1. Lots will open at 80% of the estimates stated in the catalogue. No bids
under this limit will be accepted.
2. Goods subject to sale in the margin: the hammer price is the basis for the
calculation of the buyer´s premium. Buyers from Germany and EUcountries
will be charged a premium of 23%; the relevant VAT is already
included in this amount. Buyers from countries outside the EU will be
charged a premium of 17,5%. As far as these buyers export the goods in
person or by a third party the relevant VAT will be charged but refunded
after receiving the legal proof of exportation. In case that we export the
goods the relevant VAT will not be charged. Bidders are responsible for
respecting customs laws of the countries of destination of the lots.

as such. For details regarding buyer´s premium and taxes please see the
conditions of sale at the end of the catalogue.
