Conditions of sale
The auction sale occurs by upward bidding in euro. To the hammer price a buyer’s commission will be added of 23% and 1.75 euro for every bought lot. Lots are assigned to the highest bidder. In case of obtaining a lot through our live-bidsale a buyer’s commission of 26% (instead of 23%) and 1.75 euro for every bought lot will be added to the hammerprice.
In case of two even bids the concerning lot will be assigned to the first received bid. Please notice: bids below the starting price will NOT be accepted.
The auction sale takes place with increasing steps as follows: up to 40 euro with 2 or 3 euro, from 40 to 100 euro with 5 euro, from 100 to 300 euro with 10 euro, from 300 to 400 euro with 20 euro, and from 400 to 1000 with 25 euro and above 1000 euro with 50 euro, and so on. The auctioneer has the right to deviate from these amounts. Starting prices in the catalogue described as ‘bod’ have a minimum of 5 euro.
During and after the auction lots bought can be taken along by the purchaser. This is possible after direct payment (cash or bank) or after permission of the auctioneer to wire the amount within an agreed period. Payment with creditcard is also possible, the auctioneer will charge 5% extra to the invoice due to bankcosts. Cheques are not accepted. Every bidder is considered to buy for him- or herself and can never be entitled ‘in-betweens’ without responsibility.
Ownership of the lots remains with the seller until payment has been done in full. Buyer’s risk is valid from the moment of knock-down.
All lots are sold as viewed. Authenticity of every single lot (or lots with no more than 2 pieces) is guaranteed.
All disputes during or after the auction are decided by a present supervisor. All parties are subject to his/her pronouncement. Any disputes followed by legal actions will be handled according to the conditions as deposited at the Court of Law in Utrecht under no. 383/1999 (15/11/1999).
