ATTENTION ALL BIDDERS – VERY MPORTANT REMINDER:

This Auction is being conducted on behalf of the Palm Beach County Housing Authority (“PBCHA”) which is regulated by THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT. As a qualified registered bidder, you will sign your acknowledgement that you agree to the General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

I bring to your attention Item 6 (d) which states the following within the General Terms and Conditions of Sale: Competitive bidding is an essential element of an Online Auction sale, and such a sale should be conducted fairly and openly with full and free opportunity for competition among bidders. Any conduct, artifice, agreement, or combination the purpose and effect of which is to stifle fair competition and chill the bidding, is against public policy and will cause the sale to be set aside. Collusion / Bid Rigging is a Federal Felony punishable by imprisonment and fine. Auctioneer will report all illegal conduct to the F.B.I. and cooperate with any prosecution.  

Collusion / Bid Rigging is when individuals, corporations, non-profits, and even governmental agencies etc. have communications with one another to not bid against each other in consideration of making side deals. Again, as stated above, this is a Federal Felony and if the PBCHA and Fisher Auction Company suspects such activity is occurring, they will report this illegal activity to all proper agencies.
