Mint: Perfect or Pristine
New in Box: The item has never been opened and is still in the original packaging.
Excellent: In unused or like unused condition.

6. BIDDING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1. Binding Offer
Placing a bid constitutes a binding offer between You the bidder and the Owner/Seller that cannot be rescinded or retracted. If the bid is accepted, You are contractually obligated to buy the merchandise at the price stated as Your bid, as well as pay any applicable taxes and fees.
6.2. Participation
It is important that You familiarize Yourself with these Terms & Conditions and all of the auction details for the items in which You are interested prior to bidding. You can bid prior to the auction or bid while the auction is in the process of closing. Transitional Design cannot guarantee that You will be the winner of any item.
6.3. Placing a Bid.
You can place a bid in two ways:
1) Click on the “Quick Bid” box which is the next highest bid required
2) by using the Max Bid function. The Max Bid function bids on the lot automatically for You using the standard bid increments (see 6.4) up to the amount of Your Max Bid. Max Bids are not disclosed and will not be visible to any bidders or Transitional Design personnel. The system will only bid for You if another bidder places a bid and it will only bid one additional bid increment. You can always increase your Max Bid.
6.4. Bid Increments
Most bids start at $10 unless a higher starting bid is posted. When placing a bid, bidding must increase by the following specified increments:
Price Level Bid Increment
$10 to $100 $5
$100 to $500 $10
$500 to $1,000 $25
$1,000 to $5,000 $50
$5,000 and up $100
6.5. Bidding Records
Staggered closing: Lots close two per minute. Should a bid be placed within the last two minutes of a lot’s ending time, the ending time will automatically be extended to two minutes from the time that bid is placed. The timer will continue to extend in the same manner until the bidding activity has stopped. An item closes when the timer on the lot hits zero. The winning bidder of an item is the last Bidder the bid history recorded before the timer hits zero.

a) Outbid alerts sent to Your email posted in the Bidder profile
b) Invoices will be sent to your email only after the auction has ended.

With each bid placed, You are asked to confirm the bid amount entered. Should a mistake be made before the time the auction’s bidding is scheduled to end, You may request to have Your error corrected. Please submit Your request immediately by calling the Auction Manager or Customer Support. Once the lot is closed, the bid will stand as entered. There are no exceptions.
