At that time, we will explain different options we may be able to offer you, including an onsite auction where we will take care of everything for you, the possibility of us arranging for your equipment to be moved to our showroom in order to immediately stop your losses due to rent or possibly a cash buyout.

Lauro's marketing campaign consists of mailing lists, fax lists, email lists, internet advertising, phone campaigns, yellow pages and newspaper advertising to name a few. Additionally, serious buyers know the value of contacting us before making any purchases. We receive hundreds of inquiries each week from buyers looking for items such as yours.

We seldom have any passed lots. Q. What is a "Buyers premium"? A. A "Buyers premium" is the amount we charge buyers, on top of the purchase price, which goes to covering the many expenses we incur in order to bring information to qualified buyers. Example: I if a buyer has a winning bid of $100.00 for an item; their final bill would be $100 +15% ($15.00) +Florida sales tax (6%, or in this case, $6.90). This allows us to split the cost of marketing an item, and costs involved in achieving a final sale, between the buyer and the seller. In any event, this formula allows both buyer and seller to achieve their goals in a reasonable amount of time. Q. What type of guarantee does my purchase come with? A. We are in the business of liquidating equipment for those who seek an immediate sale. We do not guarantee the items that we sell.

Therefore, we will never knowingly mislead or misinform anyone about the condition of anything we are contracted to liquidate. You are always welcome to inspect an item before making a purchase, if your purchase is a significant one, we strongly recommend you have the item checked out by a technician to verify the usefulness of the piece for your particular needs. If you don't know of a technician, we can recommend some independent ones whom we have personally used in the past. Q. Are my purchases subject to Florida State sales tax? A. Under Florida law, all purchases are subject to Sales tax unless you have a certificate exempting you from this tax. If you do have a Tax Exemption Certificate, you must provide for us a copy of this before settlement. Additionally, many purchases for use outside of the US would also be exempt, in this case you would need to provide documentation clearly showing where the merchandise is to be delivered to, i.e. bonded warehouse etc... Q. How long will it take for me to receive a settlement check once my goods have been sold? A. As Florida law states, we are required to settle auction funds within 30 days. In most cases, we usually settle auction accounts within 7-10 days. Know that your funds are held in our escrow account, in accordance with Florida Sate Law. For consignments we settle the first week of every month for sales completed the previous month.
