Terms and Conditions
By registering for this auction, you agree to the following terms and conditions. This is a legally binding contract between you, referred to as the "Bidder" and AMP Auctions, LLC referred to as the "Auction House".
1. Item Condition: The bidder acknowledges all items are sold "AS-IS" and "WHERE IS". The Auction Houses makes no guarantee to the condition or usability of items up for auction. The Auction House will make its best effort to write accurate descriptions of each item up for auction. This is a service provided to the Bidder. The Bidder does not hold the Auction House responsible for bidding and winning items that are broke, defective, or damaged in any way. The Auction House strongly recommends that each Bidder attends the preview day(s) provided so they can inspect each item they wish to bid on.
2. Loading Items: The bidder agrees to bring help to load larger items. The Auction House DOES NOT provide help for loading large items into vehicles or trailers. The Auction Houses does not provide bags, paper, or other wrapping material when picking up lots the Bidder has won. The Bidder must remove the items safely. The Bidders agrees to pay all costs associated with damages that may happen when the bidder and/or their helpers are moving items. In the event the Bidder damages anything while removing the items, their credit card on file will be charged for all costs associated with fixing said damages. If a representative from the Auction House helps load or pack up an item, the Bidder does not hold the Auction House or their representative liable for any damage to the items or property of any kind.
3. Picking Up, After Pick Up Fees, and Storage Fees: The Bidder agrees to pick up the items on-time. The Bidder agrees to pick up all items listed on their invoice. If the Bidder, or representative/agent of the Bidder, cannot pick up the items during the pick-up date and times provided, PLEASE DO NOT BID on any items. If your items are not picked up and paid for by the time the auctions scheduled pick up has concluded, there will be a Storage Fee added to the Bidders invoice. The minimum fee for this is $10. This fee covers our time to move and store your items for up to 5 business days. If you choose not to pick up your items after 5 business days, they will be considered abandoned with no refunds given. In this case, there will be a minimum charge of $5 per lot to dispose of or to relist those items. Any additional storage, if approved by Auction House, will be assessed at a rate of $5 per day, per lot. These charges will automatically be charged to the card on file at the end of each month. If the card on file is declined, and the Bidder does not take action by picking up their items and paying their invoice in full, AMP Auctions, LLC will take legal action at some point in the future and/or send the bill to collections. Once in collections, you waive your right to the items won at auction, and your bill must be handled through the collection department.
4. Payment: You agree to pay for your entire invoice in full. After the auction has been completed, the Auction House will charge the card on file for the items. If you are paying CASH, please put the words CASH in notes to the auctioneer's section of the registration. For invoices more than $1,500, the bidder will pay via bank wire transfer or cash. We may charge the card on file for a deposit on any invoice if we choose. Failure to pay for your entire invoice will result in the auction house taking legal action against the full invoice amount plus any other storage and/or removal fees and/or Auction House legal fees associated with securing payment.
5. Buyer's Premium and Sales Tax: The Bidder understands that each item up for auction will have a buyer's premium of 16% added to the price of each item. When placing a bid please take the buyer's premium into account and bid accordingly. This means that if an item is sold at $100, the buyer's premium would $16, and your total would be $116 (not including Michigan 6% sales tax).
6. Sales Tax: Due to Michigan law, there will be sales tax of 6% added to every lot won. If you have a sale tax license, we must receive the license before the auction has closed. Email it to AMPAuctionsLLCMI@gmail.com. We cannot refund sales tax after we have taken payment, per Michigan State law.
7. Text Messaging Services: The Auction House may send reminder texts to bidders about auction information to the phone number used at registration. You are responsible for all carrier and data charges.
8. Inspection/Preview: All Items are sold AS-IS. Please email AMPAuctionsLLCMI@gmail.com to schedule a preview time. Email must be received at least 24 hours prior to requested preview. NO preview on day of closing.
We strongly recommend every person bidding on items previews the items in person before bidding.
Please note, the Auction House will not give refunds or returns for Bidders who bid and win items and are unhappy with the condition of those items.
9. Info Changes: The Bidder agrees to let the Auction House know of any changes with contact or credit card information after registration and prior to the start of auction closings.
10. Bidding Errors and Software Malfunctions: In the event of a bidding error, the Bidder must contact the Auction House immediately. Bidding errors cannot be fixed after the bidding has closed on those items. If a bidding error is made on the last day of the auction, the Auction House may not be able to fix those issues as it may not be seen before the auction closes. In the event the bidding error cannot be fixed on the last day of the auction, the Bidder will be responsible to pay the invoice amount. The Auction House will not assume any bid is an error. In the event there is a malfunction within the software and/or bidding the Auction House is using, the Bidder will not hold the Auction House accountable.
11. Staggered Closing and Soft Closing: The Auction House uses staggered closing which means that lots close approximately every 30 seconds giving everyone a chance to view each item closing in real time. The Auction House also uses soft closing, which means that an auction item ends only after a specific time without any additional bids. This prevents sniping and gives every bidder a fair chance at winning that item.
12. Bidder Notification: If the Bidder has won items at the auction, they will be notified by the Auction House via email to include the items won and amount owed. This is the only contact the Bidder will receive from the Auction House. Please be sure to check your email after the auction has closed. In the event the Bidder won an item at the auction and does not receive an email notification, they should contact the Auction House at 248-217-4242. Please check spam/junk folder prior to contacting Auction House.
13. Third Party Liability: The Bidder will not hold the Auction House liable for any action done by a third party. This includes, but not limited to, actions done by fellow Bidders, Auction House, clients, friends and family of the clients of the Auction House, or any person who commits a crime (i.e. break ins, theft, or vandalizing auction lots) before, during, or after the auction has finished.
14. Auction House Liability: The bidders agree to not hold the Auction House responsible for any damages or injury that may happen when attending the inspection/preview day or auction pick up days. The Auction House asks the Bidder to watch their step inside the auction areas, as there may be some elevation changes or steps. The Bidder also will not hold the auction house liable for any damages or injury that result from the items won at auction.
15. Legal Recourse: In the event an issue arises between the Bidder and Auction House, the Bidder must take all disputes to mediation rather than litigation to resolve their dispute. The Bidder agrees to choose a venue located within Macomb County, Michigan. The Bidder agrees that their dispute cannot be combined with any other person or party. The bidder agrees to pay for all mediation costs regardless of the outcome. The Auction House reserves the right to use all legal means, including but not limited to, small claims court, to receive monetary damages resulting from actions of the Bidder.
16. Client Rights: The clients (consignors) of the Auction House have the right to bid on and win any items they have put to auction. The Clients agree to pay for all items and buyers premiums associated with any lots they have won.
17. Terms and Conditions Changes: These Terms and Conditions can be changed at any time without notice. Please read these terms and conditions each time you register for one of our auctions.
