December 7th Winter Decorative Arts Auction

TERMS OF SERVICE 1. Agreement: By placing a bid in this auction, Buyer agrees to these terms and conditions. Please read these terms carefully. If you do not accept these terms and conditions, you may not bid in this auction. 2. WARRANTIES/REPRESENTATIONS: All items are sold "AS IS, WHERE IS" with all faults. Neither Delmar Auction nor the consignor make any warranties or representations of any kind or nature with respect to merchantability, fitness, property, value nor of any other kind, express or implied. All items are available for your examination before the sale. Written and oral descriptions are our opinions and should in no way be construed as a guarantee of any kind as to authenticity, age, condition, materials or any other feature of items being sold. Delmar Auction attempts to catalog every lot correctly and will attempt to point out any defects but will not be responsible or liable for the correctness of the catalog or other descriptions of the lot including genuineness, attribution, provenance, authenticity, authorship, completeness, condition of property or estimate of value. All measurements are approximate. Antiques, by the very nature of their age, have wear that reflects their years of use. As a result, honest wear earned from use is to be expected and is sometimes the proof that an item is an antique. Normal wear will not be listed. Buyers who would like to know the fine points regarding condition should request a condition report at least three days prior to the sale. We recommend prospective bidders examine all items in which they have an interest in person. By placing a bid, either in person, by phone, absentee or via the Internet, you signify that you have requested condition reports for the items as fully as you desire to or that you have chosen not to examine them. If you require absolute certainty in all areas of authenticity, and the results of your evaluation leave uncertainty in your mind, we recommend you have an expert examine the lot for you or do not bid on the item in question. All sales are final! 3. Condition Reports: Delmar Auction provides condition descriptions in all of our lots. If you require additional information please make your request at least three days prior to the auction date. We can't guarantee that we will be able to answer requests made within the last 72 hours before the start of the auction. 4. Payment Methods: All items sold are for United States Dollars.
