TERMS OF SALE When bidding on any lot offered by Culver Auctions, the bidder indicates acceptance of these Terms of Sale. Participation in the auction binds you to these terms, regardless of whether you have read or understood them. The Terms in writing contained herein are subject to change without notice, and the most recently published Terms of Sale on the website at the time of auction shall apply. CONDITION OF ITEMS Culver Auctions makes every effort to accurately describe all items offered in its sales; however, all items are sold as is, where is, and it is the bidder's responsibility to determine the exact condition of each item. Culver Auctions recommends making an appointment to personally view any items. Requests for additional information or photos will not be accepted for online-only sales. Culver Auctions will not be held responsible for typographical errors or misdescriptions. Neither Culver Auctions nor the consignor makes any guarantees, warranties, or representations, expressed or implied, regarding the property, including but not limited to the correctness of the description, authenticity, physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, provenance, exhibition, literature, or historical relevance. All items are sold for display purposes. If electrical, mechanical, or other parts are inoperable, Culver Auctions is not liable, due to the age and condition of the items. Returns will not be accepted under any circumstance. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. THERE WILL BE NO REFUNDS AND NO EXCHANGES. Please contact us within 3 days of receiving your item if the item does not match the TITLE. GOODS MADE FROM OR CONTAINING MATERIALS FROM PROTECTED SPECIES Culver Auctions does not accept responsibility or liability for the sale of items containing materials from protected species. Such material includes, but is not limited to, ivory from elephants and walruses, tortoise shell, crocodile skin, whalebone, rhinoceros horn, some species of coral and certain woods. Restrictions on the importation, exportation, sale, transfer, and/or possession of goods containing materials from protected species derive from international, federal, and state laws and regulations promulgated thereunder. Laws include, but are not limited to, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Flora and Fauna (CITES), the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Marine Mammals Protection Act (MMPA). States currently restricting trade of protected species includes, but are not limited to, California, New York and New Jersey. Prospective buyers are on notice that several countries completely prohibit importation of property made, all or in part, of protected materials. Some countries require special permits, such as a CITES permit, from the relevant regulating authority in the countries of exportation and importation as well. Potential buyers intending to import the property into another country should be familiar with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on goods containing material from protected species. Regulations may vary as the U.S. generally prohibits importation of articles containing material(s) from species it has designated endangered or threatened if the articles are less than 100 years old, subject to certain exceptions. It shall be the potential buyer's sole responsibility to research and satisfy the requirements of any laws and regulations that apply to the import and export of property as described in the aforementioned paragraphs. All buyers agree to comply with any and all domestic and international restrictions on the trade of protected species as a condition of the sale. Please note that the ability to obtain an export license or certificate does not ensure the ability to obtain an import license or certificate in another country, and vice versa. It is the buyer's responsibility to obtain any export or import licenses and/or certificates as well as any other required documentation. CULVER AUCTIONS is not able to assist the buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and there is no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. The inability or delay in obtaining permits, licenses or other permissions to import or export goods containing material from protected species will not constitute a basis for rescission or cancellation of the sale of said goods or the delay in payment of purchased items in accordance with these Bidder Terms and Conditions.
