By registering for this auction you agree to the terms and conditions as stated below.
Conditions: Chandler's Auctions and Estate Sales strives to accurately describe the items being sold, but all property offered for sale is strictly AS-IS WHERE-IS with all faults. All sales are final and no refunds are given. The sales records and recordings shall be conclusive. It is the responsibility of the bidder to determine the exact condition and authenticity of each item. No statement in this catalogue or by representatives of C.A.E.S. shall be considered as a warranty or assumption of liability. Oral and written descriptions given by C.A.E.S. staff members in person or electronically are given as a courtesy to a client, are only an opinion, and should not be considered as a guarantee of age, composition, or authenticity. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear or imperfections. A good condition report considers age and use of item with appropriate wear. By bidding, you signify that you have either closely examined the items, have chosen not to examine them, or have hired an independent agent to examine the item(s) for you. Condition reports are available via the online catalog or by contacting The Gallery on First using 336-416-3803 or info@chandlersauction.com Auctioneer: Chandler Eshleman, NCAL#9849. The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw a lot for any reason he deems appropriate, including any lots that may have a reserve, or if there is a lack of bidding interest or lack of appropriate bids. C.A.E.S. shall always have the right to withdraw any item at any time for any reason and to default any sale in the event of an error or dispute.Terms: Sales are subject to the following terms and conditions of sale: Bidding is available by live in-house bidding, live internet bidding, absentee, and telephone. There is an 18% buyers premium (3% discount for bidders when paying cash or check and bidding live at auction on site), and live internet bidding is available on live platforms with a 23% buyers premium. Fees charged by Live! Platforms are the bidder's responsibility. Payment is due at the end of the auction by cash, certified funds, wire transfer, or approved check. Visa and MasterCard are available for purchases under $1000 and for bidders paying through Live Auctioneers payment service for all purchases. Invoices greater than $1000 require certified funds, check, or wire transfer. Live Auctioneer bidders are invoices through the Live Auctioneer platform and there is a fee for the LA payment system. Bidders paying Chandler's directly by check, wire, or certified funds deduct the LA fee. North Carolina sales tax is applicable. Based on location and type of auction additional taxes may be due or exempt. Online Bids: Live internet bidding is available during the auction. Current bids on the internet will be executed on your behalf during the auction by www.LiveAuctioneers.com. However, C.A.E.S. cannot be held liable for live internet bids that are not sent, received, or executed by the administrator. If you are bidding live, real-time on-line, please bid quickly because there is a time delay in receiving live bids. Multiple on-line platforms are active, so high bid on one site does not guarantee high bid on lot…bids are taken as presented through platforms.

every effort is made to execute and honor absentee and phone bids, C.A.E.S is not responsible for failure to execute a bid and is not liable for any losses incurred as a result of failure to execute absentee bids or failed phone reservations. In the case of identical bids, the first bid received will take precedence. Where appropriate, written bids will be rounded down to the nearest amount consistent with the auctioneers bidding increments. NOTE: It is the bidder’s responsibility to accurately record Lot Number and Bid Amount or Telephone number on any Absentee or On-Line bid form. C.A.E.S. assumes no responsibility or liability in the event a bidder fails to do so.

Packing and Loading: Packing and loading purchased items is the responsibility of the buyer. Chandler's does not provide boxes, packaging materials, or moving tools of any kind. Any loading assistance provided by any staff of C.A.E.S. is a courtesy, and bidder assumes all responsibility for care of items. Chandler's has no liability for any damage while providing loading assistance and registration for auction signature serves as signed waiver by bidder to release Chandler's from any responsibility should assistance be provided as courtesy.
