Payment: Cash, Approved Check, MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express. 13% Buyers Premium with a 3% discount for Cash or Check. For wire transfer instructions, please call 478-744-0027. All wire transfer fees will be the responsibility of the buyer. Local Georgia Sales Tax will apply to each item. Dealers buying for resale may be exempt from paying sales tax if the dealer has a sales tax number and a signed tax exemption form at the time of payment. All payments must be made to L.W. Benton Company, Inc. Purchased items must be paid for in full within 48 hours of the close of the auction, unless other specific payment arrangements have been agreed to and approved by L.W.

Benton Company, Inc. reserves the right to charge the full purchase price, as well as any fees, to the credit card on file from the Bidder’s auction registration. <br>
<br>
Documentation Fee: There will be a $40 document transfer fee added to all vehicle and equipment purchases that require a title or document transfer with the State. When signatures are required to transfer the title, it is the sole responsibility of the buyer to submit the necessary signatures and information for that transfer. L.W. Benton Co, nor the Seller, will be responsible for any late fees accrued for a title transfer as the result of negligence or untimely submission of paperwork by a Buyer. <br>
<br>
End Times: All L.W. Benton Company, Inc. Online Only Auctions are timed events. Please note, L.W. Benton Company Inc. Online Only Auctions also have an auto extend feature. Any bid placed within 5 minutes of the auction ending will automatically extend the auction for 5 minutes from the time the bid is placed. Example: If an auction scheduled to end at 10:00 a.m. receives a bid at 9:59 a.m., the close time of the auction automatically extends to 10:04 a.m. The auto-extend feature remains active until no further bids are received within the 5 minute time frame. <br>
<br>
Inspection: Buyers understand they view property at their own risk and L.W. Benton Co, its representatives, nor the Seller or their representatives are responsible for accidents or damage to personal property during any inspection. Please pay special attention to any and all published preview dates/times. <br>
<br>
Condition of Property: Any and all information regarding the condition of property is derived from sources believed to be true and accurate but is not guaranteed by the Seller or L.W. Benton Company. It is the sole responsibility of the Bidder to verify any and all information. Definition of “Runs and Drives”: This description means a vehicle or piece of equipment should crank – either on its own power or with the assistance of a new battery, jump box or jumper cables – and move under its own power. It is not inferred to mean anything further. L.W. Benton Company urges Bidders to thoroughly inspect all fluids before attempting to operate any vehicle or equipment. Odometers and Hour Meters: Any odometer or hour meter information listed is simply the current reading of the meter. L.W. Benton Company has made no effort to verify these meters and lists them solely for informational purposes. <br>
<br>
Reserve Amounts: Items selling “with reserve” or minimum prices by the Seller are denoted in their description by a white letter “R” in a red or green square. A red square means the reserve amount has not been met, while a green square means the reserve price has been met and the item will sell to the highest bidder. In most cases, items without the reserve designation will sell to the highest bidder; however, the Seller and L.W. Benton Co. do reserve the right to accept or reject any and all bids. <br>
<br>
“Maximum Bids” on Items with Reserve: If an item has a reserve denoted by the letter “R” in a red square and a bidder places a “Maximum Bid” that is less than the reserve, the bidding system will automatically push that bid to that Maximum Amount. For example, say the current bid on an item is $500. The next bid increment is $600, but the bidder enters a maximum bid amount that he is willing to pay as $1,200. If the item’s Reserve is more than the Maximum Bid, the computerized bidding system will automatically place the bid at $1,200. <br>
<br>
Auction Bid Default: If the winning bidder's credit card information is on file with L.W. Benton Company, Inc., that card can be charged for the total purchase price plus one $30 late payment fee if payment is not otherwise made or arranged within 48 hours of the close of the auction. If no credit card information is on file or if the information is insufficient or outdated, a $30 late payment fee will be assessed for each partial or full day beyond the payment deadline for which payment is not made. If items are not timely removed as required above, a $10.00 handling and storage fee will be assessed per auction lot, per day. If an item is not removed within twelve (12) days after the auction, the item will be considered abandoned property, with all of the buyer's rights and interests in the property extinguished with no refunds owed or offered to the buyer. The seller reserves the right to sell these items to backup bidders and hold the original bidder liable for resulting losses to the seller. L.W. Benton Company, Inc. and/or the seller reserve the right to pursue all legal remedies.<br>
<br>
Pick-up of Items: At the completion of the auction, successful bidders will be emailed an invoice with payment instructions. Winning bidders must make payment in full or approved payment arrangements within 48 hours after the close of the auction. Payment must be made to L.W. Benton Company, Inc. , either in person at our office located at 107 Oak Valley Drive, Macon, Georgia 31217 or by wire transfer, credit card or approved check sent via overnight delivery. Sellers cannot accept payment. Payment will be accepted in the form of cash, credit card, cashier’s check, or good personal or company check. All personal or company checks are subject to approval of L.W. Benton Co., Inc. Upon receipt of payment in full the purchaser will receive an invoice marked “Paid”, which must be presented at time of pick up. L.W. Benton Company Inc. and/or Sellers are in no way responsible for pick-up, delivery or assisting in loading out of property as this is the sole responsibility of the successful bidder. It is the successful bidders’ responsibility to remove property within twelve business days. No items may be picked up without an original invoice from L.W. Benton Company, Inc. marked “PAID.” In the event that a Seller or representative of L.W. Benton Company agrees to assist in the load out of purchased lots, Buyers understand that neither the Seller, L.W. Benton Company nor its representatives are responsible for any damage to the Buyers’ property of any kind. <br>
