In no event shall BTTP be held responsible for having made or implied any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
Bidder shall be the sole judge of value. Bidders who bid from off site and are not present at the live auction or preview understand and acknowledge that they may not be able to inspect an item as well as if they examined it in person.
BTTP shall endeavor to describe in detail each item and any pertinent information about it. BTTP will not be responsible for any errors or omissions in the description of the merchandise unless it is a material and intentional misrepresentation of the item itself.
BTTP is providing Internet pre-auction and live bidding as a service to Bidder. Bidder acknowledges and understands that this service may or may not function correctly the day of the auction. Under no circumstances shall Bidder have any kind of claim against BTTP if the Internet service fails to work correctly before or during the live auction. BTTP will not be responsible for any missed bids from any source. Internet bidders who desire to make certain their bid is acknowledged should use the proxy-bidding feature and leave their maximum bid 24 hours before the auction begins.
BTTP reserves the right to withdraw or re-catalog items in this auction.

We ship with various services, primarily FEDEX and the US Postal Service but also freight carriers for larger shipments, looking for the best balance of speed/safety vs. cost, and will do our darnedest to keep shipping costs low while still ensuring that you get what you bid on in the condition you expect.
Note that oversized items like racks, framed pictures or other large items will significantly impact shipping costs, so take that into consideration while you are bidding.
INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: We ship all packages tracked and insured and will not lie about the contents on customs forms. NO EXCEPTIONS. If you want us to falsify shipping information, you are dealing with the wrong auctioneer.
