WALKER’S CONDITIONS OF SALE
<BR>
<BR>The term “Auctioneer,” wherever used means Walker’s Fine Art & Estate Auctioneers Inc.

<BR>The Auctioneer strives to ensure accuracy in the description of every lot to be sold, however, prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine size, condition and whether or not it has been repaired, restored or altered. We strongly recommend that all lots be viewed personally. If you cannot examine the items personally, we encourage you to telephone, e-mail or fax us your request for a condition report prior to the sale. Every effort is made to ensure the correctness of all verbal and catalogue representations, and no sale shall be set aside on account of any imperfections not noted. Each lot is sold on an “AS IS,” “WHERE IS” basis.
<BR>
<BR>All bids are per lot. However, the auctioneer reserves the right to divide or join lots as he may see fit upon announcement of same.
<BR>
<BR>The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw or add to the items as listed in any prepared catalogue.
<BR>
<BR>The auctioneer has the right to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion. The highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer shall be the buyer and such buyer assumes full risk & responsibility thereafter. If a dispute arises, the auctioneer may at his discretion resell the lot or announce a decision immediately. The auctioneer’s decision in all cases shall be final.
<BR>
<BR>All lots are sold by the vendor with all faults and defects, with all errors of description and are to be paid for whether genuine and authentic or not. No compensation shall be paid for same.
<BR>
<BR>Notwithstanding the previous conditions of sale, if within (14) fourteen days after the auction the purchaser gives notice in writing to Walker’s that the lot sold is a deliberate forgery and within (7) seven days of such notification the buyer returns the same to Walker’s in the same condition as at the time of sale and satisfies Walker’s with the written opinion of two recognized experts in the field, that the lot is a forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded.
<BR>
<BR>The auctioneer shall have the right to bid or commission their staff to bid on behalf of any consignor.
<BR>
<BR>Each lot is sold subject to a Buyer’s premium, payable by all buyers on top of the purchase price. Buyer's premium is currently set in accordance with the industry standard at fifteen percent (15%) for our semi-annual fine art.
<BR>
<BR>Unless exempted by law, the purchaser must pay Ontario retail sales tax (PST) on the total purchase price. (Buyer’s not residing in Ontario are exempt if the purchase is shipped outside of the province by a commercial carrier.) GST is also charged on all lots with the exception of those exported by registered carrier from Canada.

Credit card payment may not exceed $25,000 or the cardholder’s limit, whichever is less. Property is released only after funds have cleared our bank.
