Your bid is a legally binding contract. By bidding via Artfact/Invaluable Live/eBay you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of sale. Upon the fall of the auctioneer's hammer, title will pass to the highest bidder, and the property is thereafter at the purchaser's sole risk and responsibility.

YOU MUST CONTACT US DIRECTLY FOR PAYMENT--the credit card submitted for registration is for security purposes only and IS NOT SHARED WITH US.

Payments by check must be either a bank check or a pre-approved personal check or money order. All checks must be drawn from a US bank in US funds. All bank checks must include complete current personal information (name, address, phone number) as well as the phone number of the bank the check is drawn on. Bakker Auctions reserves the right to hold merchandise until payment clears. The purchasers agrees to pay James R. Bakker Antiques, Inc. a handling charge of $25.00 for any check dishonored by the drawee. At Bakker Auctions option, payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until Bakker Auctions has collected funds represented by checks, or in the case of bank or cashier's checks, their authenticity has been confirmed.

On title passing to the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer, and subject to all the conditions set forth herein, such bidder will thereupon pay the full purchase price. A buyer's premium will be added to the hammer price to be paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. Payment in full is due within 7 days of the time of sale. Any bills not paid in full within 25 days of the date of the sale will accrue interest at a rate of 1.5% per month.

No Condition Reports are Available on Lots estimated at $500.00 or less.

Prospective buyers should satisfy themselves by personal inspection as to the condition of each lot. Although condition reports may be given on request for lots valued above $500, such reports are statements of opinion only. Regardless of whether or not a condition report is given, all property is sold subject to Paragraph 1. of the Conditions of Sale which provides that all property is sold "as is". The absence of a condition report does not imply that the property is in good condition. All dimensions are approximate. BAKKER AUCTIONS will make every reasonable effort to respond to all emails or phone calls relative to condition up until 24 hours before the sale. If there is no condition report on the web it does not necessarily mean that the item is without repair, refinish, restoration etc. It is the responsibility of the prospective purchaser to contact BAKKER AUCTIONS if they are concerned about the condition of an item beyond what is listed online.
