We are not liable for any damage to merchandise after the sale.

 

CCAG is not responsible for any damage or loss on property purchased but not removed from premises. If the purchased property is not removed within thirty (30) days of the sale, the buyer will thereafter be assessed a $10.00 per lot storage charge per day.  CCAG may, in its discretion, remove the purchased items to public storage at the buyer’s risk and expense. All associated charges will be added to the total invoice and must be paid in full before the items will be released.

 

CONDITION

 

CCAG does not accept returns on the basis of condition. It is the buyer’s responsibility to inquire as to the condition of a specific lot prior to bidding.  CCAG does not include condition in the description of the lot. Please email all condition requests to info@crescentcityauctiongallery.com and include all contact information. Condition requests are answered in the order received. Condition reports will not be given by telephone under any circumstances.

 

The deadline to submit condition report requests is 5p.m. on the Wednesday before the auction. Following that time, CCAG cannot assure completion of the condition report prior to auction. Condition requests placed on auction day will not be answered.  CCAG reserves the right to close the Condition Report desk at any time.

 

Do not bid if you have not received a condition report. All potential buyers should be sure they have read and agree to the Conditions of Sale.
