The information and description found in the advertising materials for specific sales are deemed reliable but are not guaranteed. AWS neither assumes responsibility nor makes any warranties regarding the sale's contents. AWS does not represent or warrant that the condition codes are accurate. It shall be the Buyer's responsibility to verify information and item's description, including but not limited to, estimated weight, count, measure or other factors that determine the price.

PAYMENT TERMS:
The Buyer must pay the total purchase price before property may be removed from AWS's site.

Company Name
Customer Name
Telephone Number
Order Number
Signature and Date
Acceptable forms of payment include VISA™, MasterCard™, cashier's check, money order, wire transfer, and PayPal™. Payment in full must be received within 72 hours of the order.
In the event the Buyer fails to pay the entire purchase price within the time set forth by AWS and/or fails to comply with any of the Terms and Conditions of the sale, AWS will resell the property at public or private sale without further notice.
It is a violation of law to place orders in a false name, even if AWS's software initially accepts such an order. Please be aware that even if you do not give your real name, your web browser transmits a unique Internet address that can be used by law enforcement officials to identify you. Submitting a false order puts you at substantial personal legal risk. Fraudulent buyers will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
REMOVAL OF PROPERTY:
If for any reason removal or purchases cannot be completed quickly, it is the responsibility of the Buyer to arrange with the AWS Site Manager for an extension of time. AWS shall not be responsible for property that is not removed within the time allotted. If property is not removed within the specified removal period for the sale or scheduled for removal at a later date with the AWS Site Manager, AWS will consider the property to be abandoned by the Buyer and the Buyer shall have abandoned all right, and interest therein. Abandonment or late removal letters will not be sent by AWS to the Buyer prior to exercising the right of abandonment.
In the event that AWS extends the removal period to accommodate a buyer's needs, the Buyer understands and accepts that the liability and risk of loss shall not rest with A & W Surplus, but shall be at the Buyer's own risk.
Buyer is responsible for rigging, loading, securing and transporting purchased property, to include all costs and risks associated with removal. In certain situations, unless otherwise stated, AWS will provide a free tailgate loading but will NOT guarantee a specific loading time. In consideration for this 'no cost' loading service, the Buyer agrees to release, hold harmless and waive any and all claims, causes of actions, damages (including consequential damages and/or loss of use) or liabilities of any kind or nature against AWS.
At Buyer's request, AWS's personnel may provide information on packing and shipping services. Buyer understands and acknowledges that this is informational only. Buyer further agrees to hold AWS harmless from any liabilities, damages or consequences resulting from the selection and use of said packing and shipping service.
Should the Buyer choose to use a transportation company for the removal of their property, AWS will not be responsible for any of the associated costs whatsoever. The Buyer is reminded to be specific and clear in the instructions to the Transportation Company so that AWS is not shown as a responsible financial party.
• The Buyer or their agent is responsible for property counts at the time of removal/delivery. Claims after that time will not be honored.
PROSPECTIVE BUYERS ARE CAUTIONED THAT:
The Buyer hereby agrees to defend, indemnify and hold AWS harmless from and against any and all damages, costs, claims or liability (including reasonable attorneys' fees) for any injuries to persons or property of any type whatsoever, occurring during or resulting from the sale, removal, use or operations of the purchased property.
Some items may be subject to export restrictions imposed by applicable U.S. Laws and Regulations. Buyer is responsible for compliance and should become aware of requirements and associated penalties for failure to comply.
I UNDERSTAND THAT BY PARTICIPATING IN AN A & W SURPLUS TRANSACTION THAT I AM AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
