Terms & Conditions

Payment for winning lots should be completed within 10 business days. We send our own invoice as well as one directly through Live by Tuesday after the auction. We are glad to answer any additional questions on condition or service. We typically answer very quickly, but always within one business day. All purchases are guaranteed to be authentic. These are all antique items and thus may exhibit imperfections from time and wear, please contact with any concerns before the auction. The buyer is responsible for paying the customs fees, duties, import taxes, and any related charges. Customs can cause delays in arrival of your shipment, which the seller has no control over. Please consider these charges and delays when making your purchase. If you need specific wording for customs, please also contact before payment as each country has different rules and we will try to accommodate when possible. Please be careful not to submit payment on an invoice twice. Our policy is to either refund any additional payments less processing fees, or to use as a credit on a future purchase. We accept bids from multiple platforms for our auctions. Bids across all platforms are congregated and reflected only once the live auction bidding has opened on the lot. While you may be high bidder on a platform prior to auction, you have only won the lot once the bid is confirmed as high bidder the day of auction.
