ONE NIGHT FOR ONE DROP
SILENT AUCTIONS - CONDITIONS OF SALE
All items are sold subject to Conditions of Sale printed below and specific terms and conditions printed with each item.
- Each lot available for the silent auction is offered for sale and sold subject to: (a) these Conditions of Sale; and (b) additional terms and conditions printed with each silent auction item. By purchasing a lot, bidders and buyers are deemed to have read, understood, accepted and expressly agree to be bound by these Conditions of Sale.
- Buyers may claim a charitable contribution deduction when the silent auction item price is over the fair market value, but such deduction will be limited to the excess of the silent auction item price paid for the lot over its fair market value. A tax receipt will be sent to the buyer after the event. In accordance with applicable IRS regulations, One Drop has provided a good faith estimate of the fair market value of each lot. One Drop bears no liability for such estimate.
- Illustrations of the lots are for guidance only. All lots are sold as is with all faults and imperfections and errors of description. In no event shall One Drop be responsible for the condition of the lots or the correctness of any description of lots. All warranties, express or implied, including any warranty of satisfactory quality and fitness for purpose, are specifically excluded by One Drop to the fullest extent permitted by law.
- If a buyer present at the event is acting as agent on behalf of a third party, One Drop must be informed in writing prior to the event of the identity of such third party and provide its written approval.
- When making a purchase, a buyer accepts personal liability to pay the selling price, plus all applicable sales taxes, if any, and other charges unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with One Drop before the sale that the buyer is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to One Drop and that One Drop will only look to the principal for such payment.
- By submitting a bid through the GiveSmart platform, the bidder acknowledges and agrees that each bid constitutes a binding and irrevocable offer to purchase the item at the stated bid amount. If the bidder is the highest bidder at the close of the silent auction, a binding contract for sale is automatically formed between One Drop Foundation Inc. and the bidder, without the need for any further action or signature. The winning bidder is obligated to complete the purchase in accordance with these terms.
- Buyers are required to pay the full purchase price by no later than 2:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on April 3, 2026, unless stipulated otherwise in the terms and conditions printed with each silent auction item.

- One Drop will not accept any cancellations from buyers and will not refund any amounts paid in respect of the lots. Purchases that are subject to future fulfilment, such as travel or entertainment items, depend on the schedules of both the buyer and the donors of the lots. One Drop is not responsible if mutually agreeable times and locations cannot be reached.
- If the buyer fails to make payment of the purchase price for a lot in cleared funds by 2:00 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on April 3, 2026, unless stipulated otherwise in the terms and conditions printed with each item, One Drop may in its sole discretion cancel the sale of the lot, retain any partial payment of the purchase price as liquidated damages for One Drop and take such other actions as One Drop deems necessary or appropriate.
