TERMS OF SALE - SCUOTTO NUMISMATICA

The Italian text of these General Conditions - see https://numismaticascuotto.bidinside.com/it/cnt/11/condizioni-di-vendita/ - will be the only one to produce effects between the Parties and may be used overriding any translation; the translation / version in English is a simple convenience for our customers.

Anyone participating in auctions organized by Scuotto - Numismatica & Collezionismo must adhere to the following terms of sale.

Authenticity of Lots
All coins, medals, watches, jewelry, collectible pens, and movable property sold in individual lots by Numismatica Scuotto di Scuotto Gaetano (hereinafter NSDSG) are guaranteed to be authentic. NSDSG certifies the authenticity of each item sold.

1. VAT REGIME (MARGIN SCHEME)
All sales conducted by Numismatica Scuotto di Scuotto Gaetano (hereinafter "NSDSG") are based on commission agreements with private consumers or VAT-registered entities operating under the margin scheme, governed by Article 40bis of Decree-Law no. 41/95 and subsequent amendments. Under this regulation, NSDSG does not apply VAT to the services provided to buyers or sellers, nor to the final hammer price of the lot.

2. BUYER'S COMMISSION
The buyer of each lot is required to pay a total amount that includes:

The hammer price of the lot.
A commission of 21% (VAT included) on the hammer price.

3. GENERAL TERMS
All items for sale are the property of third parties, who guarantee their legitimate provenance and declare they are free from liens or encumbrances (e.g., pledges, seizures, etc.). The lots are sold at public venues by NSDSG, acting as an exclusive agent in its name but on behalf of each seller, whose identity is recorded in NSDSG's Public Security registers. The effects of the sale impact solely the seller; therefore, NSDSG assumes no responsibility toward the buyer or third parties, except as part of its role as an agent. This sale constitutes an aleatory contract, and under Article 1488, paragraph 2 of the Civil Code, warranty for eviction is excluded.

4. PARTICIPATION IN THE AUCTION
Participation in the auction can occur via written bids submitted at least 24 hours before the event (both for in-person and online auctions). These bids may be submitted through the NSDSG website or other authorized platforms, by mail, email, or telephone (with subsequent written confirmation in this case). No additional fees will be charged for bid management beyond the specified commission. By signing the bid form or registering online, participants expressly and formally accept these terms.

It is possible to indicate alternative lots on the order form, provided these bids are submitted before the deadline for telephone bid requests (48 hours before the auction). NSDSG reserves the right not to accept ambiguous or unclear bids (e.g., “…% above the highest bid”). Bids must respect a minimum increment of €5 for small amounts and will be rounded accordingly.

NSDSG reserves the right to reject telephone participation requests for lots with a starting bid below €200. Telephone participation must be arranged at least 48 hours before the auction and confirmed in writing 24 hours prior, including the lot numbers, phone number, full personal details, and signature. In cases where the buyer cannot be reached by phone (e.g., busy line, incorrect number, technical issues, or data transcription errors), NSDSG is not liable.

Items are awarded to the highest bidder. NSDSG will not accept transfers of awarded lots to third parties and will hold the bidder directly responsible for payment. Bidding on behalf of third parties is permitted only with a notarized special power of attorney and appropriate bank references.

During the auction, NSDSG reserves the right to withdraw lots, combine or separate lots, or modify the order of sale at its discretion. The buyer will pay NSDSG a buyer's premium of 21% (VAT included).

For heavy lots, costs will be calculated and agreed upon before shipment.

The full payment of the hammer price and auction fees is immediately due to NSDSG and must be made within seven days of the sale. In the event of non-payment, NSDSG may take legal action or resell the lot, retaining any deposits received. NSDSG will store the item at the buyer's expense and risk until it is sold or returned to the seller, with penalties calculated on the interest of the hammer price plus two percentage points.

7. LOT DESCRIPTION AND AUTHENTICITY

The lot descriptions in the catalog are subject to public review. Items for sale are carefully examined and guaranteed as authentic, with no time limit. Buyers must inspect lots in person or appoint an expert to verify their condition before purchase; post-sale claims regarding condition or other features will not be accepted. NSDSG accepts no responsibility for errors, typos, or incorrect catalog information.
