Any announcements or corrections made during a specific auction supersede these terms for that auction.
*Buyer's Premium and Tax*
All bids are subject to a non-refundable 29% buyer's premium, which shall be added to a successfully placed bid upon sale of each lot, along with any applicable local sales tax and shipping/handling fees. Any bidder representing a purchaser is personally and individually responsible for any obligations of the purchaser. Buyers claiming exemption from sales tax must submit a valid and complete resale certificate prior to invoicing.

Cardenas Auctions reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time before the actual sale. Unless otherwise announced, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog, and no lot shall be divided.
The company reserves the right to reject a bid from any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or if the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and final discretion to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the lot. In the event of a tie between an absentee and a live bidder, the lot will be sold to the live bidder. The company?s sales records are conclusive.
*Reserves and Bidding by the Auction House*

Catalogs and brochures are for guidance only and are based on believed sources, but accuracy is not guaranteed. Any condition statements are opinion only. Cardenas Auctions has no responsibility for errors or omissions. The absence of a condition statement does not imply a lot is free of wear, defects, or aging.

* The buyer gives written notice within thirty (30) days of the date of sale;
