Auction Site General Terms and Conditions (each individual auction will have its own particular and specific Terms and Conditions)

Welcome to Bartlett Auctions. Thank you for your support and interest. 

By bidding you agree with the Terms and Conditions of a particular auction sale. Terms may vary by auction and have new information over this document. You will be asked to approve the unique terms for a particular auction.

Bidders can register online at www.bartlettauctions.com or by reaching us at admin@bartlettauctions.com

Once registered, we recommend you visit your Account Preferences tab to decide how, and when, you hear from us. The default is both SMS Text and Email but, you can decide what works best for you. This can be changed at any time.

You are free to watch online but please note that if you decide to bid, it takes a few moments to fill out the registration form and you cannot bid without registering. YOU MAY NEED TO HAVE A CREDIT CARD ON FILE TO BID. TO ADD A CREDIT CARD, LOG IN AND GO TO YOUR ACCOUNT. WE STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU DO SO BEFORE BIDDING BEGINS. FYI: WE DO NOT SEE, OR HAVE ACCESS TO, YOUR CREDIT CARD INFORMATION. IT IS SECURED BY THE LARGEST ONLINE MERCHANT PROVIDER, STRIPE.COM AND THEIR SECURITY PROTOCOLS ARE INDUSTRY LEADING. Credit Card is required to bid but it will not be automatically charged. Everyone will have the opportunity to pay using Etransfer, cash, bank draft or credit card.

All items are presented and sold ‘as is where is’ with no warranties expressed or implied. Items may be removed or added, without notice, at the sole discretions of the auctioneer. Some items in most every sale will have a Reserve or Minimum Bid amount required to sell. This is different than Opening Bid - We consider these Subject to Owner or Estate Approval and a call will be made to the estate or owner with the high bid. They may choose to accept, decline or counter-offer. The auctioneer will facilitate this with full transparency.

In the event of a dispute, the auctioneer holds sole discretion in its resolution. This includes, but is not limited to, the removal, re-offering or adjusting the terms of the item in dispute. The auctioneer’s decision is final.

*Weather and Internet/Technical Issue Contigency - As much as we try to anticipate and prepare for potential issues, some things are out of our control. In the event of a weather event or Internet/Technical malfunction or delay, that detrimentally affects Viewing Times, Bidding, Pick Up times etc, we reserve the right to reschedule Viewing, Pre-Bidding Period, Closing Time, Pick Up Time etc. This will always be done with fairness, safety and broad accommodation. That said, please bid accordingly. Internet issues in your area may not be internet issues elsewhere and we cannot accommodate every loss of internet access everywhere and, for any reason.

This auction/sale is online or live-streamed, with viewing scheduled or, sometimes available by appointment only.

How an auction closes may differ by each particular sale. For example - Most auctions feature a staggered, soft close. Please read the Terms and Conditions of each individual auction, as specifics may be differ. You will be required to agree to the Terms and Conditions, specific to each auction, prior to bidding.

Buyer’s Fee – there is never a Buyer's fee for any charity auction we help host; otherwise, a Buyer’s Fee, typically 10-15% and may vary by auction event, will be applied to the purchaser’s total before HST. Harmonized Sales Tax applies to all items offered and all services rendered.

Pay by cash, e-transfer, Wire, Certified Cheque, Visa, MasterCard, American Express. (If you choose the credit card payment option there is a 2.4% premium added to the purchase to cover credit card fees.) The auctioneer will retain possession of all items until full payment has been received and cleared.

Items are for PRE-ARRANGED DELIVERY or scheduled PICKUP only.  Immediately following the auction, you will receive a notification with full details on these schedules. Please note, if you miss the scheduled pick-up time you must make an appointment to pick up or arrange delivery.

All Items must be paid for within 24 hours following the sale; buyers must ensure the address on their profile is the delivery address they want.

The auction team appreciates your interest and fair participation in this, and all, future auction sales.
