BIDDING AT AUCTION. 1. REGISTRATION. 1.1 Create Account. To Bid, you must create an account with us. [If you have not previously bid or consigned with Rago/Wright, or their predecessors R. Wright Inc., David Rago Auctions or 333 Auctions, LLC, you will need to first create an account with us following the instructions provided at our website.] 1.2 Register to Bid. You also must register and receive a bidding number from us prior to bidding at an auction. 1.3 For certain auctions or lots, we may require you to confirm a minimum age. 2. QUALIFYING TO BID. 2.1 Verification of Your Identity. As a condition of bidding or participating in any auction or sale of one or more lots, we may require you to: (a) Establish credit and verify your creditworthiness by providing a valid credit card number, credit references, and an initial deposit, which may include a pre-authorization hold, of 10% of the low estimate of the lots on which you may bid; (b) Verify your identity, by providing us with a government issued photo identification and a valid credit card number; (c) Verify your address, by providing us with a valid government identification, a utility bill, bank statement and/or a recent postal envelope; (d) Verification of an age minimum, by providing us with identification; and (e) such other documents as we may request. 2.2 Verification of Your Entity and Identity.

We may set estimated price ranges (low, mid and high) for a lot. A "low estimate" is the lowest potential price in the range; the "high estimate" is the highest potential price in the range; and the "mid estimate" is the median between the two. Pre-sale estimates are intended as guides for prospective bidders. Estimates are preliminary only and are subject to revision by us from time to time in our sole discretion. We make no guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, including, without limitation, regarding the sale price of any lot, whether the lot will sell at all; the price realized at a post-auction sale, or price realized upon resale, which may be substantially different from our estimates. 3. YOUR BID IS AN OFFER. Any bid you submit can and may be the winning bid for a particular lot. Your Bid constitutes an offer to purchase the lot. if accepted by us, you become contractually bound to buy the lot in accordance with your last bid. A bid can be accepted by Rago/Wright (a) by our auctioneer as the last, highest bid in an auction; or by us an acceptable offer for a lot in a Private Sale (such accepted bid or offer, "Winning Bid"). If your last bid is the Winning Bid, you agree to pay us the amount of your bid and the Buyer's Premium for such lot and assume all risk of loss and damage to such lot, in addition to any obligations, costs and expenses relating to its handling, shipping, insurance, taxes and export as set forth herein. 4. INSPECTION. All sales are final. You are responsible for satisfying yourself as to condition or any other matter concerning each purchased lot. You are advised to personally examine any lot on which you intend to bid prior to the auction and/or sale. 5. CONDITION REPORTS AND DESCRIPTIONS. As a courtesy, condition reports for any lot are available from Rago/Wright prior to the sale, but Rago/Wright assumes no responsibility for errors and omissions contained in any such report, a Rago/Wright catalogue or other description of a lot that we may make available. Any statements made by Rago/Wright with respect to a lot whether in a condition report, a Rago/Wright catalogue or on the Rago/Wright website, orally or in writing, are intended as statements of opinion only, are not to be relied upon as statements of fact and do not constitute representations or warranties of any kind. Any description of a lot's dimensions and weights is approximate. Descriptions we make about lots may not describe all faults or restorations. No description or report about a lot is a substitute for your own examination of a lot. CONDUCT OF AUCTION 6. AUCTION. A lot will be sold to its highest bidder in an auction as determined in the sole and exclusive judgment of the auctioneer. We will determine the conduct of any auction, including, without limitation, whether, when and/or if to advance the bidding, to reject any bid offered, to withdraw any lot, to reoffer and resell any lot, and to resolve any dispute in connection with such sale. Our determination in management of an auction or sale is final and shall be binding upon you and all other participants in such sale. [In a tie between two or more Absentee Bids, the bid submitted earliest will be the Winning Bid. However, if an Absentee Bid is marked as a Plus Bid, then in a tie, we, on the absentee bidder's behalf, will automatically bid to the next highest bidding increment.] 7. US CURRENCY. All auctions will be conducted in the currency of the United States of America. 8. BIDDING INCREMENTS. Bids at auction must be submitted in the following increments: a FROM TO INCREMENT 0 300 25 300 1000 50 1000 2000 100 2000 3000 200 3000 5000 250 5000 10000 500 10000 20000 1000 20000 32000 2000 32000 38000 3000 38000 42000 2000 42000 48000 3000 48000 50000 2000 50000 100000 5000 100000 200000 10000 200000 and up 20000 Nonconforming bids will not be executed, honored or accepted. However, we and our auctioneer will regulate the bidding and may change the bidding increments in our discretion. Increments over $200,000.00 may be executed at the discretion of the auctioneer. 9. RESERVE. We may offer each lot subject to a confidential minimum price below which we will not sell the Lot (the "Reserve"). The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot below the Reserve by placing a Bid on behalf of the seller. We prohibit sellers from bidding on their own lots, but we may seek to satisfy the reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor at the auction up to the reserve. We will indicate in the catalogue or by saleroom announcement or notice when parties with an interest In a Lot, for example a beneficiary of an estate, may bid on such Lot. 10. ABSENTEE BIDS. As a convenience to Qualified Buyers who cannot be present on the day of an auction, we will use reasonable efforts to execute absentee Bids submitted to us in accordance with this Agreement. We assume no responsibility for a failure to execute any such Bid, or for errors or omissions made in connection with the execution of any such Bid. 10.1 Written Absentee Bids.

Absentee bids submitted by phone must be received by us no later 30 minutes before a Lot goes on the block. Bids you submit to us by phone are placed at our discretion and at your risk. We provide phone bidding as a convenience to our customers, but while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, we cannot be held liable or responsible for any errors or any failure to bid. All calls will be recorded for record-keeping, quality assurance, and training purposes. 10.3 Confirmation. We endeavor to send each absentee bidder a bid confirmation by 5:00 pm on the day prior to the auction. If you do not receive a bid confirmation, please call us. When you do receive a bid confirmation, you are solely responsible to check it for accuracy. 10.4 Phone Line and Agent. We guarantee you a line and a phone agent for bidding provided we receive your request by fax, mail, phone, or online by 4:00 p.m. on the day prior to the auction. We can call you using up to two phone numbers ONLY during the auction. However, we do not have the capacity to assign phone agents to clients who want to listen only or who will not bid the minimum selling price. Therefore, if you request to reserve a phone agent for bidding, you must be willing to open bidding and bid to the low estimate subject to this Agreement. 10.5 Contingency Bids and Plus Bids. (a) Contingency Bid. If you cannot be available by phone during the auction, you may mark your absentee bid with two or more bidding amounts (a "Contingency Bid") 30 minutes or more before the auction's published start time. (b) Plus Bid. If you cannot be available by phone during the auction, you may mark your bid as a "Plus" bid. A "Plus Bid" is a bid with your highest bid amount PLUS its next bidding increment that you direct us to make on your behalf if another bidder makes your highest absentee bid. 10.6 Late Bids and Late Bid Changes to bid lists left with the auction house prior to the deadline will be accommodated as best we can, as will follow-up phone bids for those who attend, but must leave the auction and other exceptional cases. 10.7 Absentee Bidding Conditions (a) We will attempt to call you at up to two phone numbers you send to us. However, there can be no assurance that we will succeed in reaching you by phone or accurately placing your bids. (b) We endeavor to handle all absentee bids as your agent, based on your directions. We bid that auction's bidding increment above the previous bid up to your maximum bid amount. (See Section 8 "Bidding Increments"). In case of failure to comply, we will reduce each off-Increment bid to the increment below it. (c) All absentee bidder names and bids are held in strictest confidence. (d) If you submit an absentee bid to us but then attend the auction in person, bid by phone or by any other means, it is solely your responsibility to cancel any or all absentee bids prior to the start of the auction. If you do not or cannot, regardless of reason, you will be held responsible for the purchase of any lot for which you have placed a Winning Bid. 10.8 Third-Party Internet Bidding Services. (a) Third Party Bidding Platforms. We engage third party online bidding platforms to collect or facilitate auction bids ("Bidding Platforms"), each of which levy a fee for their services. Please proceed to these sites for all necessary information on fees and how to bid and buy online using these Bidding Platforms. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE, WILL WE AND OUR SELLERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE, THESE BIDDING PLATFORMS. (b) Absentee bids left with third party online bidding platforms are released to Rago/Wright when a lot comes up for sale. Such bids are considered received by us at the time they are released to us by the Bidding Platforms. (c) If you submit an absentee bid to us through a Bidding Platform and also attend the auction in person, bid by phone or by any other means, it is solely your responsibility to cancel any or all of your submitted bids prior to the start of the auction.

We encourage you to be aware of, and to read, the terms and conditions and privacy policy of any Bidding Platforms that you visit. 11. AUCTION RESULTS. Preliminary auction results will be available online shortly after each auction at the website of the hosting house; www.wright20.com or www.ragoarts.com. Final auction results will be available online once we have audited and verified all sales/bids. 12. THE RECORD OF THE SALE. Rago/Wright's records of sale will constitute the factual, accurate record of all transactions you participate in under this Agreement for purposes of any disputes. If there is a discrepancy between our records and any other records or messages related to a sale or transaction in a lot, our records of sale will govern. 13. WITHDRAWAL. We may withdraw a lot from auction for any reason and with no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. PAYMENT 14. INVOICING. All successful bidders will be sent invoices by e-mail or mail (if we do not have an email address on file) within two business days following an auction. 14.1 If you are successful and do not remit payment as specified, the amount owed will be charged to your credit card together with such charges as set forth in this Agreement. 15. PAYMENT FOR AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES 15.1 You Pay Buyer Costs. If your bid is a Winning Bid (or you agree to pay the purchase price for a lot as a part of a Private Sale), you agree to pay the following charges associated with the purchase of such lot: (a) Hammer Price; (b) Buyer's Premium for each lot sold at auction of: (i) 25% of the Hammer Price (or part thereof) up to and including $250,000; (ii) 20% of the Hammer Price (or part thereof) in excess of $250,000 up to and including $3,000,000; and (iii) 12% of the Hammer Price (or part thereof) in excess of $3,000,000. (c) Any applicable sales tax, late payment charges, storage fees, credit card fees, Enforcement Costs, Bidding Platform fees and charges and other costs, damages or charges assessed in accordance with these Terms (collectively, the "Buyer Costs", and together with the Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium, "All Charges"). 15.2 Payment Procedure. You will pay All Charges immediately following Rago/Wright's acceptance of the Winning Bid unless other arrangements have been approved by Rago/Wright in advance. If Rago/Wright approves of such other arrangement for payment, Rago/Wright may at its discretion require you to make a nonrefundable down payment on All Charges. All payments must be made in US Dollars, in any of the following acceptable forms of payment: (a) Cash; (b) Check, with acceptable identification; (c) Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express; (d) PayPal 15.3 Payment Processor Charges. We may charge and collect an additional 2% of payments made by credit card or via PayPal or other third party processor. 15.4 Late Payment. If payment is not received in full within fifteen (15) days of its due date hereunder, we may charge, and you will pay, interest on the outstanding amount at a rate of 1.5% per month. 16. ENFORCEMENT COSTS. You will reimburse us for the amount of all expenses we incur, including attorneys' fees and court costs, in exercising or enforcing any of our rights hereunder or under applicable law, together with interest on all such amounts at 1.5% per month (the "Enforcement Costs") within fifteen (15) days of your receipt of our invoice for such Enforcement Costs. SALES TAX 17. NEW JERSEY AND ILLINOIS. All purchases picked up at or delivered to a New Jersey address will be taxed at the New Jersey state tax rate, currently 6.625%. All purchases picked up at or delivered to an Illinois address will be taxed at the Illinois tax rate, currently 6.25%. All purchases will also be subject to applicable city and county taxes. 18. NEXUS. On June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court decided South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., enabling states to impose sales tax responsibilities on "remote" sellers, i.e., sellers without a physical presence in the state. Since the ruling, several states have responded by implementing legislation requiring remote sellers to collect sales tax when the total dollar value of purchases sent to that state exceeds a set threshold. Each state sets its own threshold. Exceeding that threshold is known as creating an economic nexus. Like all other remote sellers, Rago is now required to collect Sales / Use Tax from buyers in these states when the total dollar value of purchases sent to that state creates a nexus. When this occurs, you will see sales tax included on your invoice. The sales tax rate is determined by the State, County, and City where purchases are sent. 19. RESALE CERTIFICATE. If you have a valid resale certificate on file with us, you will be excepted from being charged the Sales/ Use tax. Please send your completed, valid Resale Certificates to: clientaccounts@wright20.com 20. WARNING. If we have not achieved nexus with your particular state, it is still your responsibility to pay the proper use tax on your purchases. PICK-UP AND STORAGE 21. PICK-UP AND REMOVAL. You must remove each lot you are obligated to purchase from Rago/Wright (sometimes referred to as, "Purchased Lot") from our premises no later than fourteen (14) days after the date of the auction (or date of Private Sale if applicable) (the "Sale Date"). You are solely responsible for removal of your Purchased Lot from Rago/Wright facilities and all costs associated with packing, insurance, shipment and delivery of your Purchased Lot to your designated destination. 22. PROCEDURES FOR PICK-UP AND REMOVAL. 22.1 Times and Days. You may pick up a lot from our facilities during our normal business hours if you provide us at least 24 hours notice to arrange pick-up. Our facilities are open Monday - Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., but closed on government holidays and any Monday following weekend sales. You must supply and bring your own packing materials. Weekend pick-ups may be made by special arrangement and by appointment only. 22.2 Shippers. If you choose to ship a Lot from our facility, you are solely responsible for the shipment. We will, at your written direction, release your Purchased Lot to a third-party shipper to pack and ship it. We will work with any shipper of your choosing. Please make sure your shipper carries insurance. We are not responsible for any damage or loss that occurs while your objects are in another's custody or care. If you choose a shipping method that we have advised against, we may require a waiver from you acknowledging this. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not be responsible for any damage or loss that occurs to a Lot once we release it to a third-party shipper. 22.3 Referred Shippers. We may, as a courtesy to you and solely at our discretion and your risk, provide or arrange packing, shipping or similar logistical services, or refer you to third parties who specialize in these services. Any such services referred, provided or arranged by us are at your sole risk and expense; we assume no responsibility for any act or omission of any party in connection with any such service or reference, and we make no representations or warranties regarding such parties or their services. You expressly release Rago/Wright from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party website or services. 22.4 International Shipments. All international customs, duties, and other tariffs are your responsibility. We and all third-party shippers will declare the Hammer Price plus the Buyer's Premium as the value of a lot in all cases. 22.5 Oversized Lots. Oversized Lots are objects such as furniture, andirons, floor vases, or any other item whose safe packing will exceed the limits of common carriers. The delivery of oversized, large, heavy, or expensive objects is not an inexpensive proposition and we urge you to consider this before bidding. 23. DEADLINES FOR PICK-UP | STORAGE | ABANDONMENT. As stated above, you must retrieve your Purchased Lots from Rago/Wright's facilities within 14 days of the Sale Date. If you fail to retrieve your purchased lot within thirty (30) days after the Sale Date (such 30-day period, the "Retrieval Period"), we may, without further notice to you, (a) deliver the purchased lot to you at your expense (and invoice you as Buyer Costs); or (b) sell such Purchased Lot at auction without Reserve at a place and time we determine in our sole discretion; or (c) continue to store your Purchased Lot on our, or a third-party's premises and charge you a storage fee of $10 per day per lot ("Storage Fee"). You will pay all such Storage Fees and other fees and charges. 24. CONSEQUENCES OF LATE PICK-UP. 24.1 Abandoned Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rago/Wright has no duty to store any lot indefinitely. Any Purchased Lot that is still in our possession sixty (60) days after the end of the Retrieval Period (i.e. 90 days after the Sale Date) will be deemed abandoned by you and title to it, to the extent it has passed to you, will pass to us (such abandoned property, "Abandoned Property"). You authorize Rago/Wright to discard or sell any Abandoned Property and to keep any proceeds from the sale of Abandoned Property. You hereby release Rago/Wright of and from any claims related to such Abandoned Property (including without limitation claims for purchase price refunds, possession of such lot or other damages or losses). You acknowledge and agree that Rago/Wright is not responsible for damage or loss that occurs to Abandoned Property and that Rago/Wright is not responsible for insuring Abandoned Property after the Retrieval Period. 24.2 Reasonable. You agree that this remedy is reasonable in light of the costs Rago/Wright would have to incur to continue to store and process purchased Lots after sale. 25. FULL PAYMENT. You will not be permitted to claim or take possession of any lot until all Buyer Costs you owe to us have been paid in full. We may use any money you pay us to pay Buyer Costs. 26. EXPORT, IMPORT | ENDANGERED SPECIES LICENSES AND PERMITS. An export or import license may be required for the export or import of your Purchased Lot. It is your sole responsibility to familiarize yourself with International, U.S. Federal and State laws or requirements regarding the necessary export, import, or other permit required prior to bidding at auction. In addition, countries prohibit the import of property made of or incorporating plant or animal material, such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, Brazilian rosewood, rhinoceros' horn or tortoiseshell, irrespective of age, percentage or value. We make no representations or warranties as to whether any Lot is or is not subject to export or import restrictions or any embargoes and will have no responsibility with regard to these matters. Before bidding for any lot, you represent, warrant and covenant that you have made your own inquiries as to whether a license is required to export a lot from the United States or to import it into another country. It is solely your responsibility to comply with these laws and to obtain any necessary export, import and endangered species licenses or permits. Failure to obtain a license or permit or delay in so doing will not justify the cancellation of the sale or any delay in making full payment for the lot. We will not rescind the sale of a Lot that is transferred to you and later seized by government authorities due to the presence of endangered species material. As a courtesy to clients, we may advise people who inquire about lots containing potentially regulated plant or animal material, but we do not accept liability for errors or for failing to advise on lots containing protected or regulated species. TITLE AND RISK OF LOSS. 27. TITLE. Title to a Purchased Lot will not pass to you (or the third-party buyer if applicable) until Rago/Wright has received All Costs of a lot. 28. RISK OF LOSS. Notwithstanding passage of title, risk of loss to your Purchased Lot passes immediately to you: (a) when you or your agent or a shipper pick-up and take possession of it; or (b) on the thirty-first (31st) day after the Sale Date (whichever occurs first). We are not responsible for any damage or loss that occurs to the Lot past such dates. Further, if for any reason, you return your Purchased Lot back to us, risk of loss remains with you until Your Purchased Lot is delivered to us at our door. 28.1 Exceptions. Under no circumstances will Rago/Wright or its insurers be liable for damage caused by changes in humidity or temperature, conditions or defects inherent to the lot, normal wear and tear, war or acts of terrorism. Payments for loss are limited by Section 28.2 (Loss Payment Amounts and Limits). 28.2 Loss Payment Amounts and Limits. You acknowledge and agree that your sole and exclusive remedy for and with respect to any loss or damage to your Purchased Lot for which Rago/Wright is liable pursuant to this Agreement will be receipt of the amounts prescribed in this Section 28.2. Accordingly, for any loss or damage to your Purchased Lot for which you have paid All Costs and we bear the risk of loss at the time of the event causing the loss, you will be entitled to the following: (a) Total Loss. The lot's Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium if it suffers a Total Loss. (b) Partial Loss. For a lot that suffers a Partial Loss: (i) if you choose to refrain from repairing or restoring the lot, we will pay either (at our election) (A) the amount of depreciation in value from the Hammer Price as a result of the loss (and you will keep title to the lot); or (B) the lot's Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium (but we or our insurer will take title to the lot); (ii) if you choose to repair or restore the lot, we will bear the costs to repair or restore the lot, approved by us and our insurer in advance (and you will retain title to the lot). REMEDIES 29. SECURITY. As security for full payment to us of all amounts due from you and prompt collection of your Purchased Lots in accordance with these Terms, we retain, and you grant to us, a security interest in any Lot purchased by you in accordance with these Terms (and any proceeds thereof), and in any other property or money of the buyer in our possession or coming into our possession subsequently ("Security Interest"). We may apply any such money or treat any such property in any manner permitted under the Uniform Commercial Code and/or any other applicable law. You hereby grant us the right to prepare and file any documents to protect and confirm our Security Interest including but not limited to a UCC-1 Financing Statement. 30. BREACH. If a buyer fails to make timely payment as required in these Terms, or breaches any other covenant, representation or warranty in this Agreement, we may, in our discretion, exercise any remedies legally available to us, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) cancel the sale of the lot and any other sale of a lot to you; (b) resell the lot with or without reserve; (c) retain all amounts you previously paid to us, which will constitute a processing and restocking fee (which you acknowledge would be reasonable in light of the costs we would have to incur to process your breach and attempt to re-auction or resell the lot); (d) reject any bids by you at future auctions; (e) set-off any amounts owed by Rago/Wright to you in satisfaction of unpaid amounts; and/or (f) take any other action we deem necessary or appropriate under the circumstances. 31. CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT. If you default on payment of one or more Winning Bids under this Agreement, you hereby authorize any attorney to appear in a court of record and confess judgment against you in favor of Rago/Wright for the payment of All Charges on those Winning Bids. Accordingly, the confession of judgment may be without process and for any amount due on this Note including collection costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. This authorization is in addition to all other remedies available to Rago/Wright. 32. RECISSION/VOIDING OF SALE BY RAGO/WRIGHT. If we become aware of a third party"s adverse claim relating to a lot purchased by you, we may, in our discretion, rescind the sale. Upon notice of our election to rescind a sale, you will promptly return such Lot to us, at which time we will refund to you the Hammer Price and Buyer's Premium you paid to us for such Lot. This refund will represent your sole remedy against us and/or the seller in case of a rescission of sale under this paragraph, and you agree to waive all other remedies at law or equity with respect to the same. If you do not return such Lot to us in accordance with this paragraph, you agree to indemnify, defend and hold Rago/Wright, its officers, directors, employees, agents and their successors and assigns, harmless from any damages, costs, liabilities or other losses (including attorney's fees) arising as a result of such third party claim. 33. AML. Rago/Wright is committed to detect and deter money laundering, to protect our consignors from failed transactions and to promote ethics and fairness in our transactions and those generally in the world or art and design. Accordingly, Rago/Wright may, at our discretion, refuse your participation in our sales, auctions or activities; cancel your registration with Rago/Wright; cancel or refuse to accept your bid for lots at any time prior to, during or even after the close of the sale; and require documentation and information to verify your identity or the identity of the officers, directors or beneficial owners of the entity you represent. 34. PRIVACY AND SECURITY. We will hold and process your personal information for use as described in, and in line with, our privacy policy at [INSERT PRIVACY POLICY LINK]. All payments information relating to the sale is collected and processed directly by third-party payment processors, and not by Rago/Wright. SPECIAL PROPERTY 35. FIREARMS. We only sell antique firearms as defined by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. Due to state firearms regulations, all handguns, pistols, and revolvers will only be shipped via Federal Express and will only be delivered to a person who holds a Federal Firearms License or a Curios and Relics License. Handguns, pistols, and revolvers can only be picked up at our facilities by a person who holds a Federal Firearms License, or the proper handgun permits of the state where the handgun is sold, which must be shown and logged. There are no exceptions. No firearms will be sold or shipped internationally. It is your sole responsibility to familiarize yourself with your local laws and requirements for the possession of firearms; to identify and obtain any necessary license or permit prior to bidding; and to abide by all Federal, State and local laws and requirements. Neither Rago/Wright nor the seller makes any representations or warranties as to whether any lot is or is not subject to these regulations and will have no responsibility with regard to these matters. 36. JEWELRY. For centuries, natural gemstones have been enhanced in a variety of ways, including heating, oiling and other methods. These treatments are accepted by the international jewelry and gemstone trade. We make no representations or warranties, express or implied, as to whether natural stones have been treated or enhanced, whether specifically referenced or not. All stones have been identified by standard gemological field tests, as the mounting allows, and we will make available to prospective buyers any gemological certificates in our possession. However, it will not always be feasible to obtain a qualified lab report on every stone we offer for sale. If you wish to have a grading or gemological report from an independent recognized laboratory such as the Gemological Institute of America, the European Gemological Laboratories or the American Gemological Institute, you may request one at your own expense or hire an independent adviser of your choosing at your expense. Weights given for stones we offer for sale are based solely on measurements and known gemological formulae; they are approximate, not exact. Weight may differ once a stone is removed from its setting. You are advised to verify weight estimates prior to bidding at auction. COINS AND CURRENCY. All coins and currency are sold "as is" by us, except as to authenticity. You acknowledge and agree that grading is not an exact science, but a matter of opinion as to condition and other attributes; and that grading can and will differ among third party grading services (even though consensus grading is employed by most), independent experts, dealers, collectors and auction houses, including our own. Opinion as to the grading, condition or other attributes of any Lots may have a material effect on value. Coins and currency are sold without any additional express or implied warranty, including, but not limited to, (a) grade; (b) referencing the opinion of a third-party grading service; (c) with no reference to the opinion of a third-party grading service; (d) with reference to our opinion as to grading; (e) subsequently submitted to a third-party grading service for determination or certification; (f) encapsulated and therefore unable to be physically examined. 36.1 We reserve the right to differ with the grades assigned to any Lot, by certificate or otherwise, regardless of the grading service, and will not be bound by any prior or subsequent opinion, determination or certification by third-party grading services including, but not limited to, National Guaranty Company (NGC), Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS), Paper Money Guaranty (PMG) and Currency Grading and Authentication (CGA) or any other any grading service, third party organization or dealer. There is no guarantee or warranty implied or expressed that the grading standards we use will meet the standards of any grading service at any time in the future. We have graded uncertified coins and currency with reference to the current interpretation of the American Numismatic Association's standards at the time of grading. 36.2 We may re-grade any Lot re-consigned for any reasons, including, but not limited to a change of grading standards, differences in opinion, mishandling over time. 36.3 We will not be liable for any patent or latent defect or controversy pertaining to or arising from any encapsulated coins or currency. In any such instance, your remedy, if any, shall be solely against the service certifying and you hereby agree that you will have no remedy against us. 36.4 Please note that certain types of plastic may react with a coin's metal or transfer plasticizer to notes, causing damage. Avoid storage in materials that are not inert. WARRANTY 37. LIMITED WARRANTY.

(e) The description of clocks and lighting devices, whether in the catalogue or a condition report, as such descriptions may be incomplete and not identify every mechanical replacement, repair, or defect.
