7. Remedies for non-payment or failure to collect purchases
In the event that a buyer fails to pay for or collect a Lot, Rowley's may at it's absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies it may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies:
A. Issue proceedings against a Buyer for breach of contract together with cost of any proceedings on a full indemnity basis.
B. To rescind the sale of that or any other Lots sold to the Buyer at the same or any other auction.
C. To re-sell the Lot or cause it to be resold by public sale or private treaty. Any deficiency in the purchase price resulting from any such re-sale, together with any costs incurred in connection with the Lot, shall be paid to Rowley's by the original Buyer and any surplus after deduction of costs and charges shall be due to the original Buyer.
D. To charge interest on any outstanding monies at the rate of 1.5% per month or part thereof to the extent they remain unpaid for more than 48 hours from the date of the sale.

8. Condition of Lots
A. All catalogue descriptions, verbal descriptions and advertisements for sales concerning attribution, genuineness, authorship, origin, period, date, age, provenance, quality, condition or estimated selling price are statements of opinion only and are not to be taken as statements or representations of fact nor the basis for any warranty or guarantee. Many Lots will be of an age that precludes them being in perfect condition and purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the condition of any Lot by examining that Lot before the auction.

B. Refund Policy. In certain circumstances, where lots have been mis-described, lots may be returned, within a four week period from the date of the auction, and a refund of the hammer price, buyer's premium and associated VAT made.


C. All conditions, warranties, terms, undertakings and obligations implied by statute, common law, custom, trade usage or otherwise (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any express or implied condition, warranty or undertaking as to correspondence of the goods with any contract description given, merchantable quality or fitness for any particular purpose) are hereby wholly excluded. If the Buyer deals as a consumer as defined by Section 12 of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 and the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contract Regulations 1994 the above provision shall not apply insofar as they purport to affect the Buyer's statutory rights under the Sale of Goods Act 1979 as amended.

C. Jewellery: Historically many gem stones have been subject to a variety of treatments to enhance their appearance. Treatments such as heat treatment, treatment with oils or resin, staining, irradiation or coating may have been used on most gem stones. Some treatments may be permanent whilst others may need special care or re-treatment over the years to retain their appearance. Prospective buyers should be aware that Rowley's pre-sale estimates assume that gem stones may have been subjected to such treatments.

D. Clocks & Watches: As is to be expected with clocks and watches, particularly those of some age, it is likely that they will have been repaired and parts may have been replaced. As stated above, all lots including those comprising clocks and watches are sold on an "as is" basis, subject to all faults, imperfections and errors of description. This means that no guarantee is given that any clock or watch works reliably, if at all.

9. Absentee Bids
All intending Buyers are advised to attend the auction. Where circumstances do not permit this, Rowley's will, if instructed in writing not less that 48 hours in advance of the auction, execute bids on behalf of intending buyers by Commission or Telephone but Rowley's it's employees or agents, will not be liable to the Buyer or the Seller for any neglect or default in so doing or for failure to do so. Any instructions so given shall be deemed to be irrevocable unless agreed otherwise by Rowley's at any time prior to the auction.

Commission bids will be dealt with in strict order of receipt. Therefore when two or more bids of the same amount for the same Lot are received, the first commission received shall be the Buyer if the bid is successful. Telephone lines for absentee bidders will be allocated on a first come first served basis.

Rowley's also offer online bidding services via the-saleroom.com, invaluable.com and bidonthis.co.uk for bidders who cannot attend the sale but Rowley's, its employees or agents, will not be liable to the Buyer or the Seller for any neglect or default by either the-saleroom.com, invaluable.com or bidonthis.com.

10. Electrical and mechanical goods
A seller who consigns electrical and mechanical goods to Rowley's warrants and undertakes to Rowley's and to the Buyer that at the date on which the goods are consigned to Rowley's they are safe if used for the purpose for which they were designed and free from any defect not obvious on external inspection which could be dangerous to human life or health and will indemnify Rowley's , it's employees and agents, against any loss or damage suffered by any of them due to the breach of the above warranty and undertaking.

11. Photographs
The Buyer gives Rowley's the absolute right to use any photographs or illustrations of any Lots at any time and in any way at Rowley's discretion whether or not in connection with any auction. The copyright of all illustrations and written matter relating to Lots remains at all times the absolute property of Rowley's.

12. Buyer's VAT status
Where the Buyer is a VAT registered person or business then prior to the auction all relevant information regarding VAT status must be given to Rowley's which the Buyer warrants will be correct. Once a Lot has been purchased on the basis of this information no alteration affecting liability to VAT can be made.

13. Data Protection
Rowley's will use information provided by its clients or obtained by Rowley's relating to its clients for the provision of auction and art-related services, market and to manage and operate its business, or as required by law. Rowley's may wish to record and video images of you and or telephone conversations for security or legal reasons or as necessary to provide a higher quality of service. Clients agree that Rowley's may use any sensitive information that they supply to Rowley's. Unless permitted by law, Rowley's will not otherwise process sensitive personal data without express consent. By agreeing to these Conditions of Business, clients agree to the processing of their personal information.

14. Export licensing regulations
Buyers should always check whether an export licence is required before exporting certain items. For further information regarding export licences please contact: The Department of Culture, Media & Sports, 2-4 Cockspur Street, London, SW1Y 5DH. Telephone 0207 211 6200.

15. Artist Resale Rights Regulations 2006
Living artist and the descendants of artist deceased within the last 70 years are entitled to receive a re-sale royalty each time their work is bought. 'ARR' derives from a European Directive and came into force in the UK in 2006. The right only applies when the sale price reaches or exceeds the sterling equivalent of €1,000 and is calculated on a sliding scale. Lots, marked (AR) in the Catalogue and which are sold for a Hammer Price (together with Buyer's Premium) of €1,000 or greater (converted into currency of sale using the European Central Bank Reference rate prevailing on the date of Sale), will be subject to the additional Re-sale Royalty fee and be payable to us by the Buyer to cover our expenses relating to the payment of royalties under the Artists Resale Right Regulations 2006. ARR is exempt of VAT.

Royalty Resale price
4% up to €50,000
3% between €50,000.01 and €200,000
1% between €200,000.01 and €350,000
0.5% between €350,000.01 and €500,000
0.25% in excess of €500,000
For further information please consult a member of staff.
