TERMS & CONDITIONS

PLEASE READ AND REVIEW THE TERMS THOROUGHLY PRIOR TO BIDDING.
IF YOU HAVE NOT READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT BID. BY BIDDING ON THIS AUCTION, BUYER AGREES TO ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH AND ENTERS INTO A CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE THE ITEMS(S) UNDER THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

This auction is using an Extended Bidding (“Soft Close”) format. Items will not automatically close at the posted closing time if active bidding is still taking place.

If a bid is placed during the final extension period, the bidding time will automatically extend to allow all bidders additional time to place bids. Each additional bid placed during an extension period will continue to extend the bidding time until no further bids are received.

The posted closing time is the earliest possible closing time and is not a guaranteed ending time.

Extended Bidding Time Increments:

• During the first 30 minutes of extended bidding, all bid extensions will be 5 minutes.
• During the second 30 minutes of extended bidding, all bid extensions will be 3 minutes.
• During the third 30 minutes of extended bidding, all bid extensions will be 2 minutes.
• After the first 90 minutes of extended bidding, all bid extensions will be reduced to 1 minute and will continue in 1-minute increments until all bidding has ended.

Example:

If an item or tract is scheduled to close at 6:00 PM and a bid is placed at 5:59 PM, the bidding time will automatically extend. If another bid is placed during that extension period, the bidding time will extend again. This process continues until no additional bids are received.

This format helps provide all bidders a fair opportunity to participate and prevents last-second bidding practices commonly referred to as “sniping.”
