  1. Upon Buyers’ successful award of bid, Buyer shall be immediately responsible for 25% of their total purchased Items as a non-refundable deposit (the “Deposit”), in one of the Acceptable Payment Forms.  Buyers who have provided a credit card for the initial deposit hereby authorize Auctioneer to charge their credit card for the 25% Deposit.  Auctioneer’s election not to collect the 25% Deposit, pending full payment, does not waive Buyer’s obligation to such amount in the event of default, nor does it waive Auctioneer’s right to process Buyer’s credit card for the 25% Deposit at a later date. 
  2. Payments are accepted in the form of CASH, CASHIER’S CHECK, WIRE TRANSFER, CREDIT CARD (subject to a 4% processing fee) or BUSINESS CHECK accompanied by an APPROVED BANK LETTER OF GUARANTEE. All checks to be made payable to CA Global Partners. Payment must be made in US currency.
  3. FINAL PAYMENT must be made in one of the Acceptable Payment forms.  Unless alternative arrangements have been acknowledged and accepted within 48 hours of the conclusion of the Sale, Online Buyers hereby authorize Auctioneer to process the payment for the balance of their purchased Items using the credit card provided.  Charge of payment is subject to a 4% Merchant Process Fee. Buyers paying by credit card hereby waive their rights to chargeback.
  4. All property must be paid for and picked up in the time frames announced by Auctioneer at time of sale. If not, the merchandise will be deemed abandoned.

  5. If any applicable conditions are not complied with by Buyer, then, in addition to any other remedies available to Auctioneer, including and without limitation, the right to hold Buyer liable for the total purchase price, Auctioneer may, at its option, (a) cancel the sale, retaining all payments made by Buyer, and/or (b) resell the merchandise at public auction without reserve in which event Buyer will be liable for the cost of removing and reselling the abandoned merchandise, for any deficiency between Buyer’s original purchase price and subsequent resale price, Auctioneer’s commission, and all other expenses related to the disposal of the abandoned property.
