No person shall have any claim against the auctioneers, their agents, employees, or principals for any injuries sustained or for damage to or loss of property which may occur from any cause whatsoever.

The auctioneer, in a catalog, brochure, advertisement, or oral statement, uses his best effort to describe an item and any quantities of that item contained in a particular bid lot. Such description is made only to assist in the orderly conduct of the auction process and does not create any warranty that the item is as described or that a particular lot contains the number of items stated. Descriptions and any other information given by Central Mass Auctions or one of its agents are to be used solely for informational purposes. Central Mass Auctions is not responsible for descriptions, or information, verbal or implied.

Bidders agree to be bound by the above recited terms and conditions. All property is sold AS IS, and ALL SALES ARE FINAL. It is the Bidders responsibility to determine condition, age, genuineness, value, or any other determining factor.

Central Mass Auctions reserves the right to withdraw or re-catalog items in this auction. All purchases through Live Auctioneers will be assessed a 20% Buyers' Premium.
