10. COMMISSIONS BIDS

 

Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular Lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids in their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any neglect or default in so doing or failing to do so. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

 

We regret that we are unable to accept telephone bids on items estimated below £500.

 

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

 

1.         Introduction.   The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms.  All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues.  Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

 

2.         Agency.   As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed.  Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

 

3.         Estimates.   Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot.  The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it.  Estimates do not include the Buyers Premium or VAT (where chargeable).  Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale.  They are in no sense definitive.

 

4.         Buyer’s Premium.   The Conditions of Sale oblige buyers to pay a buyer’s premium at 15% on the hammer price of each lot purchased.  In addition, VAT will be added to this premium (see below).  

Please note that any lots purchased via the-saleroom.com live auction service will be subject to an additional 3% commission charge + VAT at the rate imposed on the hammer price

 

 

5.         V.A.T. (*) indicates that VAT is payable by the purchaser at the standard rate (presently 20%) on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium.  This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK.  The double symbol (**) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of Vat (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium).  Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price.  This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.

 

6.         Condition of lots.  Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale.  Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and neither the seller nor we as the auctioneers accept any responsibility for their condition.  In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order.  However, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made.  There is a 21 days’ time limit.  (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

 

7.         Condition reports.  We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by posting or faxing a condition report, but these reports are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy.  Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view.  (Please see our Conditions of Sale).

 

8.         Electrical goods.  These are sold as ‘antiques’only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

 

9.         Export of goods.  Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing goods of that character because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory.  Ask us if you need help.

 

10.       Bidding.  Bidders may be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form.  Some form of identification may be required if you are unknown to us.  Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

 

11        Commission bidding.  Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium.  They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids.  If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received.  Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or FAX. All bids must be received by 4pm the day before the sale.

 

12.       Methods of Payment.   As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted.  Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged.  (except cash).

 

13.       Collection and storage.  Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage.  It is importantthat goods are paid for and collected promptly.  Any delay may involve the buyer in paying our storage charges.

 

14.       † = Buyers Premium and other charges may apply.

The full Christian name(s) and the surname of the artist In our opinion a genuine work painted by the artist

Attributed to… In our opinion probably a mark by the artist; e.g. Attributed to John Moore

The initials of the Christian names and surname of the artist In our opinion a work which may be possibly or partly by the artist

The words Studio of… In our opinion a work from the studio of the artist which may or may not have been executed under his immediate influence; e.g. Studio of John Moore.

The phrase Circle of… In our opinion a work of the period of the artist executed under immediate influence, e.g. Circle of John Moore

The word ‘after’ associated with the surname of the artist In our opinion a copy of the work of the artist

The words Follower of… In our opinion a work by a painter working in the artist’s style, contemporary or nearly contemporary, but not necessarily a pupil; e.g. Follower of John Moore

The words Manner of… In our opinion a work in a style related to that of the artist, but of a later date; e.g. Manner of John Moore

Care is taken to ensure that any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date, age, provenance and condition is reliable and accurate but all such statements of origin and are not to be taken as statements of representation of fact. Diamond Mills & Co. Fine Art Auctioneers, reserve the right in forming their option to consult and rely upon any expert authority reasonably considered by them to be reliable. Where ‘*’ is shown, this indicates that the conventional term in this glossary is not appropriate but, in our opinion the work is work of the artist named.

Should any oil painting be executed on paper whether stated in the catalogue or not, this shall in no way give rise to rescission of purchases or claim for damages by the purchaser.

Paintings may be painted on panel, canvas or paper and the Auctioneers bear no responsibility whatsoever to point out whatever

the medium the painting may be executed on. Nor do they bear the responsibility to point out that a painting may be coloured over a photographic background and in no way shall such a matter rescind a sale or give rise to a claim for damages by the purchaser.

A picture catalogued as School accompanied by the name of a place, country or date means that that in our opinion the picture was

executed at the time and in that location; e.g. Suffolk School, 19th Century.

The phrase Bears signature and/or date and/or an inscription means that in our opinion the artist’s name and/or date and/or inscription have been added by another hand.

All references to signature, inscriptions and dates refer to the present state of the work. Dimensions are given height before width
