Description
Lots are believed to be correctly described but no warranty is given or implied. They are sold subject to all faults and imperfections (if any), and no omission or misprint shall invalidate a sale or be made the subject of any claim whatsoever.

The Auctioneer reserves the right of admission. The conduct of the sale shall be at his sole discretion. The decision of the Auctioneer shall be final and binding on all parties.

Method of Tendering
Buyers may tender for individual lots, for sections or for the whole. Buyers will accept the lots where they lie and refer to the form of Tender for description and quantity. Clearance is under the supervision of the Auctioneer. Buyers are expected to make their own arrangements for clearing their lots and shall be at their own expense. Purchasers have no rights to goods not described in the form of Tender.

Completion of Tender Forms

Acceptance of Tenders
Purchasers will be informed of the acceptance of Tenders as soon as possible. The Vendor does not undertake to accept the highest or any tender and reserves the right to withdraw all or some of the goods from the advertised sale at any time before a purchaser is declared. The Auctioneer cannot, under any circumstances, be held responsible should this occur. If amongst the highest Tenders there are one or more bids of equal amounts the Auctioneer shall declare the purchaser(s)

Insurance
As from the date and time the purchaser(s) is/are declared the goods shall be at the sole risk of the purchaser and neither the Auctioneer nor the Vendor will be held responsible for any loss or damage by fire, burglary or any other cause whatsoever.

Title of goods will pass when the moneys have been paid in full and the sale invoice issued.

Any deficiency from such re-sale, together with all costs, shall be made good by the defaulter.

Clearance
No clearance shall take place until all moneys have been paid in full. Purchasers shall provide at their own expense all necessary transport, staff etc. Clearance must take place strictly in accordance with the arrangements made with the Auctioneer.

Defaults by Buyers
Failure to comply with these conditions shall in no way invalidate the conditions of sale should the purchaser fail to pay in full by the specified time or fail to remove goods within the time arranged with the Auctioneer, without prejudice to the Vendors rights, the Auctioneer will make such arrangements as he thinks appropriate to dispose of any unclaimed lots and the purchaser shall be liable for any deficiency and expense involved in the re-sale.
