~ Terms ~

The following are our General Terms and Conditions; however, each auction's terms may be slightly different, so it is important before bidding in an auction that you read and understand any special terms that apply to that auction as set forth in the Auctioneer’s Notes and in the details for Lot 1. If there is any inconsistency between the following general terms and the special terms for a particular auction, the special terms for the particular auction shall apply.

As-Is and Other Limitations
All items are sold "AS IS," "WHERE IS," and "FINAL," with no warranties, express or implied.

Illustrations, pictures, sounds, or videos posted on AAA Auction's website are for identification purposes only and are not warranties of any type. Photos are merely representative of the items and may not be relied upon for disclosure of all defects. All measurements are approximate, and AAA Auction encourages bidders to preview our auctions when allowed and inspect the items themselves. AAA Auction does not grade items or guarantee the authenticity of any item, including autographs. Grading and specific descriptions are sometimes provided by the sellers and are presumed to be true; however, AAA Auction does not know whether the descriptions and grading provided by sellers are correct. AAA does not guarantee the accuracy of any outside appraisals. AAA Auction does not guarantee representations from sellers such as a jersey being "game worn."  AAA Auction does not know whether some items are reproductions or originals. The buyer assumes complete and sole responsibility for inspection of items before bidding and relies solely on his or her inspection as to the condition, authenticity, and value of items. Occasionally, we include estimated values in the descriptions of items. Any such statements are statements of our opinion only and are not guaranteed. Buyers are advised to do their research before bidding on any item. The buyer waives any claims against AAA Auction and seller based upon the condition or value of items.

In an effort to be as fair as possible to both the Bidder and the Seller, in the rare case of a mistake made by AAA Auction, the Bidder and the Auctioneer on behalf of the Seller shall each have the right at their discretion to void any sale in which there has been a material mistake in either the description or the photographs pertaining to an item being sold.

Coins and Currency

• When identical coins are sold in one lot, such as a group of four proof sets for the same year, the photos provided may be of only one set, but are presumed to fairly depict the contents and condition of each set in the group.
• When coins are sold in a book, AAA Auction does not guarantee that the seller has placed the coins in the book in the correct location and inspection by the buyer is recommended.
• Buyers may be asked to review their purchase before leaving AAA Auction and sign a form acknowledging that the purchase is accepted as correct.
• Coins and currency are sold AS-IS with no warranties express or implied. Any statements as to the grade of a coin or any handwritten notes on slabbed coins or the like are not guaranteed. Personal inspection is highly recommended. If any sale is voided for any reason, any financial recovery for the buyer is limited to the return of his or her payment to AAA Auction.
• AAA makes an effort to be correct when listing the dates and mint marks of coins; however, due to the difficulty in reading some dates and mint marks, AAA does not guarantee the correctness of any dates or mint marks and encourages bidders to inspect the coins themselves.

Bidding Terms
Bidders must be at least 18 years old. Buyers of handguns and handgun ammunition must be 21 years old.

The bidding process described in the link: How to Bid is incorporated into these terms by reference.

Preview
Unless stated differently for a specific auction, previews for our auctions shall be as follows:

• No preview for items expected to sell for less than $100
• Previews must be scheduled with SignupGenius for 15 minutes per five items to be previewed.
• Preview is for specific items, not browsing. If possible, items will be brought to a table for preview.
• Covid procedures as described above must be followed.
• We will allow a buyer to cancel any sale if it appears at pickup that AAA Auction's description or photos fail to reveal a significant defect or condition of the item.

Pickup Location
Unless otherwise stated in the special terms for an auction, pickup shall be at the AAA Auction Barn at 7140 Old Viking Blvd. NW in Nowthen. Please note the special terms for each auction because sometimes the pickup takes place somewhere else. We request that winning bidders schedule their own pickup times by using our easy online sign-up sheet called SignupGenius. However, we are happy to schedule a pickup time over the phone at (763) 421-3044 for those who prefer to do it that way.

Loading
Buyers must load their items. If the pickup is at the Auction Barn, AAA staff will bring most items out of the building for you. If the pickup is at a private home, it may be necessary for you to enter the home or a detached building to remove your items. This may involve carrying items up from a basement or down from an upper level. Please check the special terms for each auction to see if this applies and call AAA Auction if you have any concerns. Notwithstanding the above, if you ask for help loading and if AAA workers help you load, a loading fee will be charged in advance that will not be less than and may be more than $30.00.

Type Of Payment
Except as stated above for coins and currency, we accept cash, good checks, cashier's checks, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Two forms of ID are needed for checks, with at least one being a photo ID. No out-of-state checks. AAA Auction reserves the right to postpone shipping any item until the Buyer's check clears the bank. There is a $30.00 fee on all returned checks. Credit cards will be accepted up to $5,000. Unless prior arrangements are made, firearms, and titled items must be paid for with cash. 

Also, payment to AAA Auction in cash of $10,000 or more requires the buyer to complete the IRS form 8300.

AAA Auction reserves the right to ask for and obtain credit card information from any bidder to guarantee their bids during the auction and to guarantee any check written for $500 or more after the auction closes. Failure to provide credit card information when requested to do so shall result in the cancellation of all unpaid bids and the privilege to bid in the future. 

While AAA Auction usually accepts credit cards, we reserve the right to request payment in cash or by wire transfers.

Buyer's Premium
Please check each individual auction for its buyer's premium.

Sales Tax
Unless the auction is an estate auction for one person only, as opposed to a consignment auction, sales tax will be charged. Please check the involved auction to see if sales tax will be collected.

Sale Items Subject to Change
The auctioneer reserves the right to add items to or remove items from the auction at any time, even during the bidding process; to split or combine lots; to edit descriptions; to add or remove photos; to add minimum bids or reserve prices; to cancel, suspend, extend or reschedule an individual item and or an entire auction; or to change any auction's closing time, preview time, or pickup time.

Late Pickups with a Call to AAA
If you cannot pick up your items on the scheduled day, you must call us during the scheduled pickup time and pay for them with a credit card or you will lose your bidding privileges. When you call, you will be asked to schedule a new pickup time on the following Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday morning. If you pay for your items but do not pick them up by the rescheduled date, you shall be charged a late fee of $10 per day until your items are picked up. If your late fees exceed the amount you paid, your items shall be forfeited by you as payment for your late fees and you shall lose your bidding privileges. AAA does not promise to call and remind you to pick up your items.

Missed Pickup and no Call to AAA

If you miss pickup and you do not call us on the pickup day or before, we will cancel the sale of your items and you will lose your bidding privileges. If you call us later and ask for your items, it shall be within our discretion to sell the items to you or not. If we still have them and agree to sell them to you, you must pay for them with a credit card during your call to us and we will charge you a $10.00 late fee. The pickup shall then take place during the next scheduled pickup day at AAA Auction. If you pay for your items but do not pick them up as described, the above paragraph shall apply. It shall be within the discretion of AAA Auction whether to reinstate your bidding privileges if they have been canceled for any reason.

Guns
All new customers to AAA Auction must o pay for their gun purchase with cash. All federal, state and local laws apply to the sale and transfer of guns and the Buyers are responsible for knowing all federal, state and local laws of the location where the gun will be transferred. In Minnesota, Buyers of handguns must have a carry or a purchase permit or an FFL license to take possession of a handgun.

Bidders may win a bid and pay for a handgun without the necessary permit; however, if that occurs AAA Auction shall retain possession of the handgun for up to 2 months while the Buyer obtains the necessary permit. Once the Buyer obtains the required permit the Buyer shall fill out a 4473 at the AAA Auction location. The sale shall be deemed complete only after a successful background check at which time the gun shall be transferred to the Buyer. If more than two months go by without the Buyer providing the necessary permit to AAA Auction and passing the background check, then AAA Auction may cancel the sale and refund the purchase price to the Buyer less the amount of the Buyer’s Premium charged which AAA Auction shall keep as liquidated damages.

By purchasing a firearm from AAA Auction the Buyer agrees to follow the manufacturer’s safety instructions and to only use the firearm in a safe manner in an approved area for a legal purpose. The Buyer assumes all responsibility for the legality of the firearm when he or she purchases it. The Buyer must be the actual buyer of the gun and not be buying it for another person. The person to whom we transfer a firearm must be the same person registered with AAA Auction as the winning bidder on the firearm. Buyers of rifles and shotguns must be 18 years old. Buyers of handguns and guns with pistol grips (AR type rifles) and the ammunition therefore must at least 21 years old.

Ammunition
AAA will only accept ammunition to sell that is in the manufacturer’s original box or package. AAA does not accept private reloads, but AAA will accept commercial reloads as long as they are commercially packaged. AAA disclaims any knowledge of the history of any of the ammunition it sells and does not guarantee whether any ammunition it sells are reloads or factory seconds. It may be that the ammunition is not as described on the box or package. All ammunition sold by AAA is AS-IS. AAA Auction makes no warranties including fitness for the intended purpose or marketability for any of the ammunition it sells. The buyer acknowledges that the use of any ammunition may be dangerous and could lead to an injury. Buyer accepts 100% of the risk in using any ammunition bought at AAA Auction. Buyer shall hold AAA Auction harmless and shall indemnify AAA Auction and its staff from any and all claims for damages, loss, injury, or the like arising from the sale and use of said ammunition.

We will not ship ammunition or items sold at the AAA Auction Barn. There is a handling charge of $9.00 for all small and medium-sized packages we ship and $20.00 for all long items such as rifles or shotguns. The handling charge for items taken to a professional shipper shall be $25 per item. Shipping fees also include the actual fees charged by the post office or professional shipper.

Internet Service
We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted access to our services. The operation of the website and services may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control.

AAA Auction is not responsible for any difficulties that may occur in the proper or timely transmission or access of e-mail forwarded to any e-mail address.
