Closing Bid Rules
No additional bids may be placed once the auction is declared closed.
The highest qualifying bid wins the item.
1. By bidding in Rogue River Watershed Council's (RRWC) silent auction, each bidder agrees to these auction rules.
2. All sales are final. There will be no exchanges or refunds unless otherwise noted. All items are "as is." RRWC has attempted to describe and catalog items correctly, but neither warrants nor represents and in no event shall be responsible for the correctness of descriptions, genuineness, authorship, provenance or condition of the items. No statement made on our website, orally at the auction, or elsewhere, shall be deemed such a warranty, representation, or assumption of liability.
3. The auction item value listed is an estimate of fair market value. Items have not been appraised unless so noted. The amount you pay above this fair market value estimate is normally tax deductible as a charitable contribution. Please consult your tax adviser to clarify amount of the deduction.
4. Payment for items purchased must be made in full on the night of the auction to the cashier. RRWC accepts cash, MasterCard, Visa, or a check made payable to RRWC. Please allow 30 minutes after the silent auction bidding has closed before reporting to the cashier.
5. Following payments, you may pick up your purchases in the checkout area. You must show your paid receipt for items to be picked up.
6. The purchaser must pick up all items the night of the auction, unless special arrangements are made. Any item left unclaimed, without prior arrangements, will be sold and proceeds will go to RRWC.
7. RRWC reserves the right to add or withdraw items, without notice, to or from the auction.
8. Bidders on items containing alcohol must be 21 years of age or older and present a valid ID with payment.
9. Unless otherwise specified, all auction gift certificates must be used within one year of the date of the auction.
10. Restaurant certificates do not include alcohol, tax, or gratuities unless specified.
11. Each person bidding assumes all risks and hazards related to the auction and items obtained at the auction. Each bidder agrees to hold harmless from any liability arising indirectly from RRWC, their elected and appointed officials, members and employees, the auctioneer(s), the event organizers, sponsors, and/or volunteers connected with the auction.
