www.gobid.es indicating the development dates and the catalogue of the lots.
4. Development of the Auctions. Each Auction shall be published on the website
www.gobid.es according to the terms and conditions indicated in the General and Specific Conditions. GOBID ESPAÑA SL reserves the right to cancel, extend or interrupt the Auction at its own discretion.
The registered user expressly consents to and accepts all problems and conflicts, both objective and subjective, that may arise from the use of an Auction conducted online, and declares to hold GOBID ESPAÑA SL harmless from any loss or damage caused as a result thereof.
Any liability of GOBID ESPAÑA SL for damages or losses caused to the registered user directly and/or indirectly is excluded, limiting such liability solely to cases in which there is wilful misconduct or gross negligence.
GOBID ESPAÑA SL shall in no way be liable for the user's own actions that cause damage, malfunction, incorrect display and/or improper use of the website
www.gobid.es, whether prior to, simultaneous with or subsequent to the auction process.
In all matters not provided for in the general conditions, the provisions contained in the terms of use of the website
www.gobid.es shall apply.
5. Participation in the Auctions.The user registered on the page
www.gobid.es shall be required to register for each Auction by accepting the General Conditions and the Specific Conditions in order to participate.
If a deposit is required to participate in the Auction, the registered user shall not be authorised to participate without prior authorisation from GOBID ESPAÑA SL. Authorisation shall be granted by GOBID ESPAÑA SL only once the deposit has been received. The methods of payment of the deposit shall be indicated in the Specific Conditions of the Auction.
Users who have participated in the procedure but have not been awarded any asset shall receive their deposit back within 20 business days following the conclusion of the Auction, without interest.
Users who participate in the auction and are awarded one or more than one lot shall receive their deposit once they have collected the purchased assets, settled any costs for ancillary services and completed the acquisition of the assets purchased at auction through the handling of the bureaucratic procedures provided for in the sale and always with prior authorisation from the Principal. In these cases the deposit may be deducted from any costs that may be generated as ancillary services, as well as from other costs at the Principal's discretion.
If the purchaser has paid the deposit by debit/credit card, GOBID ESPAÑA SL shall proceed with the refund by bank transfer once the collection of the assets has been carried out and the acquisition has been completed as set out in the previous paragraph.
The deposit shall be retained in the event of breach of the general payment terms for the awarded lots.
6. Submission of bids.Bids intended to acquire the lots published on the platform may be placed by users registered and authorised to participate in the Auction and shall be collected within each lot page present on
www.gobid.es.
Bids shall always be binding to the verification of the indicated prices and the increment conditions.
GOBID SPAIN SL reserves the possibility of canceling any bid in the event that inconsistencies are found between the General Conditions and the Specific Conditions thereof.
Bids can be of two types, static or dynamic (proxy bid):
A simple static bid is considered a fixed-price bid.
A maximum dynamic bid (proxy bid) is considered a dynamic-price bid per lot, not visible to other users.
When a registered user enters a static bid, it may be outbid by a bid from other users. In this case, the user will be required to enter another static bid in order to be awarded the lot.
If the registered user enters a maximum bid (proxy bid), it will be held valid until it is outbid by a bid from other users that is higher than the established maximum bid. The increments will be automatic and will be based on the indicated minimum values, with a view to outbidding the other bids submitted up to the maximum amount entered.
Bids will be accepted until the date and time of completion indicated for the specific Auction. If bids are registered in the last 5 minutes, the deadline for placing bids will be extended by a period established in the Specific Conditions of each Auction.
6.1 Auction without minimum price In the case of auctions without a minimum price, the user may offer an amount equal to the indicated amount or increase it by the recommended minimum increment through the corresponding sliders, or may enter the amount they wish to offer.
Bids placed will be considered irrevocable.
When a user submits a bid, it may be outbid by a bid from other users. In this case, the user will have to submit a new static bid to become the best bidder and compete for the award of the lot.
7. Award of lots.At the end of each auction, the provisional award phase of the lots will begin. This phase will last a maximum of 48 working hours, unless otherwise established in the Specific Conditions. In this phase, a provisional award confirmation will be sent to the highest bidder. GOBID SPAIN SL reserves the right to interrupt or cancel the auction or the award of the lots before the end of the auction at its unquestionable discretion.
The award is subject to receipt of the deposit (if provided).
If the provisional successful bidder fails to comply with the obligations set out in the established terms, the award will be made in favor of the bidder who made the next best bid, and so on.
Bids placed are binding and constitute a formal commitment to purchase.
8. Payment.The registered user awarded one or more lots is obliged to respect the Specific Conditions of the Auction, where the payment terms, collection and indemnity clauses in case of non-compliance will be specified. If payment of the amounts due is not completed within the established terms, the sale will be automatically deemed concluded. The user will lose the deposit (if provided), which will be retained as compensation with consequent forfeiture of the award, in agreement with the Principal. The existence of any damage detected after collection of the awarded lots will be entirely borne by the buyer.
9. GuaranteesAny liability of GOBID SPAIN SL relating to the existence of total or partial error in the descriptions of the lots present for sale is excluded. For each Auction, its own Specific Conditions will be published, detailing the specific information thereof and of its lots.
