Modern Art & Antiques Session II

Most items in our auction are estate consigned. All items should be considered "as-is". We make every effort to accurately describe each lot using complete descriptions and detailed photographs. You may email or call us with any questions prior to bidding. All sizes, weights and ages of lots are approximate. We encourage you to visit and inspect all lots during preview and/or carefully examine all additional images provided with the online catalog and ask for more information, when needed. It is your responsibility to know what you are bidding on prior to placing any bids. Please note that any lot listed with "attributed" or "style" cannot be guaranteed to be the work of the noted artist or period. All sales are final. COINS AND RESTRICTED ITEMS: Some items are considered restricted commodities by Fedex and UPS which includes but is not limited to Coins, Currency and Bullion and cannot be insured by these carriers. If the buyer requests one of these carriers then the insurance liability falls upon the buyer. Coins and Currency can be shipped by USPS and can be insured. Ripley Auctions is only responsible for items while in our possession and we will not be responsible for an item after a carrier or third party shipper picks up the item(s). In the unlikely event of a lost or damaged item, it is the sole responsibility of the buyer to contact the carrier and have the insurance claim filed. REMOVAL: Removal shall be at the expense, liability, and risk of the purchaser. Ripley Auctions shall not be responsible for items not removed within 10 days of the auction. Lots not paid for and/or removed within the time specified may be resold at public or private sale without further notice. COMPLIANCE WITH TERMS OF SALE: The contract of sale may be considered, "in default", if payments are not received within 10 days of winning bidder's receipt of invoice. Legal action may be pursued against buyers in default on payment. All monies received as deposit or otherwise, will be retained for damages, when applicable. ADDITION TO OR WITHDRAWAL FROM SALE: Ripley Auctions reserves the right to withdraw from sale any item listed. DISPUTES BETWEEN BIDDERS: The decision of the auctioneer shall be final and absolute. PERSONAL PROPERTY AND RISK: After an item is declared "Sold" it becomes the sole responsibility of the successful bidder. Neither Ripley Auctions nor staff shall be liable by reason of any defect in or condition of the premises on which the sale is held. AGENT FOR SALE OF PROPERTY: Unless otherwise stated, Ripley Auctions is acting only as an agent for the consignor of property offered for sale, at auction or otherwise. The consignor may either be the seller of the Property or an agent for the seller. Ripley Auctions is acting as agent only and is not responsible for acts of its principals. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: Ripley Auctions accepts no liability for any failure of the Internet, whether in respect of end-to-end connectivity or any failure by any email to reach its destination within the expected time or at all. The maximum amount of Ripley Auctions liability to the Buyer for breach of our obligations, for negligence or otherwise (to the fullest extent that it is possible to limit such liability at law), shall be the successful Bid Price of an Item provided that the transaction has completed. If there has been no completion, Ripley Auctions accepts no liability to the buyer, to the fullest extent permissible. Buyer's Premium A buyer's premium of 30% will be added to all lots.
