1. At the time of signing this contract I have entered into an agreement to deliver and offer my vehicle for sale at the Silver Collector Car Auction Inc. for the reserve price stated. The reserve price is an expected selling price that is inclusive of the auction commission. The Auction Company reserves the right to lower the commission in order to sell the car with the seller's net figure being unchanged. The seller may verbally agree to lower the reserve price during the auction process. If a vehicle is checked into the auction and does not cross the action block to be offered for sale I agree to pay the sale commission in full plus Buyer's Fee on the stated reserve price unless specific written authorization is obtained from Silver Auctions waiving these fees.
