CONDITIONS OF SALE

1. CATALOGUING

Whilst Lawrences make every effort to ensure accuracy in the cataloguing of lots offered for sale, each lot is offered for sale by the vendor with any imperfections or errors of descriptions. All measurements are to be taken as approximate.

Lawrences do not accept responsibility as to the authenticity, date, age, period, provenance, attribution or condition of any lot. All statements either printed in the catalogue or made orally regarding the above are statements of opinion only and are not to be taken as implying any warranties or representations of fact by Lawrences.

2. THE AUCTION

The Auctioneer has absolute discretion to divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding or cancel the sale without giving any reason or without prior notice. He may bid on behalf of the vendor for all goods which are being offered, subject to reserve or at the Auctioneers discretion.

The highest bidder shall be the buyer except in the case of a dispute. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen, he has absolute discretion to settle it or to re-offer the lot.

Each lot is offered for sale subject to any reserve price placed by the vendor.

Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within 21 days after the sale the Buyer of any lot returns the same to Lawrences in the same condition as at the time of sale and satisfies Lawrences that considered in the light of entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery, the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded in full. In event of a dispute then the matter shall be settled by arbitration, the arbitrator to be nominated by the President of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. Both the buyer and the vendor agree to be bound by the decision.

c) Lawrences disclaim responsibility for default by either the buyer or vendor as they act as agents for the vendor only and therefore do not pay out to the vendor until payment is received from the buyer. Instructions given by telephone are accepted at the senders risk and must be confirmed in writing.

4. BUYERS CONDITIONS:
