PICK-UP TIMES ADDED: PICK-UP DAY is Saturday, February 10th. We are also opening up a short window on Friday, February 9th ...view moreand Monday, February 12th.
ESTATE SALE items are typically in used condition; if they are new or look unused, we try to indicate that. All estate sale items are sold "AS IS", and all sales are final. We examine items in good faith when photographing them and try to provide quality shots and several angles to provide you with enough information to make a decision of whether to bid or not. Any statements about condition are opinion which is why pictures are a major part of the description, and in many cases, may be the only description included with the title. Examine them closely and read descriptions to understand what it is you are bidding on. All electronics or items with moving parts are untested unless indicated in the description. Text us (preferred method of communication) at 303-868-7515 if you need information beyond what is provided. Your bid is entirely your decision and is a commitment to follow through with a purchase.
PICK-UP: Winners will be sent an email after the auction ends to sign up for a one-hour appointment window during the block(s). You MUST sign up for an appointment time. If you do not get that email, check your notification settings on Auction Ninja right away and contact them to let them know you are not receiving ‘confirmation’ emails. That is an issue with your settings; it is not a technological issue on our end. You will need a Google login as we use Google products; if you need help with that, ask a friendly teenager as they are often the most native and confident techno support desk people out there. We often use them ourselves. 😀Ha! We are happy to help you with that task, but please do not wait until the last day as we will be quite busy with pick-up tasks, and we really do want to give you good customer service. Having appointments spreads customers out during the pickup time which reduces your wait time, minimizes parking constraints, and it allows us to prepare for your arrival-- all things that allow us to serve you better and make your experience more pleasant. Those who arrive during their appointment window will be served first. Picking up your purchases is YOUR responsibility; we provide you with multiple communications with the information you need.
Customers who purchased large or heavy items or who have large overall purchases will usually be offered time slots outside of that window. This is a courtesy to those customers and enables the pick-up day to be less crowded for everyone, thereby improving your overall experience and allowing us to serve ALL our customers better.
If you cannot make the pick-up time, you may send someone in your place; please notify us who that person will be, and be sure they bring their ID and a copy of the invoice. We cannot move, store, or hold your items. When you make a purchase, you agree to pick up what you have purchased, and you have agreed to the pick-up and shipping terms. While we would never intentionally misrepresent an item, there is always the possibility that you may find a flaw that we did not; examine your purchase before leaving the pick-up, and bring up any issues with the auction manager at that time. Some items may be packed when you arrive; we do that as a courtesy and to protect items between when they are catalogued and picked up. They were intact and up to the description when packed. They are not packed for a long or hard journey, so it is your responsibility to add packing and check items before hitting the potholes Colorado is so famous for. If something is broken when you unpack it two weeks later, it happened after it was picked up. Items left behind will be considered abandoned without refund, your credit card may be charged up to $150 for third party removal, and your bidding privileges may be canceled.
Please be kind and respectful to other customers, our clients' homes, and our staff. If there are concerns or issues, take those up privately with the auction manager. Folks who are not kind or respectful will lose their bidding privileges. This is a great business to be in, filled with 99% lovely, generous-spirited people. Be like those folks. 🙂
LOADING AND CARRYING: We cannot help you move or carry your purchases due to liability issues. You are responsible for items you purchased which may mean bringing tools, manpower, tiedowns, dollies, manpower, packing material, bags, boxes, manpower, etc., and that means doing your due diligence about the weight, size, or complexity of the item and the size of your vehicle. We provide measurements of furniture; we are not experts on whether something will fit in your vehicle or whether something is too heavy or big for you. Manpower is key; we work in a variety of homes and communities, and some of them have stairs, steep driveways, limited parking, or other challenges. Coming prepared to disassemble, pack, and carry your purchases means navigating those features, and if you need more specific information, Google Earth the address or ask us. We also put specific details about each location in the email you receive when the auction ends, so reading that email is very important. If we have available manpower, it is $100 per hour in 15 minute increments.. Heritage Estate Sales and Liquidation, LLC, its assistants and staff members and clients are not liable for any accidents or injuries or accidents before, during, or after pickup or that occurred in conjunction with your pickup.
SHIPPING: We only ship items that will fit into Priority Boxes, and we do not ship highly fragile or large items. We only ship outside the area (75 mile radius). If you need an item shipped, you are accepting the terms of $10 handling fee per lot (customer maximum may be $15-20, depending on the lots), and that your credit card will automatically be charged the Priority Mail cost plus the handling fee.
* You are important to us; you are our customers. We want your business and work hard to ensure that your experience is a pleasant one, which is why we provide a lot of information and strive to make our auctions thorough and our pickup days as organized as possible. You can do your part by reading the communications and coming prepared.
* This business is based entirely on referrals; we strive for five-star reviews and appreciate tips for how we can be even better. Please give us the chance to earn your five-star review before leaving feedback.
