Buying

Come to our auctions or bid on the Internet.

Live Auctions:

Most auctions have a preview time listed. If no time is listed, feel free to call or email us to find out preview information. We accept Cash and Checks from established customers. New customers wishing to pay with checks over $500 must call us at least 48 hrs. prior to the auction for check approval. At some auctions we accept credit cards. Please look at the terms listed on each individual auction. Please remember to bring your driver's license to the auction when registering for a buyer's number.

Internet Auctions:

How it works: Enter your maximum bid for each item on which you wish to bid. When placing a 'maximum bid', the computer will bid for you up to your top amount as other bidders bid against you. If the bidding stops before it reaches your top amount, you will get it for the current bid price which may be lower than your maximum bid. Note: Bidding on a Real Estate Auction is different. The bid you place will be the immediate current bid price. Call for Details.

The link to register to bid for Internet bidding is conveniently located at the left of any bidding page. If your are having trouble with the registration process, please send an email to info@albrechtauction.com.

Payments and removal of merchandise: All purchases must be paid for at the auction location during the pickup times listed on each individual auction. We accept cash, checks from established customers, and credit cards (if phone lines are available at the auction site). No checks will be accepted from new customers over $500 without pre-approval. No refunds will be issued for merchandise left past the pickup times listed on each individual auction. We make no guarantees that we will not re-sell or discard merchandise left past the posted time.

Winning bidder notification: Successful bidders will receive an e-mail message within 24 hours of the auction notifying you of your purchase. If you do not, please email info@albrechtauction.com or call us at 989.823.8835 to inquire about your purchases.

Pickup and Shipping Information: Everything is sold -as is, where is. You are responsible for making your own arrangement for pickup or shipping.

Box Delivery: On smaller items, we can box them for you and ship via UPS, FEDEX or US Mail to the continental US. We will charge the actual shipping/insurance costs and for the packing materials. There will also be a $5.00 minimum handling fee for the first item and a minimum $2.50 handling fee per each additional item. (Note small items such as coins or jewelry may have a reduced handling fee when buying in quantities). If you wish to have us ship to you after an online auction, please e-mail your credit card number and shipping information to us @ info@albrechtauction.com or call us at (989)823-8835. The charges will include the following: Your invoice for the auction items; our boxing fee, and the UPS/FEDEX/Mail charge. We do not price UPS/FEDEX in advance, we prep it for shipping, weigh it, and send it. In your contact, please indicate your 1) buyer number, 2) which auction, 3) items you wish shipped and 4) the best way to contact you.

We will do our best to have your items shipped within 5 business days. We are not responsible for the acts or omissions in our packing or shipping of purchased lots or of other carriers or packers of purchased lots, whether or not recommended by us. Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the entire risk of the purchaser. Larger items and fragile items may also be shipped by a professional shipping and crating service (for a pickup/delivery to the store fee plus packing and shipping fees).
