All lots are sold "as is" with no guarantee expressed or implied. On all listings we are going by what we were told by the estate/vendor or through our best knowledge. We try our best to get accurate information and good photos but please check everything. Yes, We want you to come down and look at the items. Usually open weekdays 10-4 but call to make sure I'm there (503-756-5637).

Lots close at 12 second intervals beginning at 6:30PM, the night of the auction. We use a "soft close" auction. That means if you are bidding on an item and someone makes a last minute bid, that item will be extended for 2 additional minutes, allowing you to make a counter bid. (Doesn't affect other lots).

Your Bid is a Contract: Please bid only if you will honor any purchases that you make. We do report non-paying bidders to the National Database to exclude them from further online auction bidding.

Payment: The credit card you registered with will be charged after the auction closes. If you have shipping, we will be charging for that after packing your winnings. If you wish to pay cash or card when picking up, please contact us prior so your account can be marked. We give a 3% discount to those paying cash.

PICKUP: Friday and Saturday, following the auction, are normal pickup days and we will be opened 9-3. You make a pickup appointment on a link furnished with the invoice. Late pickup the following Mon-Wed can be arranged with permission by contacting the auction.

MAILING RULES:
Yes, we can mail most items and try to keep costs low. We are not set up for shipping larger items (nothing over 24"). If you need shipping, pay for your items within 24 hours of the ending of the auction, then wait for us to send you a special invoice with shipping charges (usually takes a couple days). We do not ship large boxes. If you win several lots that make up a larger amount, it may come in several boxes. We will no mix heavy items with breakables.
Make sure your address is correct and up to date.
WE NO LONGER SHIP OUT OF COUNTRY, INCLUDING CANADA.
We charge the standard costs through either USPS or UPS. But we add an additional service charge: a $10 service charge for the first lot and an additional $2 per lot minimum.

Estates, businesses, downsizing, husbands who have been told to clean out the garage so the cars will fit... We donate or give away the junk, try our best to check everything else over and present to you the best. BigAlsAuction.com No Junk, Great Deals and Lots of Fun
