TERMS OF SALE BY AUCTION
All purchases will be paid in cash.
In addition to the hammer price, buyers will pay the following
fees and taxes by item: 25 % tax included.
All foreign fees for wire transfer will be charged on the buyer.
The buyers will be charged additional fees for foreign credit
cards of 1.20%. No foreign check will be accepted.
The successful bidder will be the highest and last bidder and must
pay cash. In the event of a dispute, the Auctioneer has the right to
cancel the sale and put the dispotued lot(s) back up for auction.
EXHIBITION VIEWING
A pre-auction viewing allows bidders to ascertain the condition
of the sale items. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to
examine personally any goods in which they are interested,
before the auction takes place. Condition reports are usually
available on request and remain subject to the personal
appreciation of the prospective buyer. All lots are therefore sold
in their condition at the moment of the sale. No claims will
therefore be accepted after the hammer has fallen.
NECESSARY CONDITIONS TO BID
The order of the sale will be that of the catalogue. Attributions
are based on scientific and artistic knowledge at the time of the
sale. Sizes are given only for your information. If the purchaser
fails to abide by the aforementioned obligations, the lot(s)
concerned may be put back up for auction during the same
session or during a subsequent session, at the purchaser’s own
risk.
BUYING ORDERS AND TELEPHONE BIDS
It is possible for a bidder unable to attend the auction to fill out
the buying-order form appended to this catalogue. The auctioneer
shall act on the behalf of the bidder, in accordance with the
instructions stated in the buying-order form.
A buying order is a service designed to help customers by the
Auctioneer, who shall not be held responsible for failing to
execute an order by mistake or for any other reason, if a
telephone link is interrupted, cannot be made or is delayed.
The auctioneer is ready to accept the requests for telephone
bidding until the end of the pre-sale exhibition, but shall not be
held liable for any failure to execute a telephone bid due to error
or omission.
The auctioneer reserves the right to record any telephone bidding.
COLLECTION OF PURCHASES
As soon as the hammer goes down, the lot is under the
responsibility of the purchaser.
Buyers are advised to collect their purchases promptly, within a
month, so as to avoid storage costs. No purchase shall be handed
over by the auctioneer to a purchaser before a complete payment
of the auction price and sales costs, and handling and storage
costs. For payment by check buyers are advised that property will
not be released until such check have been collected.
The purchaser is responsible for having his/her purchases
insured, and the Auctioneer shall accept no responsibility for any
damage sustained by the lot after the hammer has gone down.

Cash (maximum 1000 Euros for resident in France) check (only
