2. Sales


Overview — Odyssey Estate Sales is a listing, information and auction website that brings together Buyers and Sellers. Items may be sold by a Seller through a consignment arrangement with Odyssey Estate Sales (a " Consignment Items"). For Consignment Items, Odyssey Estate Sales will assist Seller in preparing a listing on the Site.

DISCLAIMER: Odyssey Estate Sales is not a broker or dealer and does not sell, exchange, buy, or offer for sale, negotiate or attempt to negotiate, a sale or exchange of an interest in any item listed for sale on our service. Odyssey Estate Sales does not hold or possess title for any item listed for sale on the service.

Item Descriptions – All items are sold “as is-where is” and you are aware that, unless otherwise stated, the items sold on the Site are not new nor in perfect condition, may have patent and/or latent defects, may require touch-up or repairs prior to use, and the available information about these items may be limited.

For Consignment Items, Odyssey Estate Sales will not list every flaw associated with each item as these are to be expected. In the case of obvious faults (chips, cracks, significant damage, etc.), if Odyssey Estate Sales is aware of a fault, it will endeavor to list the fault within the description. Odyssey Estate Sales will provide descriptions based on its assessment of an item. However, Buyers should not assume that our assessment of condition will be the same as your assessment. It is the Buyer’s responsibility to read and review all descriptions and images of an item before bidding, and the Buyer acknowledges that in posting such descriptions, Odyssey Estate Sales solely relies on information provided by the Seller.



DISCLAIMER: All items and item descriptions are provided “AS IS” and “WHERE IS” and Odyssey Estate Sales and sellers make no, and expressly disclaim any and all, guarantees, warranties and representations, express or implied, to buyers with respect to any item or the accuracy or completeness of any item description or the ability of a seller to sell an item, and Odyssey Estate Sales and Sellers expressly disclaim the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose title and noninfringement. Further, for the avoidance of doubt, Odyssey Estate Sales and Sellers make no warranties, express or implied, with respect to an item’s quality, safety, legality, rarity, importance, historical relevance, or condition.



Extension (Soft Close) and Close of Internet Bidding — At the scheduled date and online sale closing period of a sale, items will begin to close at a predetermined number of items per minute. All online sales may be subject to our automatic extension system defined as follows: if an item receives a bid with less than two (2) minutes remaining until closing, the close time will be reset to two (2) minutes from the time the bid is placed and will continue to reset to two (2) minutes with each newly placed bid. The item will not close until two (2) minutes have elapsed with no additional bid activity.



Sales Format — All bids must be placed through the Site. Absentee bidding is not allowed. Unless otherwise explicitly stated in the auction or item description, all sales are conducted without reserve by the Seller. Unless otherwise explicitly stated by DFW Estate Company on the Site, the auction of personal property through the Service is conducted according to the following guidelines: (i) the property is sold to the highest bidder without reserve; (ii) the auction does require a minimum bid; (iii) the auction does not require competing bids of any type by the Seller or an agent of the Seller; and (iv) the Seller of the property can withdraw the property from auction after the auction is opened and there is public solicitation for bids; Odyssey Estate Sales reserves the right to withdraw any item from the Site or to amend any content on the Site at any time in its sole discretion. Odyssey Estate Sales will not be liable to Buyers, Sellers or any third party if we withdraw an item, amend any content on the Site, or deny you access to the Site or the Services.



Transfer of Title — We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the Seller to the Buyer. Uniform Commercial Code § 2-401(2) apply to the transfer of ownership between the Buyer and the Seller, unless the Buyer and the Seller agree otherwise.



3. Bidding and Auction


Buyer’s Contract — Your winning bid placed on the Site represents an irrevocable contract and you are responsible for paying all amounts due to Odyssey Estate Sales. If you cannot pay for the items or agree terms and costs, please do not bid on the items. For motor vehicles, a bid or offer initiates a non-binding transaction representing a Buyer’s serious expression of interest in buying the Seller’s item and does not create a formal contract between the Buyer and the Seller.

Placing a Bid — You agree and acknowledge that, in exchange for valuable consideration (including but not limited to the rights to use the Site, use the Services and participate in the online auction), all bids placed by you are irrevocable offers to purchase an item that may not be withdrawn by you at any time prior to the close of the auction. You expressly agree that, due to the irrevocable nature of the bids, any cancellation or correction of a bid by Odyssey Estate Sales may result in a previous bid being the highest current bid subject to acceptance at the close of the auction. By placing a bid, you expressly agree that if you are the winning bidder you will pay for your item and agree to any additional handling and shipping fees applicable for shipped items. It is your responsibility to read the full item listing and to understand the pickup and delivery options and costs for each item before you place your bid. All bids are shown in US dollars and all taxes, shipping, and handling charges are additional.

Current and Auto Bids — When submitting a bid, you must raise the bid by a minimum established increment.

Bid increments are as follows:

0-$99 Bid Increment is $1

$100-$999 Bid Increment is $10

$1000-$4999 Bid Increment is $25

$5000-$9999 Bid Increment is $50

$10,000 + Bid Increment is $100

You may elect to raise the bid by more than the required current by entering a higher bid in the “Bid Here” box. If you enter a higher current bid and your bid is the winning bid, you agree to be bound to your bid amount, regardless of any other previous bids. You may also elect to enter a proxy bid in the “Bid Here” box. If you enter an Proxy Bid, the system will automatically raise your bid by the specified increments if you are subsequently outbid, up to your designated proxy bid amount. Proxy Bids are not disclosed. All bids are do not include any taxes, shipping or handling fees.

Increasing Your Own Bid — The system will permit you to raise or lower your own bid by rebidding on the same item. This is to permit you to raise the price of an item out of the reach of other bidders. If you rebid on an item, your new bid is binding. If you are the current high bidder and want to increase your auto bid without increasing the current bid, you must use the “Bid Here” function.

Bid Correction/Retraction — As stated above, all bids represent irrevocable offers to purchase that may not be withdrawn prior to the close of the auction. It is your sole responsibility not to submit erroneous bids. In the event that you submit an erroneous bid more than twenty-four (24) hours before the scheduled close of a sale, you may request a correction through our Contact Form By emailing info@odysseyestatesales.com. Bid corrections are at the sole discretion of Odyssey Estate Sales. Bid correction requests will become part of your user history and are subject to review. Under no circumstances will a bid correction request be honored in the final twenty-four (24) hours of a sale. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Odyssey Estate Sales reserves the right to cancel any bid at any time if, in our sole discretion, we determine an error was made.

Bidding Notices — For your convenience, Odyssey Estate Sales provides certain e-mail, push and SMS communications regarding the status of ongoing sales. These communications are provided as a courtesy only and are not official bid status communications. The failure to receive a notification of a winning bid does not relieve you from your contractual obligations as the winning bidder. To confirm the status of your current bids, visit the "Items I have bid on"page. You expressly agree that the display of the highest bid and the status of your current bid on the Site at the close of the auction are both accepted means of acceptance of your bid by the Seller. The bid history reflected on the Odyssey Estate Sales system supersedes any e-mail, push or SMS communication in dispute resolutions.

Bidding Instructions — For additional information and a step by step walkthrough of the bidding process, follow this link

Shill Bidding — You represent and warrant that you will not engage in shill bidding. Shill bidding happens when anyone (including family, agents, friends, employees, or online acquaintances) bids on an item with the intent to artificially increase its price or desirability, usually on behalf of the Seller. You will be held liable for any damages incurred by Odyssey Estate Sales due to your related shill bidding.

In the unlikely event that Odyssey Estate Sales has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, " Claims"), by binding arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in Washington, unless you and Odyssey Estate Sales agree otherwise. Each party will be responsible for paying any filing, administrative and arbitrator fees. and the award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; provided. You may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed as preventing Odyssey Estate Sales from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights. If an arbitrator or court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate and Legal Disputes shall still apply. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or Odyssey Estate Sales may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and Odyssey Estate Sales subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you and/or Odyssey Estate Sales may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver – With respect to all persons and entities, regardless of whether they have obtained or used the Service for personal, commercial or other purposes, all claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacities, and not as a plaintiffs or class members in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action or other representative proceeding. This waiver applies to class arbitration, and, unless we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims. You agree that, by agreeing to these Odyssey Estate Sales Terms of Service you and Odyssey Estate Sales are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, private attorney general action, or other representative proceeding of any kind. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other users. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court, subject to your and Odyssey Estate Sales right to appeal the court’s decision. All other claims will be arbitrated.

Jurisdiction – Unless you and we agree otherwise, in the event that the Agreement to Arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, either as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order, or for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision above, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm, you agree that any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Odyssey Estate Sales must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Tacoma, Washington. You and Odyssey Estate Sales irrevocable agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Washington for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes. You further agree that Pierce County, WA is the proper forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the arbitration provision below is found to be unenforceable.
