Attribution, date, condition and other descriptions are the opinion of the auctioneer. No warranty is expressed or implied. Please note that an auction sale is not an approval sale. Lots examined prior to the sale may not be returned for any reason except lack of authenticity. All claims of misdescription and all claims of return, except claims regarding authenticity, must be made within 5 days of receipt of material. Any claim of lack of authenticity must be made in writing by the original purchaser immediately after discovery that an item is not authentic, and upon making such a claim the original purchaser must immediately return the lot to the auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the auction. Invoices are due and payable in euros immediately upon receipt. Bidders personally guarantee payment for their successful bids, including bidders executing commission bids from other parties and bidders representing corporations or other entities. Interest and late fees of 2% per month from the date of the auction shall be payable on invoices not settled within 30 days of the auction date. Payment may be made by cash or bank wire. The auctioneer may reduce or compromise any charge or fee at its discretion. Title does not pass until lots are paid in full. Upon receipt of lots, the buyer assumes full responsibility for loss or damage. Delivery to the buyer’s address of record constitutes receipt by the buyer regardless of the identity of the person accepting delivery. It is the responsibility of the buyer to comply with foreign customs and other regulations.

The bidder further agrees that in any litigation or other proceeding based upon, arising out of or related to these terms and conditions, he shall pay to the auctioneer its attorney fees and other expenses and costs incurred in connection with the litigation or other proceeding if the auctioneer is the prevailing party.
