DESCRIPTIONS OF SERVICE Sebae provides the following services under the Auction Flex & HiBid trademarks: Integrated Web Service (for Harlow Auctions), internet bidding (absentee, online-only, & webcast). You can learn more about these services in the following sections.
HIBID INTERNET AUCTION PLATFORM & WEB SERVICE DESCRIPTION Sebae provides the HiBid (formerly Bidopia) Internet Auction Platform & Web Service (“HWS”) under the HiBid trademark as a software solution for Harlow Auctions wishing to extend the audience of their live auctions to the internet. The HWS provides various features including internet absentee bidding, internet-only auctions, and webcast auctions. The HWS is able to changes its appearance to coincide with the website that it is powering. Accordingly, the HWS powers the www.hibid.com website as well as numerous Auction Flex customer websites. This ability to change appearance is a feature of the HWS. Much like internet merchant account providers can host a secure web page for a vendor to easily process payments, the HWS hosts certain portions of the Harlow Auctions website to easily enable advanced features such as internet bidding.
INTERNET ABSENTEE BIDDING Internet absentee bidding allows you to place a bid for an item in advance of an auction. This allows you to place bids on lots without actually attending the auction.
INTERNET-ONLY AUCTIONS Internet only bidding allows you to place a bid for an item prior to the auction lot closing online. In an internet-only auction there is no live auction.
WEBCAST AUCTIONS Webcast auctions allow you to bid in real-time against other bidders or place pre-bids prior to a lot going “live”. Lots are sold in accordance with the Harlow Auctions terms and conditions which are accessible from each lot’s page. It is your responsibility to read and accept the Harlow Auctions terms and conditions prior to placing your bid. When you place a bid you are agreeing to be bound by the Harlow Auctions & Sebae’s terms and conditions. By placing a bid you are entering into a legally binding and enforceable contract. Please keep in mind that you are bidding against other internet bidders as well as floor bidders, phone bidders, and regular absentee bidders (this list does not constitute a complete list of bidder types but does highlight the common bidder channels). Harlow Auctions, at their discretion, can approve or deny bidders. Harlow Auctions reserves the right to accept or deny bidders for any reason. Prior to approval Harlow Auctions may contact you to determine your credit worthiness. If Harlow Auctions approves your bid, Harlow Auctions will then process your bid in accordance with their terms and conditions. Should your bid for a lot prove successful, Harlow Auctions may contact you to arrange for payment & shipping (if applicable). If Harlow Auctions required registration via a credit card, Harlow Auctions reserves the right to process your winning bids to the credit card provided during registration. Sebae, through the Auction Flex & HiBid products & services, facilitates the internet bidding process between Harlow Auctions & the bidder. Sebae is in no way a party to the transaction.

Sebae may, in its entire discretion, refuse or remove bids where it suspects that bids contravene this prohibition.
