In order for us to continue to provide auctions that are cost-effective for clients and generate sufficient profit margins for us to remain a viable business, it is necessary that we recoup costs when a buyer, for any reason, has a request that we can accommodate for alternate pick-up (date, time or location) that is outside the published terms and conditions. When an alternate pick-up is mutually agreed between the purchaser and auction administrator, regardless of the reason for the request, a $80 per Hour Alternate Pick-Up Fee will be charged by a PayPal invoice.

The Alternate Pick-Up Fee is payable prior to pick-up and will be reflected in a separate PayPal invoice. The item(s) will not be released until the Alternate Pick-up Fee is paid. This will allow pickup to be delayed a maximum of 2 weeks. **Please note that in a majority of our projects we are not contracted to have access to the property outside the published pick-up dates/times and as such will not be able to accommodate special or emergency requests. 6.
