Automatic Bidding (auto bid) option makes bidding convenient allowing you to enter the maximum bid amount* that you are willing to bid on an item. Based on your Account Preferences for notification, you may be notified whenever your auto bid increases &/or when it is exceeded.

The auction company or other bidders do not have access to see your auto bid amount. You are the only person that can see your auto bid amount (displayed in your Watch List).

Your auto bid will not “jump” to the maximum amount. The auto bid will increment up only with competing bids until either the item completes with you as the high bidder, or until your auto bid has been exceeded by another bid.

If another bidder already has an auto bid in place when you place your auto bid, the (2) competing auto bids will continue to increment until either the lower auto bid is maxed out; or if both auto bid amounts are the same the auto bid that was placed first will become winning position of the bid.

Example #1:

1. Minimum bid is at $10.00 with a $5.00 bid increment.

2. Bidder #1 places an auto bid for $77.00.

3. No other auto bids are in place, therefore Bidder #1 is high bidder at $10.00.

4. Bidder #2 places an auto bid for $23.00.

5. Bids would compete with each other as follows:

 Bidder #1 - $10

 Bidder #2 - $15

 Bidder #1 - $20

 Bidder #2 - $23 (maximum auto bid placed)

 Bidder #1 - $25 (high bid position)

The high bid is $25 not $28 because Bidder #2’s auto bid was exceeded at an increment other than $5.

Example #2:

1. Minimum bid is $10.00 with a $5.00 bid increment.

2. Bidder #1 places an auto bid of $77.00.

3. No other auto bids are in place, therefore Bidder #1 is high bidder at $10.00

4. Bidder #2 places an auto bid for $25.00

5. Bids would compete with each other as follows:

 Bidder #1 - $10

 Bidder #2 - $15

 Bidder #1 - $20

 Bidder #2 - $25 (maximum auto bid placed)

 Bidder #1 - $30 (high bid position)

The high bid is $30 because Bidder #2’s auto bid was exceeded at an increment equal to $5.

Example #3:

1. Minimum bid is $10.00 with a $5.00 bid increment.

2. Bidder #1 places an auto bid of $25.00.

3. No other auto bids are in place, therefore Bidder #1 is high bidder at $10.00

4. Bidder #2 places an auto bid for $25.00 (same amount as Bidder #1 auto bid)

5. Bids would compete with each other as follows:

 Bidder #1 - $10

 Bidder #2 - $15

 Bidder #1 - $20

 Bidder #2 - $25

 Bidder #1 - $25 (high bid position)

The high bid is $25 with Bidder #1 in high bid position because Bidder #1 placed the $25.00 auto bid before Bidder #2.

*Buyer’s premium and sales tax will be in addition to the winning bid amount.

A buyer’s premium will be added to all purchases and is as follows on all regularly scheduled weekly online auctions:18%

BUYERS PREMIUM. If buyer pays their invoice with cash, cashier’s check or wire transfer, then we waive 3% of the buyer's premium, which makes it 15%.

All titled items purchased with the intent of taking that item out of the country are recommended to contact the title department as soon as the winning bid is accepted

All high bids are considered legal binding contracts and all sales are final. All items are sold "as is where is", with NO guarantee, warranty, or possible refund written, expressed, or implied. The working/running condition of an item may not be known and may not always be listed in the items description. Sometimes we do know and list the condition of the items, but many times do not. Please note that all sales are final regardless of the purchase items condition, unless the discretion of a Shoreline Top Bid Manager deems differently.

All items sell AS IS - WHERE IS WITH ALL FAULTS and with no warranty of any type expressed or implied as to the merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose of any goods offered in this sale. All sales are made on an AS IS - WHERE IS WITH ALL FAULTS basis. All buyers are urged to physically inspect the item prior to bidding during the inspection period. No bids can be withdrawn once submitted before, during or after the auction for any reason. BUYER agrees that these terms as well as all other terms set forth below, can be amended or revised only in writing, signed by the auctioneer. BUYER also agrees that any oral representation made by the auction company or its agents shall not modify these "AS IS - WHERE IS WITH ALL FAULTS" terms. BUYER understands that any description given, written on the equipment, or advertised by any other means is not guaranteed, and BUYER will rely entirely on their own inspection. All information and descriptions contained in advertising this sale are believed correct, but no responsibility is assumed by Auction Co. or Seller for any errors or omissions.

Posted closing times and displays of Auction Co.'s current time are approximate. Auction Co. reserves the right to close early or extend auctions at any time at its discretion. It is strongly recommended that bids be placed early to avoid losing out due to an ill-timed, last minute bid. All times based on Eastern Standard Time. Dynamic bidding - The dynamic bid on this website is a feature that does NOT allow an item to sell at the end of the auction until there is 10 minutes of bidding inactivity. Example - An item is bid on at 7:50pm. An auction is scheduled to close at 8:00pm. When this bid is placed the ending time will automatically extend to 8:10pm. When another bid is placed at 8:01 the auction will extend until 8:20pm. This will give bidder 19 minutes to place another bid. If no bids are placed this auction will conclude at 8:20pm. The key to your dynamic bidding feature is that the auction extends from the preset closing time in 10 minute intervals, NOT 10 minutes from when you placed your bid. 

Forklift & Loading Dock Are Not Available.
