These Terms and Conditions of Sale may be subject to individual item or lot bid conditions, as published together with a catalogue, on our Web site, and/or in a notice at the sale venue, if applicable. The Terms and Conditions of Sale and all contents of the catalogue, as may be amended by posted notices or oral announcements made during the sale, constitute the entire Terms and Conditions of Sale for which property is offered for sale or sold by Auction House and any consignor of such property for whom we act as agent.

SECTION II: PRE-SALE TERMS 2.1. Right of Refusal. Auction House reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. Auction House has the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any auction. 2.2. Items Sold "As Is, Where Is". All items or lots are sold "AS IS, WHERE IS."

ALL SALES ARE FINAL. WE DO NOT ACCEPT RETURNS OR GRANT REFUNDS. 2.3. Burden on Bidder to Inspect Items Prior to Bidding. Prospective Bidders should inspect the lot prior to bidding to determine its condition, size and other considerations. Descriptions of items appearing in advertising are believed to be correct and true, and condition reports for each lot are usually available upon request as a courtesy to buyers. Neither Karbury's nor the seller provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the property. The Auction House is not responsible for any errors or omissions. The Auction House will assert best effort to provide additional information and images to prospective Bidders if requested, necessary, and available. In any case as a condition report is subjective, the Auction House neither guarantee nor imply that no other defects may be present that have not been stated; more so, an absence of condition report does not imply that there are no defects or restorations on a lot. Descriptions or any oral statements made by the Auction House or its representatives concerning any item shall not be construed as a warranty, either expressed or implied. Our printed materials (e.g. partial catalogs, Catalogs, or advertisements) are meant merely as a guide, not a guarantee. All statements contained in the catalog or in any bill of sale, condition report, invoice or elsewhere as to authorship, period, culture, source, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, provenance, importance, exhibition and literature of historical relevance, or physical condition ARE QUALIFIED STATEMENTS OF OPINION AND NOT REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES.

PROSPECTIVE BIDDERS ARE STRONGLY ADVISED TO EXAMINE PERSONALLY ANY PROPERTY IN WHICH THEY ARE INTERESTED BEFORE THE AUCTION TAKES PLACE. Some items can be large and/or heavy and can be dangerous if mishandled;should you handle any items for viewing on our premises you do so at your own risk.We reserve the right to refuse Bidder Previews to any person at any time in our sole and exclusive discretion. 2.5. Condition Disclaimer. Karbury's Auction House strives to catalog every lot correctly and will attempt to point out any defects, but Auction House shall bear no responsibility for any error or omission. All counts, weights and measurements are approximate. Any condition report given, as a courtesy to a client, is only an opinion and should not be treated as a statement of fact. Condition reports are available upon request. The absence of a condition statement does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. All lots are sold "As is." No statement regarding age, attribution, condition, genre, type, value, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, or in writing in this catalog or elsewhere, shall be construed to be an express or implied warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. All collection sold by Karbury's Auction House is assumed to be "after", "school of", "manner of", or "circle of " and will carry no warranties or guarantees as to authorship or authenticity whether stated or imputed by other parts of this agreement. Buyers are strongly encouraged to conduct their due diligence before bidding. No refunds will be given. Ignorance of terms, regrets, or mistakes by buyer is no excuse to bring action against the auction house or consignor. 2.6. Pre-Sale Estimates. As a convenience to our purchasers, we furnish pre-sale estimates for all materials included in the auctions. These estimates are approximate valuations only and are not to be construed as prices. Bidding normally begins at about one-half the low estimate, but the final bid price may well be less than or more than any estimates printed. We reserve the right to determine the bidding value on any item to start the bidding. SECTION III: BIDDING, TERMS OF SALE 3.1. Right of Withdraw. Auction House reserve the right to withdraw any property before the sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. We also reserve right to divide and combine lots at any time before such property's auction. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog and no lots shall be divided or combined for sale 3.2. Reserves. All lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is a confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold,and is agreed to between Auction House and the seller. Auctioneer has the right to bid on behalf of the seller, whether by opening bidding on any lot below the reserve or the auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the reserve amount, either by placing consecutive bids or placing bids in response to other bidders. If the reserve amount is not met, the Auction House has the right to withdraw the item from the sale. If Auction House has an interest in an offered lot and the proceeds thereof other than our commissions, we may bid therefrom to protect such interest. With respect to lots offered without reserve, the Auctioneer has sole discretion to determine opening bid amount. CONSIGNORS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BID ON THEIR OWN ITEMS. SHILL BIDDING IS STRICTLY NOT ALLOWED AND SHALL NOT BE TOLERATED. 3.3. Registration Required. All Bidders are required to register pursuant to the Account Guidelines set forth in the general Web site Terms and Conditions.

As a service to those wishing to place bids, we will accept absentee or proxy bids without charge in our sole and exclusive discretion. Absentee bids are accepted by Auction House discretion. The absentee bidding form or online request must be received at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance of the auction. Absentee bids must state the maximum bid the Bidder is willing to pay. In the event that identical bids are submitted, the earliest bid received will take precedence; however to avoid this possibility, Bidder may authorize Auction House to increase a bid by one increment (by placing a plus (+1) beside the maximum bid for the item). In the event a Bidder has authorized incremental bidding, it shall be executed in competition with other Bidders and applicable to any reserve. If an absentee bid is received for item with a reserve, the auctioneer is authorized to open bidding at or consecutively bid to that reserve where the authorized maximum bid amount meet or exceed reserve. Auction House will not be held responsible or liable for absentee bids that are missed or otherwise not executed. Cancellation of any absentee bids must be received in writing at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the start of the auction. 3.6. Telephone Bids.

Cancellation of any telephone bids must be received in writing at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the start of the auction. 3.7. Right of Refusal. We reserve the right to reject a bid from any Bidder, to split any bidding increment, to advance the bidding in any manner the auctioneer may decide, and to refuse bids in the best interest of the Auction House. In the event of any dispute between Bidders, or in the event the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and absolute discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sales records shall be conclusive in all respects. 3.8. Purchase, Hammer Price.

All lots are to be paid for by cash, wire transfer, or major credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express). Whenever the purchaser pays only a part of the total purchase price for one or more lots purchased, we may apply such payments, in our sole discretion, to the lot or lots we choose.
