20. IMPORTANT NOTICE

VCA usually auctions material at the rate of 60 - 100 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now, as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally, the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that VCA may award the lot to another bidder as its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay Live bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases, the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay Live bids. Also please note that all VCA lots purchased through eBay Live, carry a 20% Buyer’s Premium. Please make sure you read the terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Victorian Casino Antiques. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by VICTORIAN CASINO ANTIQUES, and all other information should be considered preliminary.

Winning Notification and Billing: After the FINAL session in this auction is complete, VCA will send e-mail invoices. This process normally takes several days. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Victorian Casino Antiques.

Second Chance Offers: Victorian Casino Antiques does not make Second Chance Offers. Once our auction ends, if you receive a Second Chance Offer to buy this item DO NOT accept the offer. Please forward any Second Chance offer emails received on any of our auctions to eBay’s Safe Harbor Department.
