Bidding

Read our detailed descriptions thoroughly! We have done our best to represent our items as accurately as possible, so please keep that in mind when placing your bids. As with all auctions, the Buyer is responsible for inspecting all items prior to bidding. Items are sold as-is, where-is with no guarantees or warranties. Unless otherwise noted, all items on this auction have been previously owned and are considered used unless specifically listed as NEW or NEW OLD STOCK. Please keep in mind: Pickup day is NOT inspection day.

It is your responsibility to inspect all items prior to purchase.

- With Jewelry, the hallmark found on the piece is what we go by in our descriptions. We are not jewelers and will not be responsible for items that are incorrectly marked.

- With vehicles, a ‘Test Drive’ does not equal a full mechanical inspection and will not reveal all mechanical issues. Photographs are considered part of the item description, please use all information provided to you to assess the value of this item before bidding. As with all used vehicles, any vehicle sold on auction by Southern Minnesota Auctions may come with typical used vehicle issues, including minor mechanical issues and past due maintenance. By placing a bid on this auction you agree to abide by these terms.

- If an item states "Tested and Works or Runs" in the description it means that the item was turned on by one of the Southern Minnesota Auction Staff. It DOES NOT guarantee that the item works perfect or was tested for the exact application it is used for. Please inspect each item to know what you are buying before bidding on the item. No refunds will be given after the auction ends.

If you are unable or unsure if you'll be able to pick up or pay for your items at the close of the auction, please do not bid.

If you have specific questions about a certain lot or would like more information, don't hesitate to contact us at 507-508-5334 between 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. Monday - Friday or email us any time at auctions@surplusmn.com.

Loadout

Loadout times are only as listed.

Failure to pay for and pick up items at the listed load out time--whether deterred by weather, ill health, malfunctioning transportation, family emergency, act of God/Buddha/SpongeBob, or scheduling conflicts--will result in your account being marked as a no-show and will put your bidding privileges with K-BID in jeopardy. We suggest someone else pick the items up for you in case you can't make it.

FOR AUCTIONS HELD AT OUR FACILITY:

We are very busy and we have a full schedule. WE DO NOT HAVE THE SPACE TO HOLD ITEMS IN OUR WAREHOUSE.

In case you need an alternative pickup time: $20 fee (payable in cash ONLY) will need to be paid at the time of pickup. Pickup must be made within 2 business days.

DO NOT show up out of the blue to see if you can pick up after the load out dates and assume your items are still in our possession. Our fantastic sellers promptly pick up their unsold/abandoned items.

Please bring help, the proper tools, and the necessary equipment to load your items as auction staff is typically busy during loadout times. For auctions held at our facility, a forklift is available to assist in loading large items from the ground level. There is no charge for this service. The Auctioneer, Southern Minnesota Auctions, and/or the property owner are not liable for injuries or damage during removal.

Failure to load your items by the end of the auction loadout will result in a $50/hour staffing charge (minimum 1 hour), payable in cash at the time of loadout.

It is your complete and total responsibility to ensure any and all items you won are present and accounted for in your vehicle before leaving the auction site.

Items that are paid for and have been held for 5 business days without contact will be considered abandoned. You will not be reimbursed and the items will be returned to the seller or re-auctioned.

Items that are not paid for with a credit card online or over the phone by the end of the loadout date will be considered no show and abandoned. This will jeopardize your bidding status with K-BID. 

FOR AUCTIONS NOT HELD AT OUR FACILITY:

There is no alternative date or time for picking up your items. Oftentimes, there is a timeline we need to follow to get the assets off the property and we do not have the flexibility to meet you at alternative times or dates, especially if the auction is a distance of more than 10 miles from our facility. In cases such as these, we can ship the items (if marked as shippable) or you can have someone else come pick your items up. You may also refrain from bidding. In some cases (not all), we can bring items back to our facility. Call or email us for details. Minimum $50 transport fee + $20 alternative pickup fee will apply.

Please bring help, the proper tools, and the necessary equipment to load your items as auction staff is typically busy during loadout times. Check the auction description to see if there is heavy equipment available to assist with loading. The Auctioneer, Southern Minnesota Auctions Inc., and/or the property owner are not liable for injuries or damage during removal.

Failure to load your items by the end of the auction loadout will result in a $50/hour staffing charge (minimum 1 hour), payable in cash at the time of loadout.

It is your complete and total responsibility to ensure any and all items you won are present and accounted for in your vehicle before leaving the auction site.

Items that are not paid for with a credit card online or over the phone by the end of the loadout date will be considered no show and abandoned. This will jeopardize your bidding status with K-BID. 

Shipping

Shipping is available on items as indicated. Look for more information under the Shipping Tab.

We prefer to take your credit card information over the phone to process shipping charges - we do not add the shipping to the invoice.

If you do not give us permission to keep your credit card information in our secure credit card processing app, Square, we WILL NOT retain credit card numbers after charging. Unless we're given consent to keep your information, it will be destroyed immediately. In that case, you need to contact Southern Minnesota Auctions after every auction you win to arrange for shipping.

Invoices are printed the morning after the auction ends. Southern Minnesota Auctions cannot be held resopnsible for incorrect shipping addresses on invoices or items that are stolen after being delivered. Once they have left our facility, we cannot be held responsible for the actions of others.

If your shipping invoice is not paid within 5 business days of the auction closing, we will consider your items abandoned. If you have paid for your auction invoice and the shipping remains unpaid, no refunds will be given. Quite honestly, we don't have the time to make calls/texts/send emails to solicit payment.
