Bidding & Payment for Standard Sales

All bidding and payments are in U.S. currency. Bidding is done in increments, which may vary by both specie and individual lot(s) within each sale. A Bidder may be outbid at any point before the close of an event. While a Bidder can elect to receive outbid email notifications, he/she/it recognizes that these notifications rely on software, hardware and cellular data/services that may be unreliable. As such, all Bidders are encouraged to carefully monitor any event(s) they are participating in until the close of said event(s). Unless otherwise indicated, any/all lot(s) offered on the CAT Cattle website will sell subject to a reserve or minimum price established by the Seller. The Seller and/or CAT Cattle may bid on the Seller’s behalf in any amount up to the Seller’s reserve price. Seller is under no obligation to sell any lot(s) offered if the bid does not meet Seller’s reserve price.

A Bidder is responsible for any bids placed under his/her or its bidding number, account and password. The security of a bidder’s number and password is the sole responsibility of the Bidder. If at any time a Bidder’s number and/or account information is compromised, that Bidder shall notify CAT Cattle immediately to have his/her or its bidder’s number and/or account password changed.

Placing a bid represents a valid offer by the Bidder to purchase the lot(s) being offered for sale by the Seller for the amount of the bid placed. Once a bid is submitted and confirmed by the Bidder, it cannot be retracted. If a Bidder places the final bid before the close of an event, and that bid is accepted by the Seller, the Bidder then becomes the Buyer and that bid becomes a binding contract between Buyer and Seller. Fraudulent bids can and will be reported to appropriate law enforcement agencies. The Seller and/or CAT Cattle retain the right to pursue all legal and equitable remedies available to them to enforce all bids and to recover all damages resulting from a breach of this contract between Buyer and Seller. This includes, but is not limited to, a Buyer’s failure to pay for any lot(s) purchased according to the terms of this contract. The Seller and/or CAT Cattle also reserve the right to accept or reject any and all bids.

In the case of a software, hardware or communication malfunction, any event in progress on the CAT Cattle website will be terminated by CAT Cattle, and all Bidders will be notified. Handling of the terminated event thereafter will be at the sole discretion of CAT Cattle. In the case that an event is terminated due to a software, hardware or communication malfunction, CAT Cattle shall not charge any party for its services and all bids shall be considered null and void. In the case that an event is terminated prior to its close, no contract will be formed between the Bidder/Buyer and Seller.

When an event ends, all sales shall be considered final. Payment is due in full no later than 5:00 P.M. Central on the fifth day following the close of an event. Accepted forms of payment are cash, personal or Entity check, certified check, money order, ACH or credit/debit card. Checks and money orders should be made payable to CAT Cattle Co. and can be delivered or mailed to 10811 N Farm Rd. 225 Fair Grove, MO 65648. CAT Cattle does not accept personal or Entity checks from outside the U.S. A 2.9% + $0.30 processing fee will be applied on all credit/debit card transactions. A .08% processing fee with a maximum of $5.00 will be applied to ACH payments. A $50 fee will be assessed on all returned checks and/or ACH failures. Failure to pay in full by the due date may result in a late payment penalty equal to 10% of the purchase price. Buyer agrees to pay a finance charge of 15% APR from the due date until the balance is paid in full. A Buyer who violates the payment provisions of this agreement may not be permitted to bid in subsequent CAT Cattle events. CAT Cattle reserves the right to process a Buyer’s credit card or ACH on file for any lot(s) purchased if payment has not been made within ten (10) days of the event. If a Bidder cannot pay for his/her or its purchases immediately following the event, s/he or it should not place a bid.

An invoice with payment instructions for any lot(s) purchased will be e-mailed to the Buyer immediately following the close of the event. This correspondence will be sent to the Buyer’s e-mail address associated with their bidder’s number and account. If the Buyer does not receive an invoice within one (1) business day, Buyer shall contact CAT Cattle to request an invoice. Failure to complete payment according to the terms above shall result in all applicable fees, finance charges and potential ban from all future CAT Cattle events.

Bidding & Payment for Click-to-Claim Sales
For the Click-to-Claim sale format, a Bidder agrees to purchase lot(s) upon confirmation of payment method on the purchase/payment screen. As soon as the purchase is confirmed, the Bidder becomes the Buyer and is legally bound to purchase said lot(s).

Bidder shall select to use the default credit/debit card on file for their account or enter a new credit/debit card or ACH for purchased lot(s). The payment WILL NOT BE COMPLETED until the order has been processed by a CAT Cattle administrator or the Seller. All payment terms set forth above shall apply to Click-to-Claim purchases.

Title & Delivery
All lots purchased through CAT Cattle Company, LLC will become the property of the Buyer immediately upon the close of the event and, as such, all risk of damage, death or injury to lot(s) purchased becomes the Buyer’s risk.

Delivery of any/all lot(s) purchased through the CAT Cattle website must be coordinated between the Buyer and Seller. Any fees incurred with delivery are the sole responsibility of the Buyer, unless other arrangements are agreed upon prior to the event between the Buyer and Seller. Any questions regarding delivery should be directed to the Seller. If Seller delivers any lot(s) sold to the Buyer before payment has been received, collecting payment for said lot(s) becomes the sole responsibility of the Seller. CAT Cattle is not to be responsible for the delivery of any lot(s) sold on the CAT Cattle website, unless agreed upon between Buyer and Seller.
