IF IT IS YOUR FIRST TIME TO ATTEND OUR AUCTION, WE WELCOME YOU AND LOOK FORWARD TO MEETING YOU AND GETTING TO KNOW YOU. WE WILL REQUIRE THE FOLLOWING REGARDING PAYMENT FOR PURCHASES:
BANK LETTER OF GUARANTEE TO MAYER AUCTIONEERING GUARANTEEING YOUR CHECK IN THE AMOUNT OF YOUR PURCHASE TO BE PRESENTED AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION.

MERCHANDISE WILL BE LEFT AT BUYER'S OWN RISK, NOT OURS.

WE WILL NOT ACCEPT POST DATED CHECKS AND WE WILL NOT "HOLD" ANY CHECK FOR A "DAY OR TWO" AS THIS IS VIEWED UNDER THE TERMS OF TEXAS LAW AS AN EXTENSION OF CREDIT.
