Auction Rules

Registration

Upon entering the auction, you will receive your bid number. Use only the bid number assigned to you for bidding on silent and live auction items.

Silent Auction

The Silent Auction opens at 7:00 PM. The minimum bid and minimum raise for each item is written on the bid sheet by the item. To be valid, bids must comply with these minimums and be legible.

To place a bid, sign your name and bid number with your bid amount on the bid sheet. Doing so constitutes a legal contract to purchase that silent auction item at the price you stated if your bid is the winning bid. The last (highest) valid bid entered prior to the section closing will be the winning bid.

A maximum guaranteed bid is stated on each bid sheet. By signing your name and bid number in this box, the bidding closes. The item is yours.

The Auction Committee reserves the right to withdraw any item at any time without notice before the actual sale. In the event of a dispute, the Auction Committee shall act as final authority in determining the winning bid.

Live Auction

Live Auction bidding will begin at 8:00 PM. When bidding, please hold up your bid number toward the auctioneer. The Live Auction will continue until all items are sold.

If a group is bidding on one item, please designate one person to place your combined bid. Auction items will be awarded to one purchaser only.

A bid acknowledged by the auctioneer is a legal contract to purchase the item.

Payment

All items must be paid for by the end of the evening. For your convenience we gladly accept American Express, Cash, Check, Discover, MasterCard, Offline Credit Card and Visa.

Pick-Up

Once you have paid for your winning items, you will be issued a receipt. Please present this receipt at the Pick-Up Table to claim your winning tangible items and/or certificates for services.

It is the responsibility of the purchaser to locate and remove his/her winning item(s) by the end of the auction.

Terms of Sale

Unless otherwise noted, all certificates for goods and services must be used within one year of the auction date. All items and services are subject to the terms and conditions specified by the donors.

All sales are final. There will be no exchanges or refunds. The Rotary Club Of Lake Norman/Huntersville does not make any expressed or implied warranties or guarantees on auction items regarding quality or value of items or services. Rotary Club Of Lake Norman/Huntersville has attempted to describe and catalog all items correctly, but all items are offered and sold "AS IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS."

By the buyer's purchase, the buyer waives any claim for liability against Rotary Club Of Lake Norman/Huntersville, its elected and appointed officials, members and employees, sponsors, volunteers connected with the auction, and/or the donor of the item.
