All visitors who wish to participate must read and acknowledge receipt of these policies and procedures (along with any auction rules that may be presented) prior to the start of the first auction in which they wish to participate, and MMS reserves the right to ban anyone found to be in violation of any of these policies and procedures from current and future auctions at any of its facilities without notice and in MMS' sole discretion.
