2.     Bidding

 

a.     Gobid Auctions Inc. and independent associate auction companies explicitly disclaim any guarantee, warranty, or representation, whether expressed or implied, to bidders regarding any item. This includes aspects such as condition, merchantability, quality, rarity, appraisals, valuations, importance, and fitness for a particular purpose. 

b.     This Site User Agreement establishes a legally binding contract between the bidder and the auctioneer, which remains in effect until terminated by the auctioneer. The auctioneer reserves the right to terminate this agreement at any time, without prior notice, at their sole discretion. If a bidder is dissatisfied with any aspect of the auction sale, their only recourse is to immediately discontinue using the auction site. Additionally, the auctioneer may terminate a bidder’s registration, impose limits on certain features, or restrict access to parts or the entire site without penalty.

c.     The auctioneer reserves the right to set a minimum bid, accept or decline any bids, and withdraw the property before announcing the sale’s completion. Additionally, both the auctioneer and the property owners or employees may bid if desired.

d.     Bidders are prohibited from using any automated tools, such as robots, spiders, or other devices, to monitor or copy the site or its content without our prior written permission. Additionally, bidders must not interfere with the proper functioning of the site or any ongoing activities. Actions that place an unreasonably large load on the auctioneer’s infrastructure are also not allowed. Furthermore, bidders may not copy, alter, modify, create derivative works, or publicly display any content from the site without express written permission. The site is provided “as is,” without any warranties except those legally required and incapable of exclusion or modification.

e.     We recommend that everyone previews the auction they are bidding on. Please be mindful of the specified times, dates, and addresses.

f.      All lots are sold ‘as is, where is,’ without any guarantee of condition or authenticity. While we make every effort to describe items accurately, we highly recommend previewing them.

 

3.     System/Site Responsiveness

 

a.     Our ability to provide continuous, uninterrupted, or secure access to the services is not guaranteed, as various external factors can interfere with site operation. Your internet connection speed will impact how quickly pages with photographs load in your browser.
