Terms & Conditions - Bidding on any item indicates your acceptance of our terms & conditions listed below and all other terms announced at the time of sale whether bidding in person, through a representative, by phone, internet or other absentee bid.

Appraisals We may sell items with Appraisals or Certificates of Authenticity. In these cases, buyer is responsible for verifying Value, Authenticity, etc… themselves by their own due diligence. Appraisals should be used for verification of gemstone and/or metal weight, size, and grade only, not actual value, as price varies greatly from retail locations. Items should not be purchased with the expectation to resell for appraisal price or for profit. Certificates of Authenticity are based on opinion. By bidding, you are bidding on THE ITEM ITSELF & not the Appraisal or COA that may accompany it.
Returns: We offer a 30 day Guarantee that all items are as described in our catalog. This offers our buyers the assurance that our company stands behind what we sell. (We may require proof that item(s) are not as described to avoid cases of 'buyers remorse'). If you were bidding on the internet, shipping costs & a 10% return fee ($10 minimum) will not be refunded. This pays the fees & commission that we paid to the internet bidding provider that you bid through. After 30 days, since consignors have been paid in full, our 30 day guarantee is void & refunds are no longer available. By bidding, you accept & agree that after 30 days, all items are sold AS IS & All sales are final. There are no cancellations, returns or refunds allowed. Chargebacks are not allowed. By bidding, you agree to not file a Chargeback for any reason. Our company pays for Chargebacks, so, if for any reason you do file a chargeback, you understand that you will be charged a $100 breach of contract fee & agree to pay it.
Cancelling your internet bid: We do not cancel internet bids. If you wish to cancel a bid, you must contact the website that you bid through in order to cancel it.
Auctioneer - Auctioneer reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot for sale. The auctioneer shall have sole discretion to refuse any bid, or refuse to acknowledge any bidder. The Auctioneer's decision to refuse any bid, advance the bidding in any manner, withdraw a lot, determine a successful bidder, continue the bidding, to cancel a sale and reoffer and resell an item in dispute, is conclusive, absolute and final.
Reserves & Relisting- Some of the lots in our sales may be subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price, below which the lot will not be sold agreed upon by the consignor & our company. A representative of our company may execute reserves by bidding for the consignor. We relist items if a winning bidder in a previous auction did not pay, if we have multiple types of the same item or it is listed with a reserve and the reserve was not met.
Breach of Sale - If the buyer fails to pay in full with good cleared funds for either items won OR shipping costs by due date or fails to comply with the Terms and Conditions of the Sale as set forth herein, Bridge City Auctions reserves the right to exercise one or more of the following remedies, in addition to any other remedies available to Bridge City Auctions by law: a) Forfeit items & Hold the defaulting buyer liable for the full purchase amount plus storage & collection fees. b) Forfeit items & Charge a Remarketing/Restocking fee of $75 OR 35% of the total amount due (whichever is greater). c) Resell the property at public auction, or privately under such terms as Bridge City Auctions deems appropriate, and the defaulting purchaser will be liable for the original purchase price plus all costs of Reselling the item(s).

Item & Property Condition - All items are sold AS IS & neither the auctioneer, employees nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty of description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin or condition of the item and no statement made at the sale or in the bill of sale or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.
