Sorry, No Shipping is Available.

• Bidding Registration: We manually approve all new bidders, which may result in a delay, possibly a few hours, between registration and your ability to place bids, especially for registrations made overnight or on weekends.

• Note about Yahoo / AOL Email Addresses: Please be aware that if you use a @yahoo.com or @AOL email address, you won't receive our outbid notifications and invoices. Yahoo doesn't even send these to your spam folder; they simply do not deliver them.  AOL usually sends into your Spam folder. Emails about upcoming auctions come from a different server and usually arrive as expected.

• Registration Confirmation: If you're registering with an address that's more than an hour or so drive away, please call us to confirm your ability to pick up items on schedule and you acknowledge that we do not ship.

    • The first 3 lots will start closing at 6 pm, with 3 lots closing each minute afterward.
    • Bids placed within 3 minutes of an item's end time will extend the countdown by an additional 3 minutes.

  • Items can be picked up on Friday, August 16th or on Saturday, August 17th, these are open pick ups (no appointment required) between 10 am and 2 pm.

  • Alternate pickups may be available if you are out of town but want to bid - please reach out before bidding for details and we’ll figure out a day after the weekend.

• Item Condition: Everything is sold "As-Is." We do not authenticate or guarantee any item. Typically, we lay items out on a table and take a few photos for reference. We do not extensively inspect for damage or missing parts. If an item is listed as "tested ok," it means it passed basic functionality tests but not full testing. Assume items have not been tested. If an item was advertised as "10k, 14k, 18k gold, or that it passed acid testing", then we will guarantee that item to be genuine gold with a relatively close Karat content. Any weight provided is approximate, but we will honor that it is fairly close. Please examine at checkout and bring up any concerns within 24 hours of pick up.

• Payment, Fees, and Taxes:

  • There is a 5% Buyer's Premium fee added to all bills paid with a credit card, this fee is WAIVED FOR CASH payments.
  • Checks are accepted only from known and frequent bidders with an established bidder history with us.
  • 6% Sales Tax will be collected where applicable. US Coins and Paper Notes are not taxed.
  • Any invoice over $1,000 must be paid in Cash (contact before bidding for exceptions for known or frequent bidders).

• Shipping: Please note that we do not offer shipping; items are for local pickup only by Registered Bidder or Spouse, call for any exceptions. We do not work with any 3rd party shippers.
