Catalogues
Grev Wedels Plass Auksjoner (GWPA) prepares catalogues containing photographs and descriptions of all lots to be auctioned. Great emphasis is placed on ensuring that the information given is exact and as complete as possible.

Auction estimate
The catalogues' auction estimates are based on market evaluations and serve as a guideline for potential buyers. Our auction prices are available through leading artprice databases.

Reserve price
Some of the lots on auction may have a reserve price. Normally the reserve price is below the lowest value of the auction estimate printed in the catalogue. Bids below 80% of the lowest estimate will only exceptionally be taken into consideration.

Customer Services (CS)
CS handles all written bids handed in prior to the auction. With several written bids on the same lot above the seller's reserve price, CS will bid on behalf of the highest bidder. CS ends bidding just above the second highest written bid, and will apply for buying the object at the lowest price possible. If only one written bid exists, CS will bid on behalf of the bidder on the lowest possible sum above the seller's reserve price.

Guarantee
Grev Wedels Plass Auksjoner is responsible for the correctness and layout of the catalogue. During preview, the buyer has the opportunity to view the object and its condition, and condition reports for all lots are available on request. GWPA can therefore not accept any claims from buyers not taking advantage of the examination facilities offered. Any complaints must be put forward no later than 30 days after the auction date.
