iCollector.com Technologies Ltd. ("IC") provides the following online services: absentee and real-time bidding for Live Auctions, as well as absentee bidding for Auction Catalogs, on its web site located at www.icollector.com (the "Site") where you may bid on items/lots ("Items") offered for sale by auction houses ("Sellers").

Items are sold subject to the terms and conditions of the Seller, which are accessible via a link at the end of each Item's lot page. It is your responsibility to read the Seller's terms and conditions carefully before making a bid.

Absentee bidding is a service whereby you can submit a bid to an auction house sale in advance of a live auction. Absentee bids are designed for those who wish to bid at an auction but who are unable to attend in person, or bid during the auction.

IC acts as a facilitator for the auction house by forwarding your bid along with your contact details when you submit an absentee bid on an item listed in an auction catalog on iCollector. Your bid will then be processed according to the individual auction house's commission bidding procedure as laid out in their terms and conditions. Please remember that bids you submit through iCollector may be outbid through the traditional channels of the auction house's bid acceptance process which includes: absentee bids submitted by phone, fax, and post or bids placed during the live auction.

After you place a bid through our system, IC will send you an email notifying you of your submission along with the details of the item on which you placed a bid. Your submission is then forwarded to the auction house where they process your bid.

IC is not a party to the transaction between you and the Seller for the sale of Items and, because of this, you accept that you will have no claim or cause of action against IC in respect of the sale (or non-sale) of any Item. If you have a dispute with a Seller or another user of the Site with regard to the sale (or non-sale) of any Item you agree that IC, its officers, agents, employees and other members of its group of companies (as defined by section 262 of the Companies Act 1985) will not be liable for losses (including, but not limited to, loss of profits, special loss, indirect loss and consequential loss), costs, damages, liabilities, claims, demands and expenses of any kind arising out of or connected with such dispute. You also accept that none of the aforementioned are under any obligation to take any action to resolve any dispute between you and a Seller, although if you do have a complaint then please e-mail support@icollector.com and IC will endeavor, if it deems it appropriate, to investigate the matter and assist in the resolution of the dispute.

IC is not responsible for any typographical, pictorial or technical errors in information about Items on the Site as provided by Sellers. IC does not evaluate Items and does not act as a specialist or expert on any related subject matter. IC makes no warranties or representation of any kind or nature with respect to Items (including but not limited to representations or warranties as to the accuracy of description, genuineness, quality, authorship, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin or safety). If you have any questions, e-mail the Seller directly. In particular, make sure that you understand the Seller's payment terms and shipping terms.

Your Username and password are required in order to place absentee bids in Auction Catalogs Making bids in a false name or with an invalid or stolen credit card is prohibited. Each bid carries the computer coding of the Internet provider, which allows the individual user to be traced and IC may at its discretion release this information to enable legal action to be taken. IC may, in its entire discretion, refuse or remove bids where it suspects that bids contravene this prohibition.

By placing a bid, you are making a binding and irrevocable offer to purchase the Item at any price up to your maximum bid amount you submit. If you win, you must complete the transaction, subject to any contractual right or other right at law to rescind the contract in certain circumstances. Failure to complete transaction without lawful reason is not only a breach of your contract with the Seller but also a breach of this User Agreement.

The amount bid can be increased but cannot be decreased. At our discretion, we may allow you to withdraw and resubmit a bid in the case of bids containing an obvious typographical error. You may forward a request to withdraw a bid and resubmit a correct bid by immediately sending a notice to support@icollector.com. However, there is no guarantee that any bid will be withdrawn. Although IC will use best efforts to forward all bids, IC does not accept any responsibility for lost bids or problems with the recipient auction house's ability to process your bid. Moreover, IC cannot guarantee that bids received will be processed by the individual auction houses.

Please note that IC's role is limited to the provision of the Site for dissemination and publication of information provided by the Sellers.

IC reserves the right to cancel our online bidding services because of technical difficulties experienced by IC on the Internet. IC will not have any liability or obligation to you as a result of any postponement, cancellation, or withdrawal by IC or termination by IC under this Section.

Many of the Items in listed in an auction catalog are subject to a reserve. A reserve is a confidential minimum price under which the Item will not be sold. In most cases, the reserve will be set below the estimated price range for the Item, but in no case will it exceed the estimates listed. Items that do not reach their reserve minimum will not be sold. Therefore, IC recommends that you bid the maximum amount that you are willing to pay for the item when submitting your absentee bid.

The winning bid in an auction will be the highest bid that exceeds any reserve. In the case of equal bids, the earliest bid received will be the winning bid. If a higher bid is subsequently withdrawn or removed then the auction house shall have the right to accept the next highest bid.

After the sale has ended, the auction house will notify the person making the winning bid via phone, fax or mail that they have won. If you do not receive notice that you have made the winning bid and think that you are the top bidder, you should check with the auction house directly.

You will make all payment for Items to the auction house in accordance with its terms and conditions. A successful bidder must make shipping and handling arrangements of items directly with the auction house or via their own designated shippers.

If you are a successful bidder, you are responsible for paying any buyer's commission, taxes and duties (including any VAT, sales tax and import duties) that may be imposed on the final price paid for an Item. Accordingly, it is your responsibility to check the applicable taxes and duties that may be imposed on an Item prior to bidding for it.
