Historical Estates, Gun & Antique Auction

PAYMENT: WE DO NOT ACCEPT PAYMENT VIA CREDIT CARDS ON FILE WITH LIVE AUCTIONEERS. Payment for items purchased in the auction must be sent via USPS priority mail within 3 days (72 hours) of the close of the sale. We accept personal/business checks, money orders, cashiers/bank checks and cash (cash on delivery - COD). The amount due will be detailed on your Live Auctioneers Invoice. Payment address: Iroquois Auctions, P.O. Box 736, Brewerton, NY 13029. Payment can also be made in person with the auctioneer or one of their designated representatives. If no payment has been received by the auctioneer (or contact made with the auctioneer) within 14 days of the sale, the buyer will be flagged for non-payment in the Live Auctioneers system. This WILL have an effect on your ability to register for future auctions (both ours and all others). We will hold all items sold until payments have cleared our bank. Live Auctioneers (online) bidders will pay a 20% Buyer's Premium. SHIPPING: The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs - NO exceptions. You can pick up your item(s) after the sale or we will ship the item(s) for you. If we ship your item(s), you will be sent a SEPARATE shipping invoice after the sale by our shipper within 30 days. Shipping times may be extended to 30-60 days due to the number of online sales received. Packages will not be shipped until all payments have cleared. Items that have been paid for will be given priority. Packages are sent via the USPS or UPS. There is a standard minimum $20 boxing fee per box shipped. All packages are insured for the purchase value - NO exceptions. You MUST ensure that the address you have on file with Live Auctioneers is the correct shipping address. We are not responsible for packages shipped to the incorrect address on file or the costs associated with shipping it there. For larger items (furniture, etc.) we can recommend shippers or you may call and discuss delivery for a fee. Our ability to deliver will depend on the size of the item(s) and the final destination. You may also arrange your own shipping for the item(s) you purchase. Please note that all ammunition items must be shipped via UPS Ground and due to the weight it may have to be shipped in multiple shipping containers/boxes. FIREARMS: This auction will be offering firearms for sale. During this sale, all NYS and Federal firearms laws will be adhered to. There will be proper paperwork filed and NICs checks will be run for transfers at a cost to the buyer. If you cannot pass a NICs check, DO NOT not bid on a firearm. If you do not have a NYS pistol permit, DO NOT bid on a handgun. We CANNOT and WILL NOT hold handguns until you have received your permit. If you purchase a firearm and the NICs check receives a "deny" message, you will not receive the firearm and your NICs check purchase cost WILL NOT be refunded. It is up to you to file a NICs appeal to the FBI. All firearms for sale are sold "as is, where is" with the understanding that they have not been tested, fired or cleaned before the sale. ALL OTHER ITEMS: All other items in the auction will be sold "as is, where is" with NO RETURNS. We are not responsible for incorrect descriptions, age, wood type, scratches, chips to glass, authenticity, etc. We will, however, try to describe every item to the best of our ability having more than 50 years of experience in the business and make every effort to try to meet and exceed your needs. SALES TAX: New York State residents without a valid Sales Tax ID number will pay a sales tax of 8%. Buyers with a valid New York State Sales Tax ID number will need to fill out a New York State Sales Tax Exemption form to avoid being charged sales tax.
