GENERAL

1. Tracks Ltd will act as agent to consignors and buyers in the sale of all items listed in auctions published on www.tracksauctions.com. As part of all auctions, Tracks Ltd. will also sell a selection of lots as Principal.

2. Tracks Ltd undertakes no obligation to you to examine, investigate or carry out any tests by outside independent companies on each lot to establish the accuracy of any descriptions or opinions given by Tracks Ltd, or by any person on Tracks Ltd.’s behalf, whether on the website or anywhere else. You should not suppose that such examinations, investigations or tests have occurred. All descriptions or opinions provided by Tracks Ltd. are given honestly and take into consideration all information and opinions available at the time of consignment, using both information provided by the consignor and our own knowledge and expertise.

3. Buyers are advised to examine in person any items listed in the auction in which they are interested in bidding. Condition reports are available for all items in the auction and we strongly recommend that all customers request a report for any item in which they are interested before placing a bid. If buyers make no attempt to view the item in person and/or if they do not request a condition report, further relevant information or photographs then Tracks Ltd. can accept no liability for buyers’ dissatisfaction with the condition of an item once it has been received. Tracks Ltd. reserves the right to change any details within any description at any time until the lot is sold.

4. Please note that due to the nature of the lots sold in our auctions, items will rarely be in mint condition and are likely to show signs of wear and tear, imperfections and repair, due to their age.

5. All lots are covered by Tracks Ltd.’s insurance policy while they are in our possession. Tracks Ltd. maintains insurance against theft, loss, damage or destruction of items, once in our possession, equivalent to the agreed reserve price of the item. If no reserve price has been agreed between the consignor and Tracks Ltd for any item consigned to an auction, it will be covered up to the agreed low estimate. Our insurance policy will cover all items until they leave the Tracks Ltd. premises.

By bidding or consigning to this auction you agree that all transactions and connected matters will be defined by and undertaken in accordance with these laws, and you therefore submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the United Kingdom.
