(f) Estimated Prices- As a convenience to our clients, we furnish pre-sale estimates for all materials included in the auctions. These estimates are approximate valuations and are based upon comparable auction values. These estimates are NOT prices. Bidding usually begins at about one-half of the low estimate, but the final bid price may well be less than or more than any estimate printed. (g) Reserved Prices - Some lots in the sale are subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. The reserve will not exceed the high estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with consignors or, in the absence thereof, the absolute discretion of ETNA. The auctioneer may open bidding on any lot below reserves by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the reserve amount, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. For lots that are offered without reserves, unless there are already competing bids, the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, will generally open the bidding at half of the low estimate for the lot. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backward at his or her discretion until a bid is recognized, and then continue up from that amount. CONSIGNORS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BID ON THEIR ITEMS. 3. DURING THE SALE (a) Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog.
