Follow the link to view auction and bid; this is an online auction with an in-person pickup day.
*ESTATE SALE items are generally in used condition; if they are new, we try to indicate that. All estate sale items are sold "AS IS", and all sales are final. Consider pictures to be a major part of the description and look them over carefully. BE SURE to examine all pictures and read descriptions to understand what it is you are bidding on. All electronics or items with moving parts are untested unless indicated in the description. We do our best to take good photos and to provide you with enough information to make a decision of whether to bid or not. Examine your purchase before leaving the pickup site and bring up any issues at that time. Once you sign that invoice, you are taking possession and agree to what you have purchased and picked up. Text us (preferred method of communication) at 303-868-7515 if you need information beyond what is provided. Your bid is entirely your decision and is a commitment to follow through with a purchase.

* We cannot move or store your items. When you make a purchase, you agree to pick up what you have purchased during the offered times. Items left behind will be considered abandoned without refund, your credit card may be charged up to $150 for third party removal, and your bidding privileges may be canceled. We really do try to work with people; if there is an emergency, please communicate with us, and we will do what we can to accommodate you. Please be kind and respectful to other customers, our clients' homes, and our staff. If there are concerns or issues, take those up privately with the auction manager. Folks who are not kind or respectful will lose their bidding privileges. This is a great business to be in, filled with 99% lovely, generous-spirited people. Be like those folks.

* Some items are available for shipping; if you are not sure, ask before bidding--do not assume. While we do not ship, we are happy to take some items to Ace Pack and Ship at 2049 Wadsworth for you for a $5 handling fee. Heavy, large or very fragile items are not available for shipping. No shipping within Colorado. You will need to work out the logistics of payment with Ace for shipping and packing. After the auction is over, text us with your name and invoice number and indicate that you need shipping. If an item was not available for shipping and you purchased it anyway, there are no refunds if you did not check to see if it was possible to be shipped. It may take 1-2 weeks after an auction closes for deliveries to Ace, but it is often sooner.

*We cannot help you move or carry your purchases. You are responsible for items you purchased which may mean bringing tools, manpower, tiedowns, dollies, manpower, packing material, bags, boxes, manpower, etc., and that means doing your due diligence about the weight, size, or complexity of the item and the size of your vehicle. We provide measurements of furniture; we are not experts on whether something will fit in your vehicle or whether something is too heavy or big for you. Strength and ability to move items is entirely subjective information. Manpower is key; we work in a variety of homes and communities, and some of them have stairs, steep driveways, limited parking, or other challenges. Coming prepared to disassemble, pack, and carry your purchases means navigating those features, and if you need more specific information, Google Earth the address or ask us. We also put specific details about each location in the email you receive when the auction ends, so reading that email is very important. If we have available manpower, it is $100 per hour in 15 minute increments. We recommend Cowboy Moving if you do not have your own manpower. Heritage Estate Sales and Liquidation, LLC and clients are not liable for any accidents or injuries or accidents before, during, or after pickup or that occurred in conjunction with your pickup.

* You are important to us; you are our customers. We want your business and work hard to ensure that your experience is a pleasant one, which is why we provide a lot of information and strive to make our auctions thorough and our pickup days as organized as possible. You can do your part by reading the communications and coming prepared.

* This business is based entirely on referrals; we strive for five-star reviews and appreciate tips for how we can be even better. Please give us the chance to earn your five-star review before leaving feedback.
