The only exception being, in the case of a deliberate forgery specifically represented as authentic by the auctioneer. In this event the purchaser must notify the auctioneer in writing within 7 business days after the auction, that said lot is a forgery, and return the lot in the condition it was sold. Due to our policy of paying consignors within 7 business days, these conditions must be met completely for a refund to be considered. The Auctioneer reserves the sole right to settle disputed bids, and to decide, or not, to re offer the lot. The record of the sale will be taken as final in the event of any dispute.
Some lots carry reserves, or minimum selling prices.
This is a figure set by the consignor and the auction house under which the lot will not be sold. The auction house will execute the reserves. The lot will carry a presale estimate, the reserve will not exceed the low estimate. Regardless of reserves, the auctioneer may reject any bid, or raise, not commensurate with the value of the lot. Absentee bids will be accepted as a convenience to our customers, but the auctioneer will not be held responsible for errors, or failure to execute bids.
