GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
These General Terms and Conditions contain all the terms on which All Island Auctions, Inc. dba Oahu Auctions, Island Bid and the seller (also referred to as “Oahu Auctions”, "we", "us", "our" and "ourselves") contract with you (also referred to as the “bidder” and “buyer” and “you” and “your”).
BY REGISTERING TO BID AT AUCTION YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY AND ACCEPT THESE CONDITIONS OF SALE AND TERMS OF USE.
1. Registration.
a. All persons wishing to participate in the bidding process must be registered to enable bidding. All bidders must be 18 years of age or older. The bidder agrees to not use any device, software or routine to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of any transaction being conducted on and during any auction sale.
b. If you have an existing Oahu Auctions account, you can sign into your account with your existing username and password and subsequently register for the auction. If you have created multiple accounts, you will need to select the account under which you wish to transact.
c. If you have not previously bid with Oahu Auctions and, therefore, do not already have an Oahu Auctions account, you will need to first create an account.
d. By registering, you acknowledge full understanding of the General Terms and Conditions set forth herein. Your bid is a binding contract. Unpaid invoices will be turned over to a collection agency.
e. Oahu Auctions reserves the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse your registration or participation in the auction, revoke your permission to participate and/or refuse to award you lots at any time prior to, during or even after the close of the sale.
2. Oahu Auctions as Agent. Except as otherwise stated, Oahu Auctions acts as agent for the seller. The contract for the sale of the property is therefore made between the seller and the buyer.
3. Before the Auction
a. Lot Descriptions. All statements by us in the online description of any property (the “lot description”) or orally or in writing elsewhere are statements of opinion given honestly and with appropriate care and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by us of any kind. The contents of any lot description are subject to change and should not be relied upon as definitively representing the lot. Lot descriptions may include references to condition in descriptions of multiple works (such as prints, books and wine). Please contact Oahu Auctions’ Client Services via email at info@oahuauctions.com for additional information on a particular lot. The nature of the lots sold in our auctions is such that they will rarely be in perfect condition, and are likely, due to their nature and age, to show signs of wear and tear, damage, other imperfections, restoration or repair. Any reference to condition in a lot description will not amount to a full description of condition. References in the lot description or any other supplementary material to damage are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. Similarly, the absence of any statement regarding functionality does not imply that an item has been tested or that it functions properly. Unless Oahu Auctions specifically states that an item was tested and describes what was observed, bidders should assume the item is untested, may be incomplete, and may or may not work.
b. Examination of Property. You are strongly advised to examine personally any lot in which you are interested before bidding. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions is not responsible for any inconsistencies associated with the representation of items (via photos, videos, announcements, printed materials, etc.) and the actual product. Therefore, it is strongly encouraged that you inspect each item you intend to bid on. Bidders should make an informed decision on what item(s) to bid on based on personal inspection of such item(s). Oahu Auctions provides no guarantee in relation to the nature of any auction items. Bidder’s failure to inspect, or otherwise to be fully informed as to the nature, quality, condition, quantity and size of any item/lot will not constitute grounds for any claim, adjustment, refund, termination of the contract for sale, or refusal to close the sale, against Oahu Auctions or seller.
c. Buyer’s Responsibility. All property is sold AS IS - WHERE IS – HOW IS and WITH ALL FAULTS, known, apparent, or otherwise, without any representation, warranty or guarantee of any kind by Oahu Auctions. Functionality is not assumed. Unless Oahu Auctions specifically states that an item was tested and describes what was observed, bidders should assume the item is untested, may be incomplete, and may or may not work. The absence of a statement regarding functionality does not imply that an item works, is complete, is fit for any purpose, is free from defects, or has been tested by Oahu Auctions. Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the property and the matters referred to in the lot description. If you are considering bidding on a lot you should examine it – see 3(b) above.
(i) For vehicles purchased through this auction, the successful bidder assumes full responsibility for all fees associated with the vehicle. This includes but is not limited to fees required to bring the vehicle's registration current (if applicable), any penalties or fines linked to the vehicle, other applicable administrative or regulatory fees.
d. Right to Remove Items. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions reserves the right to add/remove items from the auction at any time for whatever reason. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions reserves the right to withdraw/modify any of the items listed in the catalog and/or add, remove or modify reserve amounts on any auction lot.
e. Right to collect a deposit. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions may place a $5,000 hold on the credit card provided once a bidder’s cumulative bids reach $25,000, with additional $5,000 holds at each $25,000 level. We may also, at our discretion, require a deposit of up to 10% of total bids at any time during the auction. If a deposit cannot be processed or the card is declined, bidding privileges may be suspended and any active bids may be removed until a valid payment method is provided. All deposits are used solely to confirm bidder commitment and protect the integrity of the auction.
4. Right to Cancel Auction. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions reserves the right to cancel the auction entirely, extend the auction end date, or end the auction early.
5. During the Auction
a. Logistics. The application that enables online bidding is optimized for broadband connectivity (DSL or cable modem). Please note that broadband or other capacity constraints, corporate firewalls and other technical problems beyond our reasonable control may create difficulties for some users including, by way of example, in relation to accessing sales and in maintaining continuity of such access. Errors may occur in the quality of digital images. Oahu Auctions does not accept liability for such difficulties or errors.
b. Refusal of Bidding. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to reject, or cancel any bid(s) at any time for any reason. Island Bid/Oahu Auctions reserves the right to disable or deactivate your account at any time during the sale.
c. Bidding as Principal. When making a bid whether as an individual or on behalf of an entity, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price, which includes the hammer price for each lot (i.e. the amount of the highest bid for the sale of a lot), together with the buyer’s premium, plus any applicable value added, sales or compensating use tax or equivalent tax, any and all shipping expenses, including costs, packing and handling, any loss damage liability fees, and all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Oahu Auctions before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Oahu Auctions and Oahu Auctions and the seller will only look to the principal for payment. Oahu Auctions and its staff reserves the right to bid on and purchase merchandise.
d. Auction End. The ending date and time of any online auction is specified in the Auction Details section of the auction page.
e. All Sales Final. All sales are final. No returns allowed. No refunds or price adjustments will be provided for any reason.
f. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the property is being sold “AS IS, WHERE IS, AND WITH ALL FAULTS”. Seller makes no representations or warranties, either express or implied, with respect to any matter relating to the property. NO EXPRESS WARRANTY, NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NO IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT PROPERTY.
6. After the Sale
a. Successful Bids: Unless Oahu Auctions decides to use its discretion as set out in paragraph 5.b. above, the highest bid when the lot closes will be the successful bid. This means a contract for sale has been formed between the seller and the successful bidder. Winning bidders will receive an email notification of any successful bid. Neither Oahu Auctions nor the seller accepts responsibility for notifying you of the result of your bids.
b. Payment Terms. Payment terms and details are stated under the Auction Details section of each auction.
c. Buyer’s Premium. In addition to the final bid price for each lot, you agree to pay Oahu Auctions the buyer’s premium, plus any applicable Hawaii General Excise Tax, any and all removal, transport and shipping expenses, including costs, packing and handling, any loss damage liability fees, and all other applicable charges. The buyer’s premium is 15% of the hammer price on each lot. Hawaii General Excise Tax of 4.712% will be added.
d. Payment Deadline and Passing of Title. You must pay the full amount due, comprising the hammer price, buyer’s premium, any applicable Hawaii General Excise Tax, and all other applicable charges in full within the time specified under the Auction Details section of each auction. This applies even if you wish to arrange for removal, transportation and shipping of the items/lot.
e. Remedies for Non-Payment. If the buyer fails to make payment in full, cleared funds by the payment due date required by paragraph 6.d., Oahu Auctions will be entitled in our absolute discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting any other rights or remedies available to us by law):

(iii) to cancel the sale;

(v) to set off against any amounts which Oahu Auctions, may owe to the buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the buyer;

(vii) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security over any property in Oahu Auctions’ possession owned by the buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the place where such property is located.

(viii) to report and turn over all unpaid accounts to a collection agency; and/or
(ix) to take such other action as Oahu Auctions deems necessary or appropriate.
f. Removal of Purchased Items/Lots. Purchased items become the full responsibility of buyer at time of payment. Removal, including but not limited to packing, handling, transport and shipping is at the expense, risk, and liability of the buyer.
