April 4th at 9am until 8th at 4pm
Please make sure you READ THE RULES, particularly the part about credit card authorizations. In short, each time you place a bid, the system places a hold authorization for that amount on your card. When you are outbid, the hold is released. If you bid $50 on ten different items, this means $500 of your available balance will be unavailable until you're outbid. Any winning bids at the end of the auction are captured - meaning your card is charged. We recommend you use a credit card, not a debit card for this auction. A released hold may take several days to reflect on your statement. IMPORTANT: If you are viewing this from a Mobile Device, please swipe left on items to see all details or view in landscape mode.

2.) Bidding
i.) Location and Dates
This is an internet-only auction, operating on http://www.tbnewswatch.com
This auction commences at 9:00am on Monday, April 4th, 2022 and concludes at 4:00pm on Friday, April 8, 2022.
ii.) Bidding Mechanics
Bidding requires being logged in to a registered Tbnewswatch.com user account. Tbnewswatch accounts are free and can be created here: www.tbnewswatch.com/account
To place a bid on an item: 1. Enter at least the minimum bid amount specified. 2. Enter your credit card information to pay for the item (see iv. below). 3. Check off the anonymous box if you wish to bid anonymously, otherwise your Tbnewswatch account username will be displayed publicly in the list of winning bids. 4. Finally, check off the "confirm bid" box to confirm the information entered is correct, and then click "Bid". This will place an authorized hold on your credit card as specified in section iv below.
CKPR Thunder Bay is/are not responsible for any bids that are lost, misdirected, incomplete or illegible, or for failed, partial or garbled computer transmissions, or for technical failures of any kind including, but not limited to, malfunctioning of any network, hardware or software, which may limit a bidder’s ability to participate in Producer Auction. Proof of sending will not be proof of receipt by Producer Auction. The Producer Auction is not responsible for any online, long distance telephone, or other charges you may incur in connection with participating in Producer Auction
In the event you are outbid by someone, you will be notified by email automatically.
The highest bid on each item, provided the reserve price (if set) was met, will be declared the winner of the item.
You must be prepared to pay for any item you commit to buying. A hold/authorization will be placed on your credit card for your bid amount. The hold will be captured (charged) on any winning bids at the end of the auction. Non-winning bids will have their holds released, which may take up to a week to be reflected on your statement. Make sure you read the description and understand what the item is before placing a bid.
Bidders can bid multiple times on the same item over the course of the auction in an effort to achieve the highest bid. Bidders can bid on multiple items (although some retailers may have restrictions on the number of winning gift cards that can be used per transaction). Every bid placed could potentially be the winning bid, so please, participate carefully and mindfully. Every bid placed is binding and constitutes a legal agreement from the bidder to TBay Post Inc.. to purchase the item for the bid amount entered by the bidder.
iii.) Retraction
You can only retract a bid if it is obvious to TBay Post Inc.. that the bid was erroneous, like if you meant to bid $50 but bid $500 on a $100 item. If this occurs, please contact us immediately at platformsupport@tbnewswatch.com or call 1-807-346-2648.
iv.) Credit Cards - Authorized Holds and Collection
*** WE RECOMMEND YOU DO NOT USE A DEBIT CARD. Because funds are placed on hold each time you bid, this makes this amount inaccessible in your account. Use a credit card instead.
Bidding on an item requires you to provide a valid credit card, which a winning bid amount will be charged to at the conclusion of the auction. Placing a bid will authorize a transaction on your credit card and place a hold in that amount on the card for up to one week. Subsequent bids on the same item will supercede and replace that authorized hold on the card.
Bids on separate items will result in multiple authorized holds on the credit card -- one for each of those bid amounts. It is important to note that an authorized hold on a credit card reduces your available credit. For example, bidding $50 on ten different items will result in ten $50 holds placed on the card, for a total of $500.
An authorized hold will be removed from your card if and when you are outbid on that item.
Winning bid amounts will be charged to credit cards at the conclusion of the auction, and all outstanding authorized holds will be removed.
v.) Conclusion
Within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction, all winning bids will be processed. Winners will be notified by email, and the winning bid amounts will be charged to the credit cards provided.
3.) Pick up
At the conclusion of the auction, winning bidders will be notified of any items they have won. This email will include instructions for the pick up of the item(s).
All winning bidders will be required to complete a release form upon collecting their item(s) to confirm delivery of said item(s).
All current COVID-19 Protocols will be followed.
