INFORMATION
CONDITIONS OF SALE
Each lot contains an estimated market value obtained from sources the Curatorial Board for Art with Heart believes to be reliable, but no representation or warranty as to the actual resale value of any work being auctioned is made or implied. The estimated value is intended as a guide to assist you in your bidding. All lots are being offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential price below which the lot will not be sold.
LIVE AUCTION
All bids per lot as numbered, unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale.
All bidders must be registered to bid and provide a valid credit card number. If your bid is successful, your credit card will be charged unless alternative arrangements are made prior to leaving the auction. Title to the offered lot will then pass to you, and you will thereupon assume full risk and responsibility for the work purchased by you. Transportation may be arranged.
If the auctioneer determines that any opening bid is not commensurate with the estimated value of the work offered, he may reject same and withdraw the work from sale, and, if having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he may reject the advance and withdraw the work from sale.
In the event of any dispute between bidders, a missed bid, or in the event of doubt as to the validity of any bid, the auctioneer will have, at his discretion, the final authority either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the work in dispute.
If any dispute arises after the auction, the Art with Heart record of the auction proceedings shall be conclusive.
GENERAL RULES FOR LIVE AUCTION
All sales are final. No purchase can be returned, refunded, or exchanged. All property is sold as is, as exhibited. If the final purchase price is equal to or greater than 120% of the estimated value, the purchaser will be issued a charitable tax receipt for the difference between the estimate and the selling price.
Successful bidders should be prepared to pay for their purchases in cash, American Express, MasterCard, Visa, or by personal cheque payable to Casey House Foundation on the evening of the auction. No GST, PST or auction commission is applicable.
Art with Heart reserves the right to withdraw any work of art at any time before the actual sale.
Casey House Foundation makes no warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to any work of art including, but not limited to, any representation or warranty of description, genuineness, attribution, provenance, or physical condition, nor as to the right of reproduction, if any. Bidders and purchasers may not rely upon any statement of Casey House Foundation, oral or otherwise, other than as set forth in these conditions of sale.
PICK-UP
All works must be paid for at the conclusion of the auction evening. Purchasers must pick up works at the conclusion of the auction evening upon proof of payment.
Casey House Foundation is not responsible for acts or omissions of carriers or packers of purchased lots, whether or not recommended by it. Packing and handling of purchased lots are at the entire risk of the purchaser.
