In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt on MEM’s part as to the validity of any bid, the MEM will have the final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, MEM’s sale record is conclusive. The high bidder assumes full responsibility for the item at issue. Payment.
