Slotin Folk Art Auction

1. All sales are final. 2. Ebay Buyer pays Slotin Folk Art Auction (“Slotin”) premium of twenty percent (20%) of the Lot’s Hammer price. (As used throughout these “Terms and Conditions,” “Lot” means an object or group of objects offered for sale as one unit and “Hammer Price,” means the price announced by the auctioneer when the hammer falls.) The Buyer’s Premium shall be collected by Slotin directly from the Buyer at the time of sale. 3. Slotin will accept cash, checks and credit cards. Credit card users will be charged an additional 4% of the Sales Price. (The “Sales Price” is the Hammer Price plus the Buyer’s Premium, plus applicable taxes). Any returned check will result in a return check fee and entitle Slotin to the remedies provided under Georgia law and in paragraph 7, below. 4. Title to Lot and risk of loss or damage to the Lot passes to the Buyer when the Hammer falls (i.e. when Slotin, as agent for seller, accepts the bid). Slotin Auction shall have no liability for any damage to property left on its premises after the date of sale. The Sales Price must be paid prior to the close of the auction. Buyers with an outstanding balance after 14 days of the close of the auction will be charged a ten percent (10%) late fee on the Sales Price. Buyers must provide a credit card number in order to bid. Buyers with an outstanding balance after 14 days will be charged the outstanding balance, including (10%) late fee and (4%) credit card fee to their credit card.

Buyer agrees that in no event shall Slotin be responsible for the correctness, description, genuiness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, value or condition of any Lot.
