PURCHASE CONDITIONS AT AN AUCTION
Article 1 - Registration
a. In order to be considered a buyer or a potential buyer, the registration is necessary before the auction starts and the bidding number is assigned. In order to register, the potential buyer must be of legal majority and supply the information regarding his/her civil and tax identification, as well as his/her address and phone number, and stating upon registration that he/she knows and accepts the present terms and conditions.
b. VERITAS may require the presentation of a valid and original document for identification.
c. VERITAS considers that the potential buyer acts on his/her own behalf, except when as a representative of a third party, in which case a valid power of attorney must be provided.

Article 2 - Right of Admission
a. VERITAS reserves the right of admission, presence, or registration at their auctions, as well as the right to ignore any bid that has not adequately complied to these terms and conditions, namely in regards to payment obligations and picking up the goods bought at previous auctions.
b. A guarantee for the amount and method of payment can be requested at any time to any potential buyer.

Article 3 - Bidding and buying
a. VERITAS considers that the best way to participate in an auction is for the potential buyer to be physically present, except when the auction is held exclusively online. If this is not possible, there are two alternatives available to participate in the auction:
i. Written bidding, without adversely affecting what is anticipated on the previous articles, the auctioneer can bid on behalf and at the expense of the potential buyers who explicitly request it on an adequate form that should be filled in according to the instructions there listed, as long as this form is received at least 3(three) hours before the auction starts;
ii. Bidding by phone, which can be requested by the buyer, by previously indicating which lots he/she wants to bid on the phone, as well as indicating the telephone number(s) through which he/she can be contacted with a minimum of a 3(three) hour notice before the auction starts. A phone bid implies that the buyer is committed to at least cover the minimum estimate on the portfolio. If it is not possible, for any reason, to call the potential buyer on the phone, VERITAS reserves the right to bid on his/her behalf for the minimum value on the portfolio for that (those) specific lot(s).
b. The services mentioned on this article, specifically the written and phone bidding service, are provided as a courtesy to potential buyers who cannot attend the auction, and are as such classified and free of charge.
c. Despite what is mentioned above, VERITAS, as well as its employees, representatives, or co-operators, must not be held accountable for any mistake, error, or failure that may occur, even if it is their fault.
d. VERITAS cannot act on its own behalf as a buyer at an auction.
e. VERITAS considers a buyer to be the person who has registered or is adequately represented by a third party, bids and buys for the highest bid, in which case the auctioneer must decide with an utter discretionary power upon any doubt that arises during the auction, and he/she can withdraw or put back in auction any lot.
f. In an exclusively held online auction, all registered bids made by online bidders are purchase and sale contracts and are considered final and binding. Should two bidders make an equal maximum offer, only the first one received by VERITAS shall be valid.

Article 4 - Rising Bids
a. With an utter and complete discretionary power, it is up to VERITAS to decide the amount added between bids for each lot, though it must never exceed the previous bid by more than 10%, nor can he/she accept a bid below €10.
b. The auctioneer has the right to refuse any bid that does not exceed the previous bid in at least 5%.
c. In an exclusively held online auction, the increments required for each bid are indicated in the bidding interface and lower bids will not be accepted.

Article 5 - Condition and description of the lots
The lots taken to auction will be bought where and in the condition they are in, and it is the potential buyer's responsibility to analyse their condition during their public exhibition on the days before the auction, as well as how accurate the description on the portfolio, references to possible restorations, flaws, faults, and imperfections.

c. Once these 5(five) business days are through, the auctioneer reserves the right to charge interest at the legal rate for commercial transactions.
d. The lots purchased by the buyer can only be picked up once the total amount is paid to the auctioneer.

Article 7 - Ownership of the purchased goods or lots
a. The ownership of the purchased good or lot is only transferred to the buyer once the auctioneer is paid the total amount in cash, certified check, or bank transfer. In case the payment is made with a non-certified check, the total amount is only considered paid for once the check is credited, no matter if the good or lot is already with the buyer, or not.
b. While the ownership transfer conditions mentioned above are not verified, the lot remains property of the seller.
Article 8 - Pick-up and transportation of the purchased goods or lots
a. Handling, packaging, picking up, and transportation of the purchased lot(s) are the buyer's sole responsibility.

b. 5(five) business days after the purchase, if the goods have not been picked up by the buyer, he/she will be accountable for any loss or damage that may occur to it. The buyer is also accountable for all the expenses of applicable removal, storage, and/or insurance.
c. In case the good is partially or completely paid for, but has not been picked up within 5(five) business days as mentioned above, and a loss or damage of the good occurs, including theft or robbery, the buyer is only entitled to receiving the amount paid to date for the good, and there is no place for a compensation or interest.

Article 9 - Lack of payment or missed pick-up for acquired goods or lots

vi. The situations mentioned above must be understood without harm of any other rights that VERITAS may have, such as the right to demand payment of interest, handling, packaging, transportation, storage, and insurance expenses that may have taken place.
b. The buyer who has not picked up the acquired lot(s), in spite having paid for it/them, will be the only one accountable for all the costs regarding handling, packaging, transportation, storage, and insurance expenses, and it is up to VERITAS to decide if the storage is made at their own warehouse or at a third- third-party.

The buyer acknowledges and agrees that the buyer has taken the opportunity to inspect the goods and undertaken all due diligence in relation to those goods, by having the goods tested, the veracity of the provenance and source of the goods established by an expert or experts and obtaining any report or reports that the buyer requires in relation to those goods. The buyer hereby indemnifies and holds safe ARDENT in relation to any matter, manner or thing, either directly or indirectly related to the goods the subject of the sale, which have been purchased by the buyer and accepts the goods as are, where are, and will claim no compensation, damages, nor make any claim against ARDENT in relation to any fault, either patent or latent in the goods, shortages in quantity, miss description of provenance, source quality or any other matter, manner or thing related in any way to the goods, directly or indirectly.

Payment of goods

21 The buyer agrees that the buyer will pay by cash, EFT, bank transfer, credit card, VISA, MasterCard and Debit card, however ARDENT does not accept payment by Cheque, American Express or Diners Club card.

22 All credit card transactions will be charged a 2% (plus GST) surcharge added to the amount charged to the buyer in relation to the sale and purchase of the goods.

ARDENT Buyers Premium / Commission

23 The buyer will pay to ARDENT a buyer's premium hereafter referred to as commission. The commission will be calculated upon the gross action sale price of the goods sold in respect of any lot, at the rate of commission listed in the catalogue for that particular auction, plus GST. The commission shall be paid at the same time as the gross auction sale price for the goods is paid by the buyer to ARDENT.
24 Where the commission does not appear due to omission in the sale catalogue the rate of commission will be deemed to be 18%. Commission can also be varied by written agreement between buyer and Ardent prior to auction.

Collection of purchase

25 All goods the subject of a purchase by a buyer shall be paid for on the day of the auction and removed from the ARDENT auction rooms, or the place where the auction has taken place, within two business days of the date of the sale, or at the time specified by the auctioneer at the beginning of the sale, where that is different to the two business days.
26 Buyers are responsible for the collection of the goods of the lot that the buyer has purchased, and the cost of any crane, forklift, lifting device or carrying device for the goods, and neither ARDENT nor the seller have any obligation to the buyer, other than to present the goods as the goods were situated during the course of the auction at which the goods were sold. Accordingly, in respect of any goods whereby any lifting device or equipment is required to remove those goods from the place where the auction took place, then the provision of that equipment, plant, or lifting facility shall be arranged and paid for by the buyer.

27 Normally, ARDENT is under no responsibility or obligation to a buyer to resell goods where the buyer does not wish to accept same after being the successful buyer. ARDENT may at its absolute discretion, refuse to resell such goods on behalf of the buyer at a subsequent auction of ARDENT. Unless otherwise agreed in writing the buyer must pay on the day of the auction and remove the goods of any lot from the premises within two business day after the fall of the hammer of the last lot in which the lot purchased by the buyer formed part.

Seller of the goods

28 The buyer agrees and acknowledges that in relation to the lot and the goods the subject of the sale and/or auction, ARDENT is simply an agent acting for and on behalf of the seller of those goods and that the contractual arrangement in relation to the purchase of those goods is as between the buyer and the seller of the goods, and that ARDENT has no part in this process, except as to act as the authorised and exclusive agent of the seller.

Return of goods

29 Where a buyer contends and /or asserts that buyer has the right at law or otherwise to return goods the subject of a lot at any auction, the buyer must within five (5) business days of the fall of the hammer for the last lot at the auction of which the goods formed part of a lot, advise ARDENT in writing, as follows…
29.1 that the buyer believes that the buyer is not required to accept the goods in the lot;
29.2 the reasons why the buyer contends that the buyer is not required to accept the goods in the lot;
29.3 what it is that the buyer wishes ARDENT to do about the goods, the subject of the lot; and
29.4 a description of all of the issues that the buyer has in relation to the goods the subject of the lot, whereby the buyer considers that the buyer has the right to return such goods to ARDENT (the "rejection notice").

30 ARDENT will advise the buyer in writing within five (5) business days of receipt of the rejection notice as to whether the seller will accept the goods by return, or if the seller will not, the reasons why the seller will not accept the return of the goods, and will do so in writing.

31 Where the seller agrees to accept goods by return, the goods must be in the same condition as they were when they left the auction room of ARDENT after the auction of which they were a part, and returned to the office address of ARDENT by the buyer at the cost of the buyer.

32 Upon receipt of the goods in the same condition as that when sold, ARDENT will return to the buyer the gross auction price and the buyer's commission, less a 5% handling and admin fee, and will do so within five (5) business days of the receipt of the goods.

Title of goods

33 Title in the goods, the subject of the sale, shall not pass to the buyer unless and until the payment by the buyer is cleared funds into the account of ARDENT. Should the buyer pay ARDENT by cheque or in a manner by which the payment is not honoured, then upon dishonour of that payment, ARDENT shall on behalf of seller and itself be at liberty to make claim against the buyer for the costs relevant to the purchase of those goods, including the demand for payment of the gross auction sale price of the goods, any costs relevant to the goods, the buyer's commission, any legal or collection costs relevant to the funds that should have been paid to ARDENT buy the buyer, interest, storage and bank fees.

34 Where the buyer does not make payment for the goods and does not collect such goods, ARDENT reserves the right at the absolute discretion of ARDENT to re-sell the goods at a subsequent auction and make claim against the buyer for any deficiency in and costs related to the original sale of the goods to the buyer and the subsequent sale of the goods to another buyer, advertising, insurance, transport costs, storage and loss of commission.

35 Before reselling the goods at a subsequent auction, ARDENT will send a notice of its intention to do so by prepaid ordinary post or email to the address or addresses provided by the buyer to ARDENT.

Changing the agreement

36 The terms and conditions of this agreement may not be varied by either party except in writing signed by both parties.

GST

37 Where the catalogue in respect of a lot and/or goods purchased by a buyer shows that the sale of that lot or those goods attracts GST, then upon providing the gross auction sale price of the goods, the buyer will also provide GST in relation to that purchase upon being provided by ARDENT with a tax invoice evidencing the amount of GST payable.
