Condition of Property: Please note that we have not made any attempts to test any items. Items may, including but not limited to, be missing parts, damaged or in non-operable condition.

<br>
Catalog/Photograph Discrepancies: Bidders are bidding on lot and auction item descriptions, not item photographs. In the event that the wrong photo may be displayed, bidders should read the entire item description and bid accordingly. For demonstration purposes or photographs, various auction items or separate lots may be joined or photographed together. Bidders should not assume a lot consists of more than one item simply because they are connected or pictured together. Please inspect all lot numbers and descriptions in full. <br>
<br>

Benton Company, Inc., that card can be charged for the total purchase price plus one $25 late payment fee if payment is not otherwise made or arranged within 48 hours of the close of the auction.

If items are not timely removed as required above, a $10.00 handling and storage fee will be assessed per auction lot, per day. If an item is not removed within twelve (12) days after the auction, the item can be considered abandoned property, with all of the buyer's rights and interests in the property extinguished with no refunds owed or offered to the buyer.

WARNING - Explanation of Credit Card Fraud: In order to bid online, buyers must register and create an account at our website, www.BidderOne.com. The credit card is not charged and successful bidders are not required to pay by credit card. However, in the event that a buyer does not make payment arrangements within the specified time or attempts to back-out of the sale by not paying for their items, L.W. Benton Company reserves the right to charge the amount due, plus any sales tax, buyers fees and/or late fees and/or non-payment penalties to the account&#65533;s registered card. If, at that time, it is determined that the card is not valid or does not have a sufficient balance to cover the charges, and the bidder or representatives of the bidder knowingly registered with this card, this constitutes &#65533;Credit Card Fraud&#65533; under Federal and Georgia state law and L.W. Benton Company reserves the right to press criminal charges for such fraud, including the swearing out of an arrest warrant in the county of the bidder&#65533;s residence. In addition to any criminal charges, L.W. Benton Company reserves the right to seek civil restitution as well. <br>
