(the "Auctioneer") reserves the right to periodically modify the Terms and Conditions and it is your responsibility to review any and all changes made to these Terms and Conditions prior to each use of this Site. By using the Site, you agree in advance to accept any such changes.
1. To participate in any online auction, you are required to register on our Site. All registration information you provide to the Auctioneer shall be current, complete, and accurate.

You will be suspended or permanently banned from the Site if you provide false information when registering, such as a false name, fraudulent contact information, or a stolen credit card.
2. Bids left online, even bids left in "error", are legally binding and are non-retractable. All bids left online require confirmation. Bidding errors are the sole responsibility of the bidder and will not be considered as grounds for the cancellation of any sale.
Once you place a bid, and if you win, you are obligated to buy the lot. Placing a bid on our Site, winning the lot, then not paying for the purchase may result in prosecution, suspension or permanent ban from registering for future auctions.
All lots offered for auction are "as is" and all sales are final. There are no refunds, exchanges, discounts or returns accepted for any reason.
3. All items offered for auction are subject to a start price which the Auctioneer will not sell below.
4. The highest bid accepted at the lot closing will be the winning bid. The close of a successfully bid lot signifies the acceptance of a contract with Hall's Auction Services Ltd., selling as agent for the seller.
