Winning Bidders have an allotted timeframe to request pick up if they wish to do so. See above for pick up time and location. If neither shipping nor pick up is requested, won lots will automatically have shipping and handling fees added to their invoice and charged after 48 hours of being invoiced. By registering with EstateSales.org, agreeing to these Terms & Conditions, and/or placing bids on our lots, you are committing to purchase and accepting all responsibility for any bids, fees, sales, and transactions and acknowledging that all sales are legal and final.

For more information on shipping, insurance, and handing fees, please see shipping policy below.
3. If for any reason, the Buyer's payment option fails, SSA reserves the right to attempt to charge any invoices "past due" indefinitely. It is at SSA's discretion to attempt to charge the "past due" invoice, to re-list, re-sell, offer to next highest bidder, or do with what they see fit with lots after 48 hours of non-payment has elapsed. SSA reserves the right to attempt to charge winning Bidders until their invoice is fully paid. SSA also reserves the right to delete any won lot(s) from past due invoices and attempt to charge winning Bidder until invoice is paid.

Items are shipped in-house and usually within 10 business days of receiving payment of sale. Large items and artwork may take longer to package and ship.

If you need help calculating a cost, reach out to us before placing a bid. Shipping prices are non-negotiable. SSA is not responsible for costs that shipping carriers charge and Buyers are not permitted to ask for other methods of shipping or a less expensive price. Insurance costs are what the shipping carrier charges to cover the "hammer price" of each lot if something were to happen to the package in transit. This will be included in the shipping cost on the invoice. Insurance is added to every package's shipping cost and is non-negotiable.
3. Each invoice will have a handling fee dependent on amount of lots won. This fee will be in addition to insurance and shipping cost. The handling fees are as follows:
Handling Fees:
$5 for invoices with 1-3 won lots
$10 for invoices with 4-8 won lots
$15 for invoices with 8-14 won lots
$20 for invoices with 15-20 won lots
$5 additional for each increment of 5 won lots thereafter (example: invoices with 32 won lots = $35 in handling fees)
Oversized packages (any one side of package exceeding 19") will be subject to an additional $5-$10 handling fee to cover the cost of its packaging box.
4. Buyers cannot request separate won lots to be combined for shipping. However, in some circumstances, SSA reserves the right to combine separate won lots for combined shipping to the same buyer and address. In such circumstances, SSA will adjust shipping costs, if any, accordingly for Buyer prior to sending invoice.
5. SSA will choose the shipping carrier at our own discretion. Buyers are not permitted to request a specific shipping carrier. If there is an issue with Buyer’s shipping address or information, it is their responsibility to contact SSA prior to shipment. If a Buyer does not receive deliveries from certain carries, it is their responsibilities to inform SSA prior to paying invoice. Shipping addresses and destinations cannot be altered once invoice has been paid and no refund will be issued.
6. SSA tries our best to ensure all items arrive safely to their destination. We understand that once out of our hands, the package and its contents are out of our control and for this reason, all packages are shipped with insurance. SSA is not responsible for damage, issues, or missing/lost/stolen items or lots after shipment, regardless of cause.
