If you require shipping on an auction lot(s) that is indicated as not shippable, please send an email before bidding to RockvilleAuction@CaringTransitions.com to inquire and discuss shipping options.
12. Shipping for FRAGILE LOTS will be packaged and shipped via a local UPS store. UPS charges for packaging and supplies tend to be on the more expensive side, so please plan accordingly when determining your bids. CT will make an effort to identify this situation in the description of the individual auction lot(s).
13. All auction lots must be fully paid for before they are picked up or shipped. Auction lot(s) to be shipped cannot be removed from the property without payment. Therefore, if payment for the auction lot(s) is not received within 16 hours of specific auction sale closing time, the auction lot(s) will be forfeited and bidding privileges may be revoked. Additionally, if payment for the shipping and handling invoice is not received after 3 days of receiving the separate invoice, the auction lot(s) will be forfeited and bidding privileges may be revoked. Disposal of auction lot(s) is performed at the discretion of CT and no refund will be made.

All winning auction lot(s) not picked up during the scheduled pickup time will be considered abandoned and will be donated or resold. No refunds will be made. Alternate pickup days and times must be requested by the winning bidder and if approved by CT, can be available for a fee starting at $35.
16. Buyer's Premium % for each auction lot will be stated within the auction lot and will be added to the final bid amount when invoiced.
17. MD State Sales Tax % will be added to the final bid amount when invoiced.
18. CT has made every effort to describe auction lot(s) as accurately as possible. Expect normal signs of wear associated with antiques, vintage, and used items in the auction lot(s). CT does not list every flaw. All items in auction lot(s) are sold AS IS, and WHERE IS. No refunds or returns. CT does not guarantee the working order of any clock, watch, electronic or mechanical device. Dimensions given may be approximate. Please rely on the auction lot(s) photographs when deciding to bid.
19. Listings times have a soft close. Extra time may be added to ending times to allow bidders more time to win. This will give you time to receive an outbid notification and place a higher bid and mimics what happens in a live auction where the auctioneer asks for “any last bids” before making the sale.
