Q: |
"Does everything function as intended? The pictures do not show much detail, do all of the features work / no visible damage? Is there help on site with loading?" - Asked by #47720429 02/11/2025 10:25 PM |
A: |
The simulator is a prototype. It needs software and possibly hardware updates. As such, any replacement parts or software from Redbird will not work in the sim because they aren’t compatible with the prototype. There is no physical damage to anything. All the hardware is included. The Buyer assumes all responsibility for disassembly (which will be required to get it out of the room). There is no working elevator in the building, so all parts will need to be taken down a set of stairs.

"So this unit doesn't work and the software is not available to make it work?" - Asked by #42227827 02/12/2025 08:27 PM |
A: |
The unit would need software updates in order to function, however, software from Redbird will not work because they aren’t compatible with this prototype.

"Just so I understand correctly,this unit will never work again because it was a prototype, with no working software that can provided by the vendor? And potentially hardware issues as well. And it needs to be fully taken apart and moved down a flight of stairs, with an estimated weight of 3,000LB, with the buyer 100% responsible? I would think all of this should be in the "item description" as it is rather deceiving to bidders as this is an unusable unit, that has zero manufacture support. If all of the above is correct than this unit will never function again and is worth scrap value only? " - Asked by #47720429 02/14/2025 11:09 AM |
A: |
Correct on all accounts. This information has been added to the description.

Q: |
"I have a connection at Redbird I would need the exact model number and any other pertinent information is that possible can someone call me My phone number is 908-268-2962 and my name is Steven" - Asked by #70809302 02/17/2025 04:17 PM |
A: |
That is the correct model number. It is serial number 2.

Q: |
"Could you please confirm that this system is in a condition where it could be fully operated With the software and hardware update updates? " - Asked by #72076374 02/24/2025 08:59 AM |
A: |
Software and hardware updates from Redbird will not work because they aren’t compatible with this prototype.

Our Buyers Fees
With Municibid, pricing is clear, up-front and transparent. A buyer's fee (% of the winning bid amount) will be charged directly to the winning bidder upon the close of each auction via the credit card you entered prior to placing the bid. You pay the selling agency directly for the full cost of the item. (unless otherwise noted)
All Buyers fee's are aggregate unless otherwise noted. This means after you cross certain price thresholds you will pay a different buyers fee for the remaining amount. See below for an example.
Example:
If buyers fee is 8% for bids up to $99,999.99, 5% for bids $100,000 - $499,999.99, and 4% for bids over $500,000.
- Winning bid: $50,000: = Buyers fee: $4,000 (8% of $50,000).
- Winning bid: $150,000: = Buyers fee: $10,500 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + (5% of $50,000 = $2,500).
- Winning bid: $550,000: = Buyers fee: $30,000 (8% of $100,000 = $8,000) + 5% of $400,000 = $20,000) + (4% of $50,000 = $2,000).
Where can I see what the buyers fee is?
The current buyers fee will always be shown on the page of the listing under the current price in both the bid area and auction details area. You will also see the buyers fee amount you will pay for your entered bid on the page where you confirm your bid.
What if the selling agency rejects my bid?
If the government agency rejects your bid (they reserve the right to do so) your buyer's fee will be returned, in full, to you within 5 days of notification to Municibid of the rejected bid by the governing body.
