1. By bidding with Jeffrey S. Evans & Associates either directly or through another online auction provider (e.g. Live Auctioneers), you are agreeing to abide by all associated auction terms and conditions. 2. Your bid constitutes a legally binding contract. If you bid on a lot and win (even if the bid was placed accidentally), you are liable for payment. 3. The auctioneer reserves the right to reopen bidding on a sold lot (under extreme circumstances only) and is the sole determinant concerning all bid disputes and the final authority in regard to all auction terms and conditions. 4. Each lot won is subject to a 20% buyer's premium. 5. Unless exempted by law, all purchases are subject to a 5% Virginia state sales tax (this is also applicable to out-of-state buyers who pick up their purchases in VA). 6. VA state law requires that all dealers have a valid, signed VA Dept. of Taxation Sales & Use Tax Certificate of Exemption on file with us (form ST-10 or ST-14). This is required per auction for non-VA dealers. We must also have a current copy of the non-VA dealer tax exemption certificate on file. 7. Absentee bids placed IN PERSON at our gallery are accepted any time prior to the sale of the lot. THE DEADLINE FOR ALL OTHER ABSENTEE BIDS IS TWO HOURS PRIOR TO THE START OF THE AUCTION. 8. On the Live Auctioneers platform, ON-SITE BIDDER or FLOOR BIDDER means any non-Live Auctioneers bidder; therefore it could be 1) someone physically present at the auction, 2) someone bidding remotely by telephone, or 3) someone who placed absentee bids directly with our auction house. 9. The auctioneer reserves the right to make verbal corrections to the catalogue and provide additional information from the auction block at the time of sale. Absentee bids placed directly with the auction house will not be executed on lots found to be other than as described in the catalogue unless a member of our auction staff has personally conveyed the updated catalogue description to the absentee bidder. The auction house does NOT have access to absentee bids placed through Live Auctioneers. 10. Requests for additional information or images on catalogued lots will be accepted until 24 hours prior to the start of the auction. 11. INVOICING: Our standard office hours are Mondays through Fridays from 9:00 AM until 5:00 PM USA Eastern Time.

PAYMENT: WE DO NOT ACCEPT PAYPAL. We accept cash, check, money order, VISA or MasterCard. If payment is made with an uncertified check, we hold items for up to 10 business days before releasing for pick up or shipping.

Measurements are guaranteed to be accurate to within one inch. Requests for more precise measurements must be received at least 24 hours prior to the start of the auction. 2. We are very meticulous in our description of the condition of each piece. Many of the minor flaws that we note are perfectly acceptable and do not detract from the item's desirability or value. We do not consider light wear, small manufacturing flaws, glass impurities or lightly tinted glass to be notable flaws. 3. If you are a bidder who demands flawlessness, it is recommended that you examine the item(s) in person, or have a trusted representative inspect the item(s) on your behalf. 4.

We only note condition issues that in our opinion significantly affect the integrity of the item. Returns will only be considered for items found to be fake/reproduction and/or have significant damage/restoration not noted in the catalogue description. 2.
