The owner of the items upon which Buyer will be bidding may be owned either by CME AUCTIONS or by another entity who has retained CME AUCTIONS to sell such items (the “Owner”). CME AUCTIONS reserves the right to modify these Sale Terms at any time and any such modification shall become part of these Sale Terms. By registering, the Buyer agrees that it has read and fully understands these Sale Terms and agrees to be bound by these Sale Terms.

At its discretion, CME AUCTIONS may contact Bidders via email or telephone before or during the sale to require a bank letter of guarantee or a deposit. If CME AUCTIONS does not receive a response from its attempts to contact Buyer or if the Buyer does not provide a deposit, CME AUCTIONS reserves the right refuse Buyer’s registration or additional bids with Buyer responsible for all lots or Goods purchased to that point or to cancel Buyer's bids and re-sell Goods.
   
   
3. Invoices & Payment Instructions
   Bidders will be sent an electronic invoice to the email address provided during registration, and will be sent detailed payment instructions via email along with their invoice. No other communication from any party including any online bidding platform will be deemed an award of winning bid or invoice.
   
   
4. Payment
   For all winning bidders, full payment of the purchase price for the Purchased Items including Buyer’s Premium (see section 6.) and Rigging Fees (if applicable), due to CME AUCTIONS (the “Purchase Price”), and sales tax (if applicable, see section 5.), must be made in United States Dollars, and must be made on or before the due date set forth in the invoice sent to Buyer at the end of the auction (the “Invoice”).

CME AUCTIONS reserves the right to charge any buyer’s credit card for purchases made at the sale including the Buyer’s Premium, Rigging Fees (if applicable), and sales tax (if applicable, see section 5.) associated therewith if there is no communication between Buyer and CME AUCTIONS.  We will make multiple attempts to contact Buyer prior to charging the credit card associated with the account.

Furthermore, if Buyer or Bidder is in default of payment, CME AUCTIONS reserves the right to charge the credit card on file for up to the full Purchase Price, and sales tax (if applicable, see section 5). Buyer agrees that it remains responsible for payment of the Purchase Price and CME AUCTIONS shall have the right to commence all legal actions against Buyer for collection of the entire Purchase Price amount. Buyer shall also be liable for any and all costs and expenses incurred by CME AUCTIONS arising out of or in connection with CME AUCTIONS’s efforts to collect any unpaid amounts hereunder including, without limitation, attorney or collection agency fees and expenses. No forbearance, indulgence, or delay by CME AUCTIONS in taking any action hereunder shall be deemed a waiver of any rights of CME AUCTIONS hereunder. Until CME AUCTIONS has received payment in full of the Purchase Price, the Buyer shall have no right to dismantle or remove any of the Purchased Items from the real property located at the auction site (the “Real Property”).

Note: For any Purchased Items paid in cash with a value of $10,000 or greater, Buyer is required to complete United States Treasury Form Number 8300 and return it to CME AUCTIONS at the time of purchase. Buyer shall pay CME AUCTIONS a late penalty on all amounts over 30 days past due computed at the greater of (i) 18% per annum, and (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable Wyoming law.

1. Taxes
   The Purchase Price does not include any federal, state or local taxes including sales tax, which are in addition to the Purchase Price, and must be paid by Buyer where applicable, and will be added by CME AUCTIONS to the Invoice unless Buyer furnishes CME AUCTIONS with an acceptable tax exemption certificate (Exempt Use or Resale). In addition, any and all foreign duties and taxes are also the responsibility of Buyer, and Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds CME AUCTIONS harmless from any and all claims, costs, expenses and liability incurred by CME AUCTIONS resulting from Buyer’s failure to pay any foreign duties and taxes.

To receive the benefit of any sales tax exemption, Buyer must supply CME AUCTIONS with a state sales tax exemption certificate acceptable in form, scope and substance to CME AUCTIONS at CME AUCTIONS's sole discretion. If Buyer does not submit evidence of their exemption prior to the close of the auction, Buyer will be charged sales tax, which may be refunded upon Buyer providing documents necessary to prove their qualified exemption within 10 business days from the date of purchase. After 10 business days, Buyer will be required to submit any refund request directly to the state for which the original sales tax was collected and remitted by CME AUCTIONS. The failure of CME AUCTIONS to include any such federal, state or local taxes does not excuse the Buyer from responsibility for paying any such taxes and Buyer hereby indemnifies and holds CME AUCTIONS harmless from any and all claims, costs, expenses and liability incurred by CME AUCTIONS resulting from Buyer’s failure to pay any federal, state or local taxes.

1. Buyer’s Premium and Processing Fees
