IMPORTANCE OF TERMS Please take the time to read the following set of terms and conditions for the auction. By obtaining a Bidder Number, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to these terms and conditions. BIDDER RESPONSIBILITIES Bidders are responsible for any and all activity, bids, and purchases involving their account. Once a bid has been placed, it cannot be lowered or deleted. LLA, Ltd. and its consignors shall not be held liable for negligent bidding activity. Bidder agrees to keep its username and password confidential. Invoices are sent to the registered email address at the conclusion of the auction after sales records have been verified. All winning bids must be paid for on the day of the auction and no later than five business days following the auction date. LLA will contact bidders to pursue payment if needed; however, payment resolution is the responsibility of the invoiced buyer. Non-payment issues will be reported to third-party bidding platforms and will result in suspension of bidding privileges. Should timely payment not be received in the manner requested or a buyer is suspected of fraudulent registration, the bidder will be in breach of the purchase agreement and LLA reserves the right to rescind the sale and pursue all legal remedy. CONDITIONS Leland Little Auctions, Ltd. has endeavored to accurately describe the items being sold, but all property offered for sale is strictly "as - is" "where - is" with all faults. All sales are final and no refunds are given. The sales records and recordings shall be conclusive. It is the bidder's responsibility to determine the exact condition/authenticity of each item. No statement in this catalogue or by representatives of LLA, Ltd. shall be considered as a warranty or assumption of liability. Written and oral descriptions given by LLA, Ltd. staff members are given as a courtesy to a client, are only an opinion, and should not be considered as a guarantee of age, composition, or authenticity. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear or imperfections. High resolution images are provided to assist a bidder in making an additional assessment of condition. By bidding, you signify that you have either closely examined the items, have chosen not to examine them, or have hired an independent agent to examine the item(s) for you. Condition reports are available via the online catalog or by contacting the LLA, Ltd. office. The online catalogue including full descriptions, condition reports, dimensions, and multiple images for each lot is available at www.lelandlittle.com.

BIDDING Absentee and live real-time internet bidding is available at LelandLittle.com. When Absentee bidding, you may accept the current asking bid or enter a maximum bid value. Live real-time internet bidding does not allow a maximum bid to be entered, only the current asking bid may be accepted. Once a lot has opened for live real-time internet bidding, absentee bids can no longer be placed. LLA, Ltd. cannot be held liable for bids that are not sent or received by the server. The Online-Only Auction has a soft close; each lot will have a 20 second timer after it opens for live real-time internet bidding. Any lot that receives a bid within the last 15 seconds will have its bidding time extended to 15 seconds. Any and all lots will close either at the designated closing time or at such point that it has not received an advanced bid within a 15 second time frame. Outbid notifications will not be received within five lots of any lot opening for live real-time internet bidding. All bids will be executed in a fair, competitive and confidential manner. While every effort is made to execute and honor bids, LLA, Ltd. is not responsible for failure to execute a bid and is not liable for any losses incurred as a result of failure to execute a bid. If you are bidding live, real-time online at LelandLittle.com, please bid quickly as there may be a time delay in receiving the live bid. Whether bidding via absentee or real-time, a confirmation will be required to finalize your bid. All bids are time stamped. In case of identical bids, the first bid received will take precedence. Where appropriate, bids will be rounded down to the nearest amount consistent with the auctioneer?s bidding increments. NOTE: It is the bidder?s responsibility to accurately record the lot number and bid amount on any bids submitted. LLA, Ltd. assumes no responsibility or liability in the event a bidder fails to do so.

Participants with limited purchase history will be subject to a bidding limit. Current bids on the internet will be executed on your behalf during the auction. Bids left on third-party websites are not presented to us or executed until a lot is offered real-time and the order in which they are received is not a factor.

LLA, Ltd. cannot be held liable for live internet bids on a third-party website that are not sent, received, or executed by the administrator.
