If you are the winning bidder on an item, you will receive an invoice by email within 24-48 hours with instructions regarding payment and shipment of your item.

All property purchased must be paid in full within seven days after the initial invoice date. The winning Bidder’s failure to pay in full within 20 days will cause the Bidder to be faced with all, or any combination of the following measures: elimination of all future bidding privileges; credit agency reporting; legal and/or collection action. 8. All property purchased from Bally Auction must be removed within 60 days after the auction date. Bally Auction will not be responsible for paid items left for over 60 days after the auction date. (Unless a prior agreement has been made). Items left after 60 days will incur a $10/day storage fee per item. Once storage fees have exceeded the actual purchase price of the item(s) Bally Auction can exercise the right to re-auction. 9. Auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale. The auctioneer shall have sole discretion to refuse any bid, or refuse to acknowledge any bidder. 10. Some of the lots in our auctions are subject to a Reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price, below which the lot will not be sold agreed upon by the consignor and Bally Auction. Representatives of Bally Auction will execute such reserves by bidding on behalf of the consignor. 11. Packing, shipping, handling and insurance are the buyer’s responsibilities. Upon request, our staff will provide a list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the United States and overseas. Some property that is sold at auction can be subject to laws governing export from the United States, such as items that include material from some endangered species. Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.
