12.7. Competing Online and Onsite Bids. In the event of contemporaneously made online and onsite bids, 
Auctioneer will determine which bid is the successful bid, and the bid made at the Auction Site will generally take precedence.
12.8. Records of Online Sales. The record of sale kept by Auctioneer will be conclusive and final in all disputes, 
and otherwise. In the event of a discrepancy between any online records or messages provided to a Registered Bidder 
bidding online and the record of sale kept by Auctioneer, Auctioneer's record of sale will govern.

until the Fall of the Hammer or until maximum amount of the Absentee Bid is reached, whichever occurs first. Auctioneer will 
make all reasonable efforts to execute Absentee Bids, but active bidding by Bidders in attendance at the Auction may render 
the execution of an Absentee Bid impracticable. Neither Auctioneer not Seller will have any liability to an Absentee Bidder for 
the failure to execute an Absentee Bid. Each Absentee Bidder acknowledges and agrees that Property may be sold to 
another Bidder for the maximum amount of the Absentee Bid based on a bidding sequence that causes another Bidder to 
reach the such amount first. If the execution of an Absentee Bid at its maximum amount would require Auctioneer to accept a 
bid that is less than a full bidding increment, Auctioneer has the sole and absolute discretion to accept or reject such bid. An 
Absentee Bidder may authorize Auctioneer to advance the bid by one or more bidding increments after the maximum amount 
of the Absentee Bid is, or would be, reached.
14. Bid Increments. Bid increments are established and controlled by Auctioneer, and may be adjusted or modified in 
Auctioneer's sole and absolute discretion.

bids in person, telephonically, electronically, or by other means.
18. Separately Deeded Parcels. If the Real Property consists of two or more separately deeded parcels, Auctioneer 
may, in Auctioneer’s discretion, put the parcels up for bid individually, as an entire group, and by various combinations, and 
the bids received by each method will be held until it is determined which method yields the highest aggregate Purchase 
Price. Bidding may be conducted in multiple rounds, and in a round robin fashion, and methods or combinations may be 
eliminated until the final method or grouping yielding the highest aggregate Purchase Price is determined.
19. Conduct of the Auction. Auctioneer will regulate all matters relating to the conduct of the Auction and Auctioneer’s 
decision will be final and binding. Auctioneer will have control over bidding at the Auction, and Auctioneer will resolve any 
and all disputes. If (i) a bid is made while the hammer is falling in acceptance of a prior bid, or (ii) promptly after the Fall of
