The Fine Print!
-
All Sellers must adhere to BAOA ethics of listing items for auction and pick up procedures.
-
Closing days and times are shared with other Sellers. For example, if you are assigned an auction ending day of Tuesday with another Seller, then you alternate weeks which are FIXED. So if you decide to cancel an auction, you can only reschedule to your next assigned week.
-
$100 fixed fee of Auction Platform (payable in advance), and 10% of Sales up to maximum of $1500 per month (payable the 1st of the following month).
-
We provide optional use of Rohnert Park or Novato warehouse on a weekly basis for a usage fee for Sellers to store and conduct auctions (preparation and pick ups). For those auctions that a usage fee is paid and done at our warehouse locations, the 10% of Sales is WAIVED.
-
Month to Month with a 30-day cancellation. BAOA reserves the right to suspend auctions if payments are past due any amount of days.
