The highest bidder shall be the buyer and if any dispute arises between two or more bidders, the auction coordinator shall decide the buyer, or to re-offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, Tenga Gallery's sale record will be conclusive. Although Tenga Gallery will execute order or absentee bids, as a convenience to clients who are not present at auctions, Tenga Gallery is not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection therewith. 9. Record of Sale: The record of sale, posted on Tenga Gallery Live Auctions, will be taken as absolute and final in all disputes. 10. Reserve Price: All the lots are offered subject to a reserve. A reserve is a confidential minimum price below which such a lot will not be sold. Tenga Gallery will act to protect the reserve by bidding through the auctioneer. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller and may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the reserve. This may be done by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. After a lot has been auctioned, but has failed to sell because it has not reached the reserve, Tenga Gallery, at its discretion, may reveal the reserve the prospective post-sale purchasers. 11. Estimates: Catalogue descriptions of each lot generally include an estimated range of prices, within which Tenga Gallery estimates the lot may sell. These estimates tend to be much lower than our approximate valuations. They should not be taken as comparable auction values, or as "prices." These estimates are made before the sale and are sometimes revised before the sale. Pre-sale estimates do not include the buyer's premium or applicable state/local taxes and other expenses. 12. Inquiries: All inquiries regarding lots must be sent directly to the Tenga Gallery via email and received 24 hours prior to the start of the auction. 13. Copyrights: The copyright in the text of the catalogue, our websites http://www.8tiger.com and http://www.2ezr.com, photographs, and illustrations of lots contained in the catalogue and websites belong to us. No one is allowed to reproduce or permit anyone else to reproduce such text, photographs, or illustrations without our prior written consent. 14. Withdrawal Prior to Sale: Tenga Gallery reserves the right to withdraw any property before the sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. If the auctioneer decides that any opening bid is not commensurate with the article offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the article from the sale, and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, the auctioneer may, in his sole discretion, reject the advance. 15. Condition: All property is sold "as is". All sales are final. Neither Tenga Gallery, the auctioneer, nor any consignors makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, or description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability. Absolutely no sales shall be cancelled due to age estimate, condition issues, or whether or not they are expressed in the condition report. 16. Items Description: As a service to prospective purchasers, Tenga Gallery may estimate the age and describe the physical condition of certain lots included in the catalogue. These reports are only the opinion of Tenga Gallery. Whether or not additional damages, repairs, restorations or other defects are described for certain lots, does not mean that all defects to such lots are described or that similar conditions do not exist with respect to other lots although not noted. Such descriptions are not intended to negate the conditions of sale included in this catalogue. All items in the catalog are sold as described by Tenga Gallery. The description, age estimate, and condition reports are only an opinion of Tenga Gallery. No statement regarding age, condition, kind, value or quality of a lot shall be construed to be an expressed or implied warranty, representation or assumption of liability by Tenga Gallery. Discrepancies of description shall be decided by mutually agreed upon experts whose determination must be in writing and is at the expense of the Buyer. Items are ascribed to given artists, age, and origins only upon exercise of Tenga Gallery's best judgment or that of an outside expert. No unqualified statement as to authorship is made. Tenga Gallery suggests that the prospective bidder seek the advice of his own expert before bidding on any particular lot. Tenga Gallery makes no representation or warranty as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including, but not limited to, any reproduction rights in the property. Tenga Gallery, its employees, or agents, do not guarantee the genuineness, authenticity, condition, or description of any catalogued lot. Absolutely no sales shall be cancelled due to age estimate, condition issues, or whether or not they are expressed in the condition report. 17. Breach: If the purchaser breaches any of its obligations under these Conditions of Sale, including its obligation to pay in full the purchase price of all items for which it was the highest successful bidder, Tenga Gallery may exercise all of its rights and remedies under the law including, without limitation, (a) right to hold purchaser liable for the total purchase price (2) reasonable attorney's fee connected therein (3) cancel the sale and applying any payments made by the purchaser to the damages caused by the purchaser's breach, and/or (4) offering at public auction, without reserve, any lot or item for which the purchaser has failed to pay in full the purchase price, holding the purchaser liable including but not limited to any deficiency, costs, handling chargers, expenses and commission for both sales, and any and all incidental damages. 18. Liability: In no event will the liability of Tenga Gallery to any purchaser with respect to any item exceed the purchase price actually paid by such purchaser for such item. 19. International Bidders: International bidders and buyers are responsible to meet all customs/cities/import-export regulations. Upon request, Tenga Gallery can assist but cannot be held liable for international laws affecting the delivery of the items. 20. Entire Agreement; Waiver.
