Skinner, Inc. - Conditions of Sale

1. Some of the lots in this sale are offered subject to a reserve. The reserve is a confidential minimum price agreed upon by the consignor and

Skinner, Inc. below which the lot will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated range, but in no case will it exceed

the estimates listed. A representative of Skinner, Inc. will execute such reserves by bidding for the consignor. In any event and whether or not a

lot is subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may reject any bid or raise not commensurate with the value of such lot.

2. All property is sold “as is,” and neither the auctioneer nor any consignor makes any warranties or representation of any kind or nature with

respect to the property, and in no event shall they be responsible for the correctness, nor deemed to have made any representation or warranty, of

description, genuineness, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, or condition of the property and no statement made

at the sale, or in the bill of sale, or invoice or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty of representation or an assumption of liability.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 1 above, the highest bidder as determined by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the case of a disputed

bid, the auctioneer shall have sole discretion in determining the purchaser and may also, at his or her election, withdraw the lot or reoffer the lot

for sale.

4. All merchandise purchased must be paid for and removed from the premises the day of the auction. Skinner, Inc. may impose, and the

purchaser agrees to pay, a monthly storage charge of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or portion of a lot not removed by the purchaser within

three (3) business days after the date of sale. Skinner, Inc. shall have no liability for any damage to property left on its premises for more than

three (3) days after the date of sale. At the option of Skinner, Inc., the merchandise may be transferred to and stored at a bonded warehouse and

the purchaser agrees to pay all transfer and storage expenses. Skinner, Inc. may impose, and the purchaser agrees to pay, a monthly interest charge

of 1.5% of the purchase price of any lot or item not paid by the purchaser within thirty-five (35) days of the date of sale.

5. Skinner accepts cash or check for payment. Personal checks will be acceptable only if credit has been established with Skinner, Inc. or if a bank

authorization has been received guaranteeing a personal check. Skinner, Inc. reserves the right to hold merchandise purchased by personal check

until the check has cleared the bank. The purchaser agrees to pay Skinner, Inc. a handling charge of $25.00 for any check dishonored by the

drawee. Please contact Accounting for additional payment methods. Skinner does not accept payment by credit card for merchandise purchases.

6. If the purchaser breaches any of its obligations under these Conditions of Sale, including its obligation to pay in full the purchase price of all

items for which it was the highest successful bidder, Skinner, Inc. may exercise all of its rights and remedies under the law including, without

limitation, (a) cancelling the sale and applying any payments made by the purchaser to the damages caused by the purchaser’s breach, and/or (b)

offering at public auction, without reserve, any lot or item for which the purchaser has failed to pay in full the purchase price, holding the

purchaser liable for any deficiency plus all costs of sale.

7. In no event will the liability of Skinner, Inc. to any purchaser with respect to any item exceed the purchase price actually paid by such

purchaser for such item.

8. Shipping is the responsibility of the purchaser. Upon request, our staff will provide the list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the

United States and overseas. Some property that is sold at auction can be subject to laws governing export from the U.S., such as items that

include material from some endangered species. Import restrictions from foreign countries are subject to these same governing laws. Granting of

licensing for import or export of goods from local authorities is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Denial or delay of licensing will not constitute

cancellation or delay in payment for the total purchase price of these lots.

9. All purchases are subject to the Massachusetts 5% sales tax unless the purchaser possesses a Massachusetts sales tax exemption number.

Exemption numbers from other states are accepted in Massachusetts if presented with a business card or letterhead. Dealers, museums, and other

qualifying parties can apply for a Massachusetts exemption number prior to the auction by contacting the Massachusetts Department of

Corporations and Taxation at 100 Cambridge Street in Boston.

10. Except for property purchased via on-line Live Auctions, a premium equal to 18.5% of the final bid price up to and including $200,000, plus

10% of the final bid over $200,000, will be applied to each lot sold, to be paid by the Buyer as part of the purchase price. The buyers premium on

property purchased via on-line Live Auctions will be in the amount equal to 22.5% of the final bid price up to and including $200,000, plus 15%

of the final bid over $200,000.

11. Bidding on any item indicates your acceptance of these terms and all other terms announced at the time of sale whether bidding in person,

through a representative, by phone, by Internet, or other absentee bid.

12. Skinner, Inc. and its consignors make no warranty or representation, express or implied, that the purchaser will acquire any copyright or

reproduction rights to any lot sold. Skinner, Inc. expressly reserves the right to reproduce any image of the lots sold in this catalogue. The

copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for Skinner, Inc. relating to a lot, including the contents of this

catalogue, is, and shall remain at all times, the property of Skinner, Inc. and shall not be used by the purchaser, nor by anyone else, without our

prior written consent.

13. These conditions of sale shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (excluding the laws applicable to conflicts or

choice of law). The buyer/bidder agrees that any suit for the enforcement of this agreement may be brought, and any action against Skinner in

connection with the transactions contemplated by this agreement shall be brought, in the courts of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or any

federal court sitting therein. The bidder/buyer consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waives objections that it may now or

hereafter have to the venue of any such suit.
