Buying

As a buyer, you are obligated from the time you place your offer or bid to complete any purchase for which your offer is accepted, or your bid represents a winning bid in accordance with the specifications of www.mcdougallauction.com. You may not retract any offer or bid. You may not influence or manipulate the offering or bidding process to compel other buyers to accelerate their offers or bids or hamper others from offering or bidding without interference. Owners/Consignors are forbidden by contract from bidding on items they are selling. We describe all units based on a visual inspection only. We make a good faith effort to accurately describe each item, however there may be hidden damage or details we may unintentionally miss that may appear obvious to the buyer. If you bid on an item, you agree and fully understand all the terms and conditions of the use and interaction and payment/pick up conditions of www.mcdougallauction.com. By bidding on www.mcdougallauction.com or its subsidiary website addresses you agree that everything is sold on a AS IS WHERE IS basis with no guarantee of road worthiness or its entirety. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that a sale by auction is not subject to the statutory implied and express conditions, warranties and representations contained in The Sale of Goods Act and/or The Consumer Protection and Business Practices Act or similar legislation of any Provinces of Canada. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that this purchase is ''as is, where is'' and these terms and conditions are meant to be an express agreement between the parties for the purposes of The Sale of Goods Act of any province of Canada, and the Buyer shall not seek to rely upon any express or implied conditions, warranties or representations contained in The Sale of Goods Act and/or The Consumer Protection and Business Practices Act or similar legislation of any Provinces of Canada.

Terms of Reserve Bids / Subject to Approval

On this item or piece of equipment, the customer who places the highest bid will be notified via email advising them that they are the highest bidder, and the reserve price has not been met. The customer will be further advised that their bid has been submitted to the seller for consideration and is pending approval. A sales representative will be in contact with you within 48 hours to confirm the outcome of acceptance. Please note that your bid is binding throughout the 48-hour approval period and if accepted by the seller you must carry through with your purchase with no exceptions. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact the office at 1-800-263-4193.

Subject to Redemption

The phrase "subject to redemption" regarding an item or equipment signifies the possibility of the said item being removed from the auction, making it unavailable for sale during the auction process. This typically occurs when the equipment is part of a financial agreement, and we are selling it on behalf of the creditor, giving the original owner the right to reclaim the equipment until a specified date. Another scenario where this term is used is in a legal context, where a resolution is reached during the legal proceedings, rendering the sale of assets unnecessary. In such cases, legal counsel is obliged to withdraw these items from the auction, deeming them no longer eligible for sale. Importantly, "subject to redemption" does not imply any risk that, if the equipment goes to a final auction sale and the transaction is completed, you won't have full and unrestricted access to and ownership of the equipment, free from any liens or encumbrances. The term is primarily used to accommodate the financial institution or legal counsel's ability to withdraw the equipment, vehicle, or asset from the auction sale when legal obligations to any involved parties dictate so.

Terms of Lien Release

Upon payment to McDougall Auctioneers, the sale funds will be forwarded to the creditor in a timely fashion, initiating the release of their registration. While this procedure typically progresses swiftly, please keep in mind that the exact duration may vary. It's important to note that McDougall Auctioneers acts as the custodian of your title's clarity, and this clear title will be reflected in the registration over time. If you require immediate sale financing of the item and cannot accommodate any potential delays, we advise taking this into consideration during your purchase, as our process's speed is subject to external factors out of our control. For any inquiries, please direct them to financialcommunications@mcdauction.com.
