Terms & Conditions

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Bidders and Buyers and form part of our Conditions of Business. All sales are

governed by our printed Conditions of Business, including the Information for Buyers, Conditions of Sale, and the Terms of Consignment for Sellers,

which are readily available for inspection in our printed catalogues or in our saleroom. Buyers should carefully read the Conditions of Sale and Terms of

Consignment for Sellers prior to bidding at auction, as Bidders and Buyers will be deemed to have accepted these terms and conditions once a bid has

been placed. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

Please refer to clause 1 of the Conditions of Sale if you are unsure about the meaning of a defined term.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we act as agent for the Seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed to the Buyer. If a Buyer

purchases at auction, the contract of sale is made directly between the Buyer and the Seller.

3. Pre-sale Estimates. Pre-sale estimates are intended as a guide to help Buyers gauge approximate prices for the purchase of a particular lot. The

actual Hammer Price realised at auction may be higher or lower than the pre-sale estimate. The lower estimate may represent a reserve price which we

have agreed with the Seller. Pre-sale estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT. Estimates printed in the sale catalogue are prepared some

time before the sale and may be altered by announcement prior to the auction. It is advisable for the Buyer to consult us nearer the time of the auction

for any updates or revisions to pre-sale estimates.

4. Buyer’s Premium. A Buyer’s Premium of 19.5% on the Hammer Price of each lot purchased is payable to us by the Buyer. In addition, VAT is

chargeable on the Buyer’s Premium (see below paragraph 5 in relation to VAT).

5. VAT. Our sale catalogues include guidance in relation to the VAT implications of purchasing particular lots. Please note that this is general guidance

only and is subject to relevant tax legislation in force at the time of sale. Buyers should seek independent advice from a tax advisor.

The symbol (*) indicates a lot on which VAT is payable by the Buyer at the standard rate (presently 20%) on the Hammer Price as well as being added to

the Buyer’s Premium.

The symbol (**) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and is currently liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the

gross lot price (i.e. both the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium).

Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the Hammer Price. Such lots are sold using a Margin Scheme.

Buyers should note that any VAT which may be included within the Buyer’s Premium for these lots is not recoverable as input tax.

When a Buyer is located outside of the European Union, VAT will be charged to the Buyer but can be refunded once the Buyer has provided us with

proof of export from the European Union for the purchased lot within 3 months of the date of the sale. We can assist you with the forms necessary for

recovering VAT.

6. Description and Condition of Lots. As agents for the Seller, we are primarily dependent on information provided by the Seller, and any statement

made by us in respect of any lot, as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price, including condition

reports that may be provided at the Buyer’s request, is a statement of opinion honestly held by us. It is recommended that prospective Buyers inspect

the lots on which they intend to bid at pre-sale viewings in our saleroom. Accordingly, we accept bids from potential Buyers on the basis that Buyers (or

their advisors) have fully inspected the lot prior to bidding and have satisfied themselves prior to bidding in relation to the condition and accuracy of the

description of the lot.

The nature of the lots sold at auction is such that they will rarely be in perfect condition and are likely, due to their nature and their age, to show signs

of wear and tear, damage, or other imperfections, restoration or repair. Any reference to condition by Cheffins will not amount to a full description of

condition. Photographs included in Cheffins’ sale catalogues are not representative of the condition of any lot.

We draw the Buyer’s attention to the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the Seller nor we, as the

auctioneers, accept any responsibility for the condition of any lot.

In certain specified circumstances, lots that are misdescribed because they are deliberate forgeries may be returned by the Buyer and repayment made

by the Seller. There is a 3 week time limit for a Buyer to return a lot on this basis (please see the Conditions of Sale for the definition of “Deliberate

Forgery”).

7. Electrical and Mechanical Goods. All electrical and mechanical goods are sold for their decorative and artistic value and are not guaranteed to be

in working order. Prior to use, the electrical system of such goods must be checked and approved by a qualified electrician for compliance with safety

regulations.

8. Soft Furnishings. Soft furnishings sold at auction may not comply with statutory safety and fire regulations. Prior to use, it is the Buyer’s

responsibility to ensure that such goods are reupholstered, restuffed and/or recovered as appropriate in order that they comply with safety regulations.

Cambridge, CB1 7EA

www.cheffins.co.uk/fineart

fine.art@cheffins.co.uk

9. Endangered Species. Property sold at auction may incorporate endangered or other species of wildlife and plantlife, for example ivory, tortoiseshell,

crocodile skin, whale bone, ebony or rosewood. Several countries restrict or prohibit the import or export of objects containing these materials or require

a permit for their movement (for example, a CITES licence). Prior to bidding on an item which may include these or similar organic materials, Buyers

should familiarise themselves with the relevant customs laws and regulations if they intend to move the property to another country.

10. Jewellery. Gemstones are often treated to enhance their colour and improve their appearance. They may be heated or treated by oil or resin to

intensify colour and transparency. Other techniques such as dyeing, irradiation, coating and impregnation may also be used. Buyers should be aware

that unless the catalogue description specifically states that the stone is natural, Cheffins has assumed that any treatment may not be permanent and

that special care of the stone may be needed in the future.

11. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before a sale commences in order to place a bid on any lot. Proof of identification (photo identification

and proof of current address) will be required at the time of registration if the Bidder is unknown to us.

Lots will only be invoiced to the name and address on the bid registration form and cannot be transferred to another name and address. We can only

accept payment for the lot from the registered Bidder.

12. Other Ways to Bid. There are several alternatives to bidding in person in the sale room at the time of the sale.

Commission bids may be left with the Auctioneer by a Bidder indicating the maximum amount to be bid (excluding VAT and Buyer’s Premium and any other

charges that may apply). Subject to the reserve price of the lot and any other bids received, the sale may be concluded for less than the maximum bid.

Bidders may also register to bid on the telephone or online during the sale. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for alternative means of

placing bids. Bids must be received by Cheffins not less than 24 hours before the sale.

If two Bidders submit identical bids, the Auctioneer will endeavour to ensure the first bid received has priority.

13. Payment. Payment is due immediately after the auction. We accept the following methods of payment:

• Bank Transfer - direct to our bankers, Barclays Bank Bene’t St, Cambridge, Sort Code: 20-17-19, Account number: 50690961, IBAN:

GB22BARC20171950690961, Swift Code: BARCGB22

• Secure Online Gateway – an electronic invoice will be provided to the Buyer which contains a link to our secure payment page for

online payment by credit or debit card.

• Cash - As a consequence of the Money Laundering Regulations 2003, we are no longer able to accept cash payments for sums in

excess of £7,500. This includes single payments amounting to this sum or multiple payments totalling £7,500.

• Cheques - supported by a valid guarantee card, cheques are accepted entirely at our discretion and any cheques tendered will need

to be cleared before removal of the lot is permitted (please note you must allow 6 working days for a cheque to clear before we

release any goods purchased).

• Debit cards - payments can be made in person or over the telephone (please note there is a £500 limit for payments over the

telephone).

• Credit cards - are subject to a surcharge of 2%. Payments can be made in person or over the telephone (please note there is a £500

limit for payments over the telephone).

Sold lots can only be released to the Buyer on Cheffins’ receipt of payment in full and cleared funds of the Purchase Price.

14. Export of Goods. Any lot purchased at auction may be subject to export restrictions or may require a licence for export out of the United Kingdom,

for example depending on the age and value of the lot or if the lot contains organic or endangered materials that are restricted from export (as discussed

at paragraph 9 above).

The Buyer is responsible for obtaining any licences that may be required (including any licence that may be required for import into the destination

country). The delay or denial of any such licence will not be grounds for the Buyer to cancel any purchase.

At the Buyer’s request, we can assist in the application for the export of goods outside of the UK.

15. Collection and storage. Please note that all lots must be paid for and collected by the Buyer promptly following the auction and in any event

within 10 days following the sale. Lots cannot be released until payment (including Buyer’s Premium and VAT where applicable) has been received by us

in full and cleared funds. Any delay of payment may involve the Buyer in incurring storage charges.

At the Buyer’s request, we may assist in arranging shipment of lots. Otherwise, collection of lots is the Buyer’s sole responsibility. Buyers will be required

to produce proof of identity on collection of the lot.

If a Buyer arranges for a third party to collect a sold lot on the Buyer’s behalf, we will require from the Buyer written evidence of the third party’s authority

to collect the lot in advance of releasing it. Cheffins accepts no liability for loss or damage to any lot once it has been collected.

Failure by the Buyer or their authorised representative to collect within the specified timeframe may lead to removal of the lot to offsite storage for which

the Buyer will be charged removal and storage.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS

All aspects of the relationship between Sellers, Buyers and/or Cheffins regarding the sale, purchase or holding of property by Cheffins are governed by

Cheffins’ Conditions of Business, including these Terms of Consignment, the Conditions of Sale, the Information for Buyers and any additional terms,

conditions or notices as may be referred to herein or that may be amended by way of notices posted in the saleroom or by way of announcements made

by the Auctioneer.

Sellers’ attention is specifically drawn to paragraphs 4, 5, 8 and 12.4, which contain specific obligations on Sellers and limitations and exclusions of

Cheffins’ legal liability. These limitations and exclusions are consistent with Cheffins’ role as a provincial auction house.

The Seller agrees that all property will be sold in accordance with Cheffins’ Conditions of Business.

1. DEFINITIONS.

in writing of any concerns expressed by third parties in relation to the ownership, condition, authenticity, attribution, or export or import of the

discretion to rescind the sale.

4.3. Items for sale must be consigned to the saleroom by any deadline as stated by Cheffins. All costs and expenses incurred for packing, shipping

resulting from any breach or alleged breach of any of the above representations or warranties.

5.2. The Seller’s representations, undertakings and indemnities will survive completion of the sale of the lot.

6. ESTIMATES AND DESCRIPTIONS.

6.1. Lots may be included in a sale at Cheffins’ sole discretion, including how the lot is described and illustrated in the sale catalogue and any

marketing of the lot.

6.2. Any estimates given by Cheffins are honestly held opinions only and are only an indication of the price a lot may achieve at the sale. The

price achieved may be higher or lower and the Seller may not rely on Cheffins’ estimates. Estimates may be revised at any time prior to sale at

Cheffins’ sole discretion.

6.3. The description of a lot is a matter of Cheffins’ opinion and not of fact, and depends on several factors, including but not limited to the

information provided by the Seller, the condition of the lot, and the generally accepted expert opinion regarding the lot at the time of

cataloguing.

6.4. Cheffins may at its sole discretion consult with or refer any lot to a third party for further research or additional expert opinion. Cheffins is in

no way obligated to consult any third party expert in relation to any lot.

6.5. Subject to the limitations and exclusions set out in these Terms of Consignment, Cheffins exercises reasonable care in compiling descriptions of

lots and any other related reports, consistent with its role as a provincial auction house.

7. ILLUSTRATIONS.

Lots may be illustrated in the sale catalogue at Cheffins’ sole discretion. The cost of any illustrations is borne by the Seller. The copyright in respect of

8.3. Cheffins does not exclude or limit its liability in relation to fraudulent misrepresentation by Cheffins. Subject to the foregoing, any claim against

Cheffins by the Seller is limited to the Net Sale Proceeds of the relevant lot and does not include any indirect or consequential losses of the

Seller.

9. RESERVES.

9.1. Lots will normally be offered for sale subject to a reserve to be agreed between Cheffins and the Seller before the sale, that is, the minimum

Hammer Price at which that lot may be sold. A reserve once set cannot be changed except with Cheffins’ consent. Reserves must be

reasonable and Cheffins may decline to offer goods which in its opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve. No reserve may

exceed the lot’s final low pre-sale estimate. Lots with estimates of £100 or lower will be sold without reserve.

9.2. Cheffins shall in no circumstances be liable if bids are not received to the level of the reserve. Cheffins may at its discretion sell lots below the

reserve provided Cheffins pays the Seller the sale proceeds it would have received if the lot had sold for the reserve.

10. BIDDING.

The Seller may not bid or instruct a third party to bid on its behalf for property that it consigns for sale.

11. POST-SALE.

Following the sale, the Seller will be liable to pay Cheffins the Seller’s Commission and any other expenses set out in these Terms of Consignment. All

monies due to Cheffins by the Seller will be deducted from the payment of the Hammer Price received from the Buyer.

12. PAYMENT TO SELLER.

12.1. After the sale of the Seller’s property, settlement of the Net Sale Price due to the Seller shall normally be made not later than 21 working days

following the sale, subject always to Cheffins receiving payment of the Purchase Price in full and cleared funds from the Buyer. In the event the

Buyer has not paid for the lot, no settlement will be made to the Seller until payment is received.

12.2. Cheffins may take the Seller’s instructions regarding recovery of payment, subject to the Conditions of Sale, but it is at Cheffins’ sole discretion

whether to take any action against a Buyer or seek any of the remedies as set out in the Conditions of Sale. Cheffins is under no obligation to

investigate the ability of any Bidder to pay for purchased lots or to pursue any Buyer for non-payment.

12.3. The Seller agrees to inform Cheffins of any action which it chooses to take against a Buyer in order to enforce payment by the Buyer.

12.4. The Seller’s attention is drawn to its liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to Cheffins in the event any lot is deemed to be a Deliberate

Forgery (as described in paragraph 10 of the Conditions of Sale).

13. LOSS AND DAMAGE OF PROPERTY.

13.1. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Seller as set out below, Cheffins assumes liability for loss or damage to property consigned to it at

the low pre-sale estimate commencing when the property is received by Cheffins until title passes to the Buyer, in the event the property is sold.

If the property is unsold, Cheffins’ liability will cease when the property is collected by the Seller, or 10 days after the sale, whichever is earlier.

13.2. The liability assumed by Cheffins for loss or damage to any lot shall be limited to the low pre-sale estimate, or to the Hammer Price if the lot

has sold, or to the reserve if the lot was unsold.

13.3. The Seller must instruct Cheffins in writing if it does not wish Cheffins to assume liability for consigned property as set out above. The property

will then remain entirely at the Seller’s risk unless and until the property passes to the Buyer or is collected by or on behalf of the Seller.

13.4. Sellers do not in any event have the right to claim for loss or damage to property under Cheffins’ insurance policy.

14. UNSOLD AND WITHDRAWN ITEMS.

14.1. In the event a lot remains unsold at auction, the Seller authorises Cheffins at its discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty for a period of 10

days following the auction. The charges and expenses as set out in these Terms of Consignment will be payable by the Seller as if such lot had

been sold at auction. Insofar as appropriate, the Conditions of Business are applicable to any such private treaty sale.

14.2. If an item is unsold it may with the Seller’s consent be re-offered at a future auction. The Conditions of Business shall be applicable to any

items reconsigned for sale. Where in Cheffins’ opinion an item is unsaleable, the Seller must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on

being so informed and in any event within 10 days of such notification.

14.3. Alternatively, unsold items may be collected by the Seller within 10 days of the sale in which the lot was entered, subject to payment by the

Seller of any expenses due to Cheffins.

14.4. Cheffins may in its absolute discretion withdraw an item from sale if it reasonably believes that the warranties given by the Seller under the

Conditions of Business in relation to that item may be breached, or if it becomes aware of an actual breach of the warranties in relation to that

item. Cheffins will notify the Seller if the Seller’s property is withdrawn from sale. The Seller must collect its property promptly on being so

informed and in any event within 10 days of such notification.

14.5. Failure by the Seller to collect any item within the specified time will incur storage charges at a daily rate of £5/day (+VAT), such charges to

accrue until the Seller collects the item.

14.6. A fee of 15% (+ VAT) of Cheffins’ pre-sale mid estimate is chargeable on all lots withdrawn from sale.

14.7. Unsold and withdrawn lots will not be released to the Seller until the fees and expenses under these Terms of Consignment are paid to Cheffins

by the Seller.

15. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE.

15.1. The Seller is solely responsible for packing and delivery of their property to Cheffins prior to sale, and for collection in the event the property is

unsold. Cheffins may agree with the Seller to arrange for a third party shipper, at the Seller’s expense. Any expenses incurred by Cheffins in

relation to transport of Seller’s property will be chargeable to the Seller.

15.2. Cheffins is not liable for any loss or damage to any property caused by any third party in relation to handling, packing, transport or storage.

15.3. In the event property has been delivered to Cheffins’ saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and/or remains uncollected and/or

unconsigned for sale, Cheffins reserves the right to charge £5 (+ VAT) per lot per day for warehousing. Cheffins will notify the Seller on record

in writing at the Seller’s last known address. If the property is not removed within 6 months from such notification, Cheffins reserves the right

to sell the property and defray its expenses from any net proceeds of sale. Alternatively, Cheffins may at the Seller’s expense give the property

to the local authority or other body for disposal.

CONDITIONS OF SALE

Cheffins Fine Art (“Cheffins”) carries on business with Bidders, Buyers and Sellers on the following Conditions of Sale, the Terms of Consignment for

Sellers, the Information for Buyers and on such other terms, conditions and notices as may be referred to herein or that may be amended by way of

notices posted in the saleroom or by way of announcements made by the Auctioneer.

“Buyer’s Premium” means payment of 19.5% on the Hammer Price of each lot purchased, payable to Cheffins by the Buyer, on which VAT is chargeable.

“Deliberate Forgery” means an imitation made with the intention of deceiving as to authorship, origin, date, age, period, culture or source but which is

unequivocally described in the catalogue as being the work of a particular creator and which at the date of the sale had a materially lesser value than it

would have had if it had been in accordance with the catalogue description.

“Hammer Price” means the highest bid reached (at or above any reserve) and accepted by the Auctioneer when the Auctioneer brings down the hammer

and the sale of the lot is final.

“Purchase Price” means the Hammer Price in respect of the lot sold, together with any Buyer’s Premium, Value Added Tax chargeable and any additional

charges payable by a Buyer in accordance with these Conditions.

“Seller” means the legal owner of the lot offering it for sale, including their agents (other than Cheffins), executors or personal representatives.

“Terms of Consignment” means the stipulated terms and rates of commission on which Cheffins accepts instructions from Sellers or their agents and

which form part of these Conditions of Business.

The singular includes the plural and vice versa as appropriate.

2. BIDDING

2.1 Bidders are required to register their details before bidding and to supply any information or references required by Cheffins before entering

the auction room to bid or before Cheffins will accept any other form of bid, whether by commission, telephone or otherwise. Proof of the

Bidder’s identification (photo identification and proof of current address) will be required at the time of registration.

2.2 The Bidder with the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the Buyer at the Hammer Price.

2.3 Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals and require Cheffins’ written consent at the time of Bidder registration to bid as agent for another

party. Bidders are personally liable for their bid and jointly and severally liable with their principal if bidding as agent (whether or not Cheffins

has consented to the Bidder acting as agent).

2.4 Lots will only be invoiced to the name and address of the Bidder on the bid registration form and cannot be transferred to another name and

address. Cheffins can only accept payment for the lot from the registered Bidder.

2.5 Cheffins expressly reserves the right to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of any reserve. The Auctioneer has discretion to refuse any

bid from any Bidder, and to withdraw or re-offer any lot if the Auctioneer believes there has been an error or dispute. Any dispute about a bid

shall be settled at the Auctioneer’s absolute discretion, the Auctioneer acting reasonably at all times.

2.6 All lots (unless otherwise specified) are offered subject to a confidential reserve price agreed between Cheffins and the Seller below which

Cheffins may not sell the lot. The reserve price shall be no higher than the low pre-sale estimate of the lot at the time of auction.

Cheffins is not bound to implement any of the above increments.

2.8 Cheffins’ knowledge in relation to any lot is dependent on information provided by the Seller of the lot. Cheffins is not able to and does

not carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Bidders acknowledge this fact and accept responsibility for carrying out inspections and

investigations to satisfy themselves as to the lots on which they bid.

2.9 Each lot offered for sale at Cheffins is available for inspection by Bidders prior to the auction. Cheffins accepts bids by any means on the

basis that Bidders (and/or independent advisors acting on the Bidder’s behalf) have fully inspected the lot prior to bidding and have satisfied

themselves prior to bidding as to both the condition of the lot and the accuracy of its description. All lots are offered for sale in the condition

they are in at the time of the auction.

2.10 Sale catalogues, catalogue illustrations and condition reports are for information purposes only and do not necessarily convey the full

information regarding any lot. Information provided to Bidders or their advisors prior to the sale in respect of any lot, whether written or oral

and including any information in the sale catalogue or condition or other report, is a statement of opinion honestly held by Cheffins and is not

a statement of fact.

2.11 Subject to the conditions of paragraphs 2.8 – 2.10, Cheffins exercises reasonable care when making statements of opinion consistent with its

role as a provincial auction house, on the basis of information provided by the Seller, available scholarship, and the generally accepted opinions

of relevant experts (at the time any such expert expressly states such opinion). Cheffins is in no way required to seek the opinion of any expert

outside Cheffins.

2.12 A sale contract is made directly between the Buyer and the Seller on the fall of the Auctioneer’s hammer, following which the Buyer becomes

liable to pay the Purchase Price.

3. OTHER TYPES OF BIDS

3.1 Subject to the conditions set out in paragraph 2, Cheffins will, if so instructed by a Bidder clearly in writing not less than 24 hours prior to

auction, execute bids on the Bidder’s behalf by commission bid, or the Bidder can register not less than 24 hours prior to auction to bid during

the auction by telephone or online. Neither the Auctioneer nor its employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to execute any

instructions to bid for any reason, including but not limited to technical failures of phones or online connection.

3.2 Where applicable, if two Bidders submit identical bids, the Auctioneer will endeavour to ensure the first bid received has priority.

4. VALUE ADDED TAX

Value Added Tax on the Hammer Price is imposed by the laws of England and Wales on all items identified with an asterisk (*) or double asterisk (**) and

will be imposed on the Buyer’s Premium. Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate in accordance with legislation in force at the date of sale

and is payable by Buyers of relevant lots (Please refer to “Information for Buyers” for a brief explanation of the VAT position).

5. PAYMENT

5.1 Unless otherwise agreed with Cheffins, the Buyer will pay to Cheffins the Purchase Price immediately following the sale of any lot.

5.2 Any payments by the Buyer to Cheffins may be applied by Cheffins towards any sums owing from the Buyer to Cheffins on any account

whatever without regard to any directions of the Buyer, whether express or implied.

5.3 Title in a purchased lot will not pass to the Buyer until Cheffins has received the Purchase Price of the lot in full and cleared funds. Cheffins will

not release any lot to the Buyer for collection until payment of the Purchase Price and any additional charges to the Buyer (as set out below in

clause 7.2) is received.

following the date of the relevant auction.

Buyer’s behalf will require written authorisation by the Buyer before Cheffins will release any purchased lot to them.

6.3 All packing and handling of lots will be at the Buyer’s sole risk. Cheffins will not be responsible for any acts or omissions of third party packers

or shippers.

7. FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES

7.1 If the Buyer pays the Purchase Price and any related expenses but fails to collect a purchased lot within 10 days following the date of the

relevant auction, the lot will be stored at the Buyer’s expense and risk, at Cheffins or with a third party.

7.2 The Buyer shall be required to pay all additional expenses, including but not limited to handling and storage, incurred for failing to collect a

purchased lot before the lot is released to the Buyer for collection.

8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT

8.1 If any lot is not paid for in full and collected in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, Cheffins,

as agent for the Seller and on its own behalf, shall at its absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights Cheffins or the Seller may

have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies:

(a) to commence legal proceedings against the Buyer to recover the Purchase Price and any related expenses for that lot, together with interest

and costs of such proceedings on a full indemnity basis;

(b) to cancel the sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by Cheffins to the Buyer;

(c) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) with estimates and reserves at Cheffins’ sole discretion. The Buyer shall be responsible for

payment of any resulting shortfall in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs);

(d) to remove, store and insure the lot at the Buyer’s sole risk and expense and, in the case of storage, either at Cheffins’ premises or elsewhere;

(e) to charge interest at a rate not exceeding 1.5% per month on the total amount due from the Buyer to the extent it remains unpaid for

more than 10 days after the sale until such time as all payments are received in full and cleared funds;

(f) to retain the lot or any other lot sold to the Buyer until the Buyer pays the total amount due and to exercise a lien over any of the Buyer’s

property in Cheffins’ possession for any purpose until the debt due is satisfied;

(g) to reject or ignore bids from the Buyer or the Buyer’s agent at future auctions or to impose conditions before any such bids shall be accepted;

(h) to apply any proceeds of sale of other lots due or in future becoming due to the Buyer towards the settlement of the total amount due; and/or

(i) to release the name and address of the Buyer to the Seller to enable the Seller to commence legal proceedings to recover the amounts due

and legal costs. Cheffins will take reasonable measures to notify the Buyer prior to releasing such details to the Seller.

8.2 We shall, as agent for the Seller and on our own behalf pursue these rights and remedies only so far as we deem at our sole discretion is

reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these Conditions of Business. We are in no way obligated to exercise any of

the above rights or remedies.

9. WARRANTIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

9.1 The Seller warrants to the Bidder that it is the legal owner of the property consigned for sale, or is properly authorised by the legal owner to

consign it for sale, and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.

9.2 Subject to paragraph 9.1, neither Cheffins nor the Seller is liable for any errors or omissions provided to Bidders by Cheffins, whether orally or

in writing, where negligent or otherwise, except as set out in paragraph 2.11.

9.3 Subject to paragraphs 9.6 and 10, neither Cheffins nor the Seller gives any guarantee or warranty to the Bidder. Any implied warranties and

conditions are excluded (except where such warranties and conditions cannot be excluded by law), other than the express warranties given by

the Seller to the Buyer in the Terms of Consignment for Sellers.

9.4 Neither Cheffins nor the Seller accepts responsibility to any Bidder for acts or omissions (whether negligent or otherwise) by Cheffins in relation

to the conduct of any auction.

9.5 Any claim by a Bidder or a Buyer against Cheffins or the Seller is limited to the Purchase Price in respect of the relevant lot and shall not include

under any circumstances indirect or consequential losses.

9.6 This paragraph 9 shall not exclude or limit Cheffins’ liability in respect of any fraudulent misrepresentation made by Cheffins or the Seller.

10. DELIBERATE FORGERIES

10.1 Notwithstanding the conditions in paragraph 9, any lot which proves to be a Deliberate Forgery (as defined in paragraph 1) may be returned

to Cheffins by the Buyer within 21 days of the relevant auction, provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by

particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If Cheffins is satisfied at its sole discretion

that the above criteria have been met and that the lot is a Deliberate Forgery, the sale will be cancelled and Cheffins shall refund the money

paid by the Buyer for the lot including any Buyer’s Premium.

10.2 Paragraph 10.1 shall not apply if either: (1) the catalogue description reflected the generally accepted view of scholars and experts as at the

date of sale, or the catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of opinion; or (2) the only method of establishing at the date of

sale that the item was a Deliberate Forgery would have been not then generally available or accepted, unreasonably expensive or impractical to

use, or likely to have caused damage or loss of value (in Cheffins’ reasonable opinion) of the lot; or (3) there has been no material loss in value

of the lot from its value had it been in accordance with its description.

10.3 If the Buyer is not personally able to transfer a good and marketable title to Cheffins, then the Buyer shall have no rights under this paragraph

10. The right of return provided by this paragraph 10 is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.

10.4 Cheffins may require the Buyer to obtain at the Buyer’s expense the reports of up to two independent and recognised experts in the field,

mutually acceptable to Cheffins and to the Buyer. Cheffins shall not be bound by any reports produced by the Buyer, and reserves the right to

seek additional expert advice at its own expense.

11. EXPORT AND LICENCING

It is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to identify and obtain any necessary licences for a lot, including but not limited to export, import, or endangered

species. Cheffins and the Seller make no representations or warranties as to whether any lot is or is not subject to export or import restrictions. The

denial of any licence or permit shall not entitle the Buyer to cancel the sale contract or delay payment of the lot.

12. ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHTS

12.1 In addition to the Purchase Price, lots indicated with this symbol (Δ) may qualify for and be subject to payment by the Buyer of the Artist’s

Resale Right at a percentage of the Hammer Price calculated as follows:

From €1,000 to €50,000 4%

From €50,001 to €200,000 3%

From €200,001 to €350,000 1%

From €350,001 to €500,000 0.5%

€12,500 for any single lot.

Central Bank.

13. DATA PROTECTION

13.1 Cheffins will request and use personal information from clients in connection with the business carried out by Cheffins, including for the

provision of auction-related services, client administration, marketing, the supply of client services, or as required by law, and may be disclosed

level of protection for clients’ information as provided within the European Union, wherever the third party may be located. By consenting to

these Conditions of Business, clients agree to such disclosure.

full force and effect. Should any provision of these Conditions of Business be deemed unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions

shall remain in full force and effect.

16.7 These Conditions of Business are not assignable by any Buyer or Seller without Cheffins’ prior written consent, but are binding on the Buyer’s
