Shipping Info

As the buyer, you are responsible for pick up or delivery/shipment. As a courtesy, the auction house has made arrangements with a variety of third-party shippers to provide shipping quotes for you. All property must be paid for and removed from the National Liberty Museum within 15 business days of the auction unless special arrangements are agreed upon in writing before the sale. Once your invoice is paid, the shipping process begins. A separate credit card payment to the shipping company will be necessary. Shipping by common carrier (UPS, FedEx, DHL or USPS): We have engaged 3rd party shippers to pick up from the NLM Once we receive payment and the completed shipping form authorizing the release of your property to the shipper, we will add your lot(s) to the list for the next pick up. You will receive a shipping quote for your approval within 48 hours after the shipper has picked up your lot(s). If for any reason the quote is not acceptable to you, your property will be returned to the Museum so that you can make alternate arrangements. Shipping larger items by freight: Freight is for, bulky or odd-shaped items that exceed allowable dimensions or weight restrictions of UPS, Fed Ex, and similar carriers. The NLM can provide assistance in arranging for delivery by freight. Depending on the location, we can recommend a variety of third-party shippers. We will also work with the freight company of your choosing. Please keep in mind that delivery of these types of items can be an expensive proposition. We urge you to consider this before bidding, as it is your responsibility to pay for all deliveries. We also highly recommend insuring your items for their full value during shipping. If you choose to do without the insurance coverage, we require a signed waiver from you stating that you accept full liability for any damage that may occur in shipment. Under no circumstances will the NLM be held responsible for items entrusted to a third party shipper. It is a rare occurrence, but if your item arrives damaged, you must keep all packaging materials. Notify the NLM immediately. Take photographs of the damage to the box as well as the item. A representative from the shipping company will make an appointment to come and inspect the damage and begin the claim process. If you have any other questions about how to take possession of your property, please call Holly Smith at 215-925-2800x 126 or send her an e-mail. Pick-Up Regular hours for pick up are Monday – Friday, from 11:00 a.m to 4:00 p.m. We require 24 hours’ notice in advance of pick up. Read more

Terms & Conditions

TERMS OF SALE National Liberty Museum Live Auction 215-925-2800 (p) 215-925-3800 (f) (Hereafter referred to as "Museum") All property sold by The National Liberty Museum is sold "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" unless otherwise specified. The bidder assumes the full responsibility for inspecting and evaluating the property prior to bidding and must make an independent judgment as to the property, its value, and the accuracy of any descriptions or information provided about the property. The National Liberty Museum is a registered 501-c (3) charitable organization. If the price you pay for a piece exceeds the fair market value of the piece as stated in the auction catalog, the excess portion of the price may be deductible as a charitable contribution. Please consult with your tax advisor or preparer for details. All bidders are responsible for reading and understanding these Terms of Sale, as well as any supplemental notices. If you have any questions after having read the Terms of Sale, please contact Meegan Coll, at mcoll@libertymuseum.org or 215-925-2800, extension 117. 1. General Each lot in this catalog is offered for sale subject to the terms set out below, as changed or supplemented by provisions a) written in other places within these Terms of Sale, b) in written supplements to this Catalog or other materials prepared by us and c) as stated by the auctioneer or posted in writing at the auction, prior to a bid being accepted for a lot. No other communications by any employee of the Museum is intended to be binding, and such communications are made for informational purposes only. By bidding at the auction, the buyer and all bidders agree to be bound by these terms or those changed and supplemented, whether bidding in person, through a representative, by phone, by the internet, or other absentee bids. Upon the announcement by the auctioneer, the successful bidder becomes the buyer and is immediately responsible for the amount of the successful bid, the buyer's premium, applicable taxes, and other charges provided for in the Terms of Sale. Sales Results: Results will be available by phone. Sales results will be available no earlier than 5 p.m. on our first business day following the auction or as soon as the Museum has audited and verified all sales. Please do not call prior to this time for results, as they will not be given out under any circumstances. We thank you for your understanding in this matter. The Museum retains all rights to copyright and other intellectual property contained in this catalog. 2. Buyers Premium, Purchase Price, and Billing Buyer's Premium/Purchase Price: a buyer's premium in the amount of 18% of the successful high bid will be added to the amount of the successful bid price. The buyers premium on property purchased on BidSquare will be in the amount of 18% of the successful high bid regardless of payment method. All bidding at auction and all purchases will be in U.S. Dollars. Billing: All successful bidders will be sent invoices by mail on the next business day after the auction. Upon the fall of the auctioneer's hammer, the successful bidder becomes the buyer and owner of the property and is responsible for the property, the amount of the successful bid, the buyer's premium, and other charges provided for in the Terms of Sale in U.S. Dollars, payable immediately. 3. Methods of Payment and Fees Cash. Check. Wire Transfers. Visa. MasterCard. Discover. American Express. Pay Pal. All payments are due immediately upon receipt of invoice. We reserve the right to hold all goods paid for by check until payment has cleared. If payment is not received from BidSquare buyers within 10 (ten) days from the day we mail the invoice, we will have no choice but to place an NPB on the Buyers account. If payment is not received within thirty (30) days of the sale, the Museum reserves the right to impose from the date of sale a late charge of 1 1/2% a month of the total purchase price and deny all future credit. 4. Bidding Increments See the attached schedule The auctioneer has the sole and exclusive power, discretion and authority to regulate the bidding and its increments. 7. Absentee Bids We accept absentee bids by phone, by mail, in person, or by fax. Absentee bids are requested by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the business day before the auction. If you fax your absentee bids, please call us to confirm receipt. All absentee bidding is handled as though you are in attendance. We buy all designated lots for you one bidding increment above where competition stops. Please check and comply with these increments. In case of failure to comply, we will reduce each off-increment bid to the next lower figure. "Plus" bids: Because of our structured bidding increments, it is more likely that several people will leave identical bids. Since an earlier bid left with the museum wins in the event of a tie, a later bid with an added "plus" bid to the next increment would win the piece. (NOTE: Absentee bids left on Live Auctioneers are sent to the museum during the actual sale. There is no time advantage to these bids at all.) All absentee bidder names and bids are held in strictest confidence, disclosed only in the event of a question after the sale. Absentee bidding is a convenience offered to our customers and, while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, the Museum is not liable or responsible for any errors or failure to do so. If you place absentee bids with the Museum, then choose to attend in person, bid by phone or any other means, it is solely your responsibility to cancel any or all absentee bids prior to the start of the auction. 8. Telephone Bids Lines are available on a first-come, first-served basis please reserve as soon as you are able. We want to hear from you no later than 12 noon on the business day before the auction. Please call to set up all phone line requests. Do not fax phone line requests. Determine the lots on which you most want to bid before calling and reserving the lines. If you need condition reports, please request and review them prior to reserving phone lines. We will call you at one phone number ONLY during the auction. If you are unsure of where you or your agent will be during the sale, we recommend you leave absentee bids. All requests for overseas telephone lines must be accompanied by absentee bids, which will be executed on the buyer's behalf, should there be any problems with telephone connections. Your phone number and lots will be confirmed the day before the auction. Please do not change your phone number after your phone lines have been confirmed; if you do, the Museum reserves the right to not allow you to bid by telephone in that auction and will not be responsible for any breakdown in communications. We strongly recommend landlines, as, to date, they are more reliable than cellular phones. One of the reasons people bid by phone is to monitor how much they are spending. However, if you bid by phone, you must be willing to bid to the low estimate should the bidding go that far. There is no exception to this rule. You may, however, leave absentee bids for any amount. Bids are placed on the telephone at the discretion of the Museum and at the callers' risk. Telephone bidding is a convenience offered to our customers and, while we will make every effort to execute your instructions, the Museum is not liable or responsible for any errors or failure to do so. 9. Internet Bids The Museum has engaged the services of BidSquare as a service for its clients who wish to bid and buy online. Please proceed to bidsquare.com for all necessary information on how to bid and buy online using this system. The user of Bidsquare indemnifies and holds the Museum and its consignors harmless against any claim arising out of or resulting from your use of the Bidsquare site, including all losses, damages, liabilities, and all fees (including attorneys fees), costs, and expenses incurred in connection with any claim.

Auctioneers Determination Final A lot will be sold to the highest bidder as determined in the sole and exclusive judgment of the auctioneer. The auctioneer will also have the sole and exclusive power and authority to a) resolve any disputes between bidders, b) determine whether to pass or re-offer a lot for sale, c) reject or challenge any bid or advance in the bidding, d) exclude any bidder from the premises and e) otherwise regulate the bidders, the bidding and its increments. 11. Reserves A reserve is the confidential minimum price established by the Museum and the consignor. If bids on a lot fail to reach the reserve, the lot will be passed. 12.
