FIRST ANNUAL
“YOUNG COLLECTORS-OLE GUNNERS AUCTION”
This will be a timed online-only event, starting to close
SUNDAY MARCH 29 @ 5PM EASTERN
The main focus of this auction event is to give young-new collectors, just getting started in the
hobby, the opportunity to purchase moderately priced, attractive decoys for their collections. Or, to
give the seasoned collector-hunter the opportunity to purchase by-the-pair, or by-the-rig, larger
than normal lots of decoys to be used in their hunting rigs.
For the most part, all lots will contain a minimum of a pair, and in some cases, as many as (10)
decoys in a lot (or rig).
Shipping/Delivery/In-House Pick Up: While we hope, that most everyone will take advantage of
either our complimentary delivery or in-house pick up, it is important that we note: Items not
delivered (on the delivery route or to a show/meeting) or picked up at one of our (2) scheduled in-
house pick up dates---yet the purchaser still intends to “Pick up” and not have them shipped, we
can only hold lots for (30) days, from the date of the auction. Any items left after this auction event
for more than (30) days will be considered forfeited, resold, and the proceeds from that sale donated
to charity. We will be offering, with this First Annual Event, our complimentary delivery service to
Annapolis, Wye Mills, Cambridge, and Salisbury MD. We will run the same times as always.
Purchasers who want items shipped, please note: Each item will be placed in a bubble bag, boxed,
and topped off with peanuts, and shipped. Each item will not be wrapped in layers and layers of
bubble wrap as we do in normal shipments—(This process applies to this “Young Collectors-Ole
Gunners” Auction Event only).
In closing, we are excited to see more young folks become interested in this hobby. Likewise, there
are those of you who want to use the older traditional method of wooden decoys in your hunting
rigs, just as our forefathers did—this auction will offer each of you a new opportunity, and we are
extremely pleased to have coined this idea and trust you will enjoy it. Post-auction, we will assess
the results, hear constructive input, likes, dislikes, and suggestions for change. Sales results, and
your input, will be carefully considered to determine if we will plan a similar event this Fall, prior
to the 2026 duck hunting season. Zeb B. Barfield, Inc. Sportsman’s Auctions, is a unique company.
We are unmatched by any other auction firm in terms of customer service, and custom-tailored
events that meet the needs of discriminating collectors seeking fine collector items as well as more
moderately-priced items for those just starting their collecting hobby.

BUYERS WHO DO NOT OR CANNOT TAKE POSSESSION OF THE ITEM THEY PURCHASE: If a bidder is unable to receive an item purchased because he/she is denied transfer of a firearm under legal restriction, or is unable to successfully arrange export or import of an international purchase, or for any other reason not solely the fault of ZBB Inc, the buyer is still responsible for payment in full for the hammer price plus applicable buyer's premium. The buyer may request shipment at the buyer's expense to an FFL dealer to resell a gun on the buyer's behalf. If buyer does not notify ZBB Inc of such arrangements within 10 days of the auction date, ZBB Inc may resell the lot at a future auction, charging the buyer a 30% seller’s commission for doing so.
TAKING POSSESSION OF YOUR FIREARM: Anyone who purchases a firearm from ZBB Inc will fill out a 4473 and undergo a NICS check. Buyers may choose their FFL dealer and have it shipped to them. If the individual purchasing the firearm is NOT the FFL dealer, the dealer must provide a shipping address to have the item sent to, as well as the name of the individual who they will be transferring the item to. If your firearm falls under the C&R classification, please provide us with proper documentation that you are a collector of such items via email. Please email all FFL's and C&R's to zeb@zebsauctions.com. No paperwork/background check required for FFL holders
NONTRANSFER OF FIREARM: Any firearm that is made prior to 1898 AND does not fire modern ammunition is considered an antique and does not require a background check and/or transfer. If the auction company does not disclose on a specific item that said item does not require a transfer, and the buyer believes that it does NOT require a transfer, it is the responsibility of the BUYER to provide the auction firm with documented proof that the item 1) is made prior to 1898 and 2) does not fire modern ammunition. If each of those items are not met, the firearm will undergo a transfer, absolutely NO exceptions. ANY firearm with a visible serial number will be subject to transfer unless documentation is provided to ZBB Inc by the buyer that said firearm falls under the antique classification.
AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, FIREARMS ARE A SENSITIVE SUBJECT, AND WE APPRECIATE EVERYONES COOPERATION TO KEEP ALL TRANSACTIONS 100% LEGAL AND IN ACCORDANCE TO ALL RESTRICTIONS AND REGULATIONS SET FORTH BY THE BUREAU OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, AND FIREARMS.
