conditions

GENERAL:

All items are sold AS IS, WHERE IS with no warranties or guarantees.

Metzger Property Services accepts preview requests for further inspection of item(s) prior to bidding. If you are inspecting a vehicle or motorized item, Metzger Property Services only allows the item to be started to hear it run or operate -- it is NOT allowed to be driven.

All auctions are a soft close, unless otherwise listed, meaning that the auction does not end until all bids are completed. Lots close out 1 at a time. There is a countdown on the lots to let you know how much time remains on each lot. If any bidding happens in the last 2 minutes of the lot ending, the time does extend another 2 minutes. It is highly recommended that you are in the auction watching the lots close, not in your watchlist.

Metzger Property Services reserves the right to reopen an auction or bid if there are technical difficulties, to allow for fair bidding. Previous winning bids may no longer be valid in this situation.

Metzger Property Services reserves the right to use stock images for products. Products may not come assembled as shown in stock image. Buyers are responsible for reviewing all photos listed and/or scheduling a preview.
